PORCH-RITZ

Mar 26

Photos of New Haveners (and a few beyond New Haven) during this time of social distancing and quarantine due to the current COVID-19 Pandemic. The goal of Porch-Ritz is to help us feel more connected and to break the monotony of isolation. All of these photos were taken with a telephoto lens and from a distance of at least 15 feet.

I originally planned to publish these photos on I Love New Haven, my photo blog that celebrates New Haven through photography, but there wasn’t a way to do that and present the images in a slideshow gallery like they are here.

Please consider me for photography services that you might need in the future after we get through this, or if you’re ever looking for iconic New Haven photographs, I have a New Haven Prints section on this website.

I also have a photo booth business, The Notorious P.I.C, that specializes in brand activations, corporate events, permanent installations, and weddings, so please keep me in mind for that too. I can’t wait to start working and making money again.

I’d like to send a special thanks to my partner and love, Teresa. She’s my #1 support and source of encouragement. Teresa put up with me and my crazy schedule while working on this project to get all 137 photos done in ten days. Most of the time she was my driver too!
