When he’s behind the lens, @largecrewneck gravitates towards life’s in-between moments ☀️ Subtle glances and gestures, and intimate, almost imperceptible, interactions that others might take for granted. “I love finding those cropped moments that give you a sense of the experience without giving you the entire picture,” the Montreal-based nightlife photographer tells Dazed. “It’s not about capturing high drama or trying to force a mood.” His favourite image taken so far this year; two pairs of feet dangling from a hammock by a lakeside; was captured at this summer’s edition of #BestOutOfTown - a small, word-of-mouth festival held in Northern Ontario. Initiated in 2020, the campout is the creation of Best In Town Sound, a volunteer-run, community-focused party collective of “dance music adorationists” based between Toronto and Montreal. Growing from about 30 guests in its first edition to 250 this year, it has become a space for connection and reflection for its attendees, and Lisaj’s involved yet indirect approach to image-making proved perfect for documenting it.
