Short Story: The Phone Booth
Title: The Phone Booth
With patience, she stands by the phone booth for the anticipated call with the understanding that it may never come.
The phone booth on the corner of the street does not ring.
Anxiously, with coins in hand, he rushes towards the phone booth to make a call that he knows might not get answered.
The phone booth on the corner of the street does not connect.
Detached, both walk away from the phone booth distraught with reignited grief.
Edible Chocolate Boxes Class at AIPD
I had an opportunity to follow students at the AIPD Culinary Department’s Chocolate Class. Their final project is to create an edible hexagon-shaped chocolate box filled with personally designed pieces within a 4 hour period. I photographed hour-2 and hour-4 of their process. I loved moving around the action and creating a photographic narrative of the students while witnessing the transformation of chocolate from cocoa bars into beautifully shaped hexagon chocolate boxes.
