My assignment was to shoot a weeknight dinner at a multigenerational home in Laredo, Texas. My day included just under 500 miles of driving to and from Laredo and 3 hours of shooting once I got there. I was thrilled to be included in this beautiful, worldwide collaboration of photographers, but wanted to share some of the images I captured during the assignment that weren’t published.
Here’s a link to the published piece. Scroll down to the “Texas, United States” section to see my image.
