What an honor to discover I made a list of best street photographers in Denver by Peerspace. I didnt even know about this until another street photographer on Instagram put it in his stories. I’ve never made a ‘Best of list’ and feel this is such an accomplishment to know that people are recognizing my work.
My First Newspaper Assignment with Denver Voice
I recently become a contributor to the Denver Voice, a free newspaper here in Denver that facilitates a dialogue addressing the roots of social injustices while offering economic, educational, and empowerment opportunities to impoverished communities.
I was thrilled to receive my first assignment, photographing a Covid-19 vaccination event at Lincoln High School. The vaccination clinic was focused on Latino’s & minorities, which make up less than 30% of Denver’s Covid vaccinations. The event didn’t have a high turnout but it was great experience shooting my first assignment for a news organization.
Juneteenth 2021
in Events
Denver is one of the biggest Juneteenth celebrations in the country and this year President Biden signed Juneteenth into law as a Federal Holiday. The Denver Five Points neighborhood came up and showed out with so much support and Black Pride for this years celebration. From Hip-Hop & Jazz music, majorettes, dancers, black Caribbean flavor and car rally this years event was spectacular!
