I was fortunate enough to spend part of my day photographing the vibrant Longview Day of the Dead Festival alongside some good friends. Despite looming rainclouds and a few light showers, the event drew an incredible turnout… a true testament to the community’s spirit and love for tradition.
From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was buzzing with color, music, and the warmth of people coming together to honor loved ones and celebrate life. Everywhere I turned, there was something beautiful to capture, from intricate ofrendas and sugar skulls to dancers in traditional attire and families sharing stories and laughter.
Even though it felt like I was only there for a brief moment, it left a lasting impression. Events like this remind me why I love photography, not just for the images, but for the experience and the memories behind each shot. I’m already looking forward to next year’s celebration!
