I am many things.
If you found this from my artsier Instagram page, you’ll already know that I often prefer to have words to go along with my images.
Call it vanity, call it ADHD, I just sometimes need people to know what I think. This is the space for me to discuss that.
This is also the space for me to write voluminously at/about/around pictures I take. It’s a safe bet, at this point, that I “yearn to be a street photographer”.
(Hence the title.)
As such, this blog will be random writings couched in the language of “here’s words needed to make more sense of the world around me”.
This intro, like me (and us all), is a work in progress.
This is how we win
Porchfest is exactly as you’re imagining. A bunch of houses in a neighborhood block in Tacoma hosting outdoor music shows. People bringing their families and kids to listen to music, engage in community, to be around each other. And beyond that, it provided an opportunity and a space for everyone in the area to remember that this is how we win.
