I grew up in Massachusetts and was raised by lesbians—so that meant my summers were spent visiting Provincetown (Ptown), a small seaside town at the northern tip of Cape Cod. Ptown is one of the country's oldest art colonies. For centuries, an eclectic mix of fishermen, artists, writers, Portuguese immigrants, and members of the LGBTQ+ community have called it home.

I moved to Washington DC in 2022, and have since built a life here with my partner. But like a homing pigeon, I return to Ptown every Summer to vacation with my friends. Throughout the years I’ve documented our trips on film, which have turned into a personal time capsule of me and my chosen family having an absolute ball.
