Street Focus 78: #DoSomethingForNothing with Joshua Coombes and Laurent Demartini
A few months ago I received a touching email from Joshua Coombes in the UK. He reached out to ask if I could document his #DoSomethingForNothing project, cutting hair of the homeless on the streets of Paris in December. I immediately wanted to take part but unfortunately I was not going to be in Paris that week. I immediately contacted local photographer Laurent Demartini to see if he could help Josh. Laurent's response was exactly what I was hoping it would be. He loved the project and agreed to help him out. Thus began a new friendship around a beautiful project.

Who is Joshua?
My name is Joshua Coombes. I'm 28 years old, born in the U.K. I've lived in either Britain or Australia as well as travelling throughout Europe. My passions in life are cutting hair, playing music and dreaming up ways to change the world (In no particular order).
Keep in touch with Joshua and support his #DoSomethingForNothing project. Visit Laurent Demartini's website.
