NEW YORK 2005

Mirelle and Amy, Brooklyn, NY. 2005 ©Molly Landreth


This is the beginning. I took this photo of Amelia (who I know as Amy) and her friend Mirelle, in Mirelle's McKibbin St apartment in Brooklyn oh so long ago.

Amy & I met through my roommate Jeremy (check him out HERE: "Gary and Jeremy, Brooklyn, NY") and became fast friends. We painted apartment walls, we tromped through knee high snow, we drank beer & talked love and art. Jeremy, Amy and Mirelle (who we will be visiting in MN on this trip!) were actually some of the first folks photographed for this project!!

Now it has been 4 stinkin' years since I've seen Miss Tovey and in one week she's going to show up at my house in West Seattle with her bags packed and her camera ready. ....and together, much like we started, we will finish this project!! -ML

I'm sure I could squeeze Jacob into my back pack ;) But for now I guess i'll just have to settle for Helsinki... Take care and don't do anything I wouldn't ;) Love always, Your friend in the North and baby Jacob xxx
