Aunt Hilda’s Summer Sunset [Free] Photo Pop-up Series is launching in the Lower East Side starting July 16th — and it’s all about love, light, and community.

Each week, at 7:00PM, we’ll pop up in a new LES location, capturing golden-hour portraits of pet parents, couples, families, and friends —anyone who wants to freeze a beautiful moment in time. Whether it’s your pup’s first summer, your first date, or just a stroll with someone you love, this is your chance to be seen, celebrated, and remembered.

Why? Because I believe everyone deserves access to beautiful photography—at least once in their lifetime. Because storytelling through images brings us closer. And because building community through creativity is what fills my heart (and my camera roll).

Each participant will receive a "passport" to be stamped at every pop-up they attend. Collect them all and join us for a final celebration at Corlears Hook Park on August 27th, where your photos will be part of a community showcase under the setting sun.

🐾 Plus, each week we’ll spotlight a local LES business that’s shown love to our four-legged friends and supported pet parents through thick and thin.

Let’s uplift one another through digital storytelling, one frame at a time. Come for the photos, stay for the magic. 💙
