So when I saw this on Devour I kind of rolled my eyes a bit before reading their ever-alluring bio. Anyway, it’s about a photographer in Toronto who simply takes a ton of self-portraits. What I find interesting is that he works a 9 to 5 but strived to make the shots interesting. And then there’s his battle with cancer - overall just an incredible story.</p>http://blog.jonschafer.com/post/15420315508http://blog.jonschafer.com/post/15420315508Fri, 06 Jan 2012 15:35:15 -0800<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxd1anHtqt1qifn2ao1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>This image will hereby serve as the designer’s outfit.
