nikki . 34 years old / somerville . massachusetts
something terrible happened today. i lost my only consistent source of income. shortly after i got up today, i discovered that everything in my life turned upside down and even the very few stable things are unfortunately built on sand.
with that said, this project is my love and i did not neglect it. at the beginning of my walking route, i saw nikki pushing her daughter, róisín, in a baby carriage. i walked by them, planning to move on, but something stopped me.
nikki, as a young irish woman, came here 10 years ago. she still has her accent, which is just marvelous. she had just dropped something in a mailbox when i approached her.
she graciously agreed to be a part of this project. she was so calm and had an obvious love for her daughter. her spirit brought my anxiety to a bearable level. i get something from this project every day - sometimes it is something monumental.
i took a couple shots of nikki with róisín, but they did not turn out so well, so i chose not to include them today.
