28 at 28: an ongoing annual portrait series
by Sam Comen

In my late 20s, I felt that my peers were on the cusp. Some of my friends had found their path, yet others were directionless. I felt like the next few years would inform the rest of our lives—the perfect time to begin a document of my generation. So, when I turned 28-years-old, I photographed 28 of my 28-year-old friends.

The next year I shot as many of those same 28 friends as I could, and added another, making the project "29 at 29." I followed with "30 at 30," and I most recently completed "31 at 31" in late 2012. In years to come I'll continue this same format and follow this same group documenting each year of change.
