“She said I think I’ll go to Boston…
I think I’ll start a new life,
I think I’ll start it over, where no one knows my name” ~AUGUSTANA- Boston (Play Song>>>>>>Boston)
Some of you may know by now that I have recently made a huge change in my life. I have moved to Boston! I have landed a job at Fenway Park for the Red Sox season taking photos of fans at games and working at the stadium for tours during the day. I will also be working special events at the park and around Boston like the recent outdoor concerts of Bruce Springsteen. Hopefully, it won’t hinder my blogging because I absolutely love sharing my life through my photography.
I really haven’t had a chance to take many photos since I have been here. I traveled up with my younger brother, Jamin, and his two friends, Ben and Brad, almost 3 weeks ago! My first week here was spent editing a wedding I had recently shot in Kentucky. I then completed my interview, paperwork, and training at Fenway. Followed by my parents’ visit, as Ben and Brad headed home from their lovely vacation. I spent most of the time my parents were here working and trying to settled in. Bless their heart, they spent most of their “vacation” helping me. I couldn’t ask for more amazing parents.
It is just now hitting me that I LIVE in Boston. In fact, I’m not just in Boston, but the North End of Boston. If you aren’t familiar with this city, this area is Little Italy, a quaint and historic part of the city. I couldn’t ask for better thanks to my brother, Trey; I am truly blessed at the moment.
Now that I have shared my recent life changes, I would like to share some photos of the moments I have been able to capture since I have been here.
First stop, the rooftop view of downtown Boston…
Then, a trip to Samuel Adams Brewery…
Adventuring around the North End…
The Paul Revere Statue and Mall.
The Armed Forces Memorial Garden.
He said to his friend, “If the British march
By land or sea from the town to-night,
Hang a lantern aloft in the belfry arch
Of the North Church tower as a signal light,–
One if by land, and two if by sea; ~ Paul Revere’s Ride by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The Paul Revere House on the left is downtown Boston’s oldest building.
St Stephen Catholic Church located in the North End.
