This is the very first place I fell in love with in Philadelphia. It was 2006. For the first time I was living in a real city, and I walked with my classmates until we found a bridge and forest. We would return at all hours of the day to shoot landscapes, hike, and explore. It felt even until I visited for the last time in 2017 as if it was our private escape.
The trails of this place the Wissahickon run seemingly forever. From creek to river nearly to downtown the green space is so expansive that getting away from everybody is very easy.
This shoot with Miranda will always be one of my favorites. A print of the preview image has hung in three places Nicole and I call home. I miss this forest. I hope that some day soon I can return for another visit.
