From Ruddy Roye (@ruddyroye), photographing in Baton Rouge, La.: Cameron Sterling is only 15 years old. He is posing with a composite image he made this morning using a picture of himself and an old picture he had of his father. "The police took his phone so all the pictures he took are gone with his phone," he told me.

The whole time I am with him, he does not say more than two sentences without conjuring up some memory of his father that brings him close to tears. A song by Drake blares from his cell phone and he immediately starts a sentence with, "that was my dad's favorite song." He tries to smile. "Today has been a peaceful day so far. There was less drama today. It's quiet and calm today. But this morning started with my mom coming to get me so I can meet my lawyer and she had to call down to social services to get some money so our utilities would not be cut off.” Both Cameron and his mother Quinyetta seem to hold each other up with words of encouragement. "Why you crying now big boy, see I know my little teddy bear," she said smiling as she watched her son hold back his tears.
