Trinity Boston Foundation

Over the past year i've been lucky to do some work for the Trinity Boston Foundation and have been exposed to a wide array of people I would have never had the chance to meet. Located in Trinity Church in copley sq, the foundation seeks to bring together groups such as schools, NPO's, corporations and individuals; pooling its resources to create programs that enrich and benefit the community as a whole. I've met hilarious middle schoolers, "court involved" MC's and the formerly homeless all through the work i've done for the foundation. It truly is amazing.
Earlier this summer they had me come in to shoot candids and portraits of kids in the TEEP program.
Elaine Chow, my friend and the associate director of the foundation, sums it up better than I can: "TEEP is a free, out-of-school time program for Boston Public middle and high school students. It includes an intensive summer program and year-round activities, and it strikes a balance of focus between academics and leadership development. TEEP commits to its students for the long-term, often working with them from 7th grade through to high school graduation, and it has helped many students go on to colleges throughout the region."

exactly, amazing.

Here is some of the recent work I shot there:
