Originally I began the Sleeper series as a lark, taking photos when I happened to have my camera around people sound asleep.

To continue with the project, I developed a few new approaches to documenting slumber.

In order to photograph myself asleep I set my camera timer to go off
every minute beginning at sunrise. For months I would carefully set the
camera up before bed and wake in the morning, excited to see what was
captured while I slept.

Enough friends have heard about this project that I've been getting
offers to stay overnight on the couch and photograph them. Meghan was
one of those willing participants.
