Married the love of my life one week ago 🥺 that very night we had our “engagement” party except our guests didn’t know we already said “I do” that morning!!! While we played some of our favorite songs on vinyl, Curtis Mayfield, Missy Elliot, Frankie Ruiz, we chose our favorite Stevie Wonder song to make our special announcement ❤️ a perfect day, a perfect night, I would do it all over 100 times.

Thank you to @aftermath.nyc for letting us host the party of our dreams 🎊

My family is not asking for a miracle — we are asking for a chance to be safe. 🕊️🇵🇸
I’m Dina, from Gaza. My family and I are holding on to hope while trying to escape a life that has become impossible to live safely.
We want nothing more than a safe place to live, continue our education, and rebuild the future we once dreamed of.
If you can donate, please do. If you can’t, sharing this campaign is also a powerful act of support.
One share can reach the person who changes everything. 🤍

BRONX BLUE // 5-2-26 🩵🌷🌊

my first cyanotype workshop was incredible :^) with the sun 🌞 coming out (I was worried it was going to rain!) to seeing everyone’s faces when their images and artwork came to life in the water - everything was perfect !!

Thank you to @dabxposure for the opportunity to give an affordable workshop to BX peeps who want to learn new practices that are often gate-kept or behind paywalls! Education must be free, and I learned photography through free community programs so I’m hoping to pay it forward.

The response to Bronx Blue was so supportive, should we do this again? 🌱
