The Commuter
Anthony has always been drawn to the moments in between—the quiet rituals that stitch a day together. For this shoot, he and his team turned their attention to the daily commute, that stretch of time a man spends alone with his bike as he eases into the city.
There’s no rush. No destination dominating the mind. Just the rhythm of pedaling and the little pauses that make the ride its own kind of meditation: answering a quick call, checking the chain, snapping a photo of the morning light, breathing in the sea air, stopping for coffee, letting music fill the space between thoughts.
They’re the kinds of moments most people overlook. But for this commuter, they’re everything—a reset, a way to arrive in the city already grounded before the day even begins.
Co-directing alongside the gifted director of photography Marcos Rocha, Anthony set out to capture that feeling. Together, they followed the effortlessly charismatic Zach Ho-Seher on his daily ride from Oakland to San Francisco, documenting the commute not as a chore, but as a ritual.
