Trend Hunter's Kristina Markovic is a photography fan especially attracted to the work of Rosie Holtom. One collection that really stood out to Kristina was Holtom's touching series pertaining to homelessness. In this fantastic [photography series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1), a variety of homeless people are photographed, but unlike most picture series of homeless individuals, this collection of photos captures homeless people looking their very best. In a marvelous monochromatic styling, the stars of this series are well dressed and looking like they've never endured a single struggle. The point of the series is to say that not all homeless people are addicts or mentally ill, like most stereotypes portray them to be.

Much like the [art of photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hipstamatic), Kristina is also a fan of the welcoming feeling she gets when she walks through the Trend Hunter doors.
