I consider myself an honorary New Yorker, though I was born and raised in the suburbs of New Jersey.

Having both lived in the city for long periods of time, my parents made sure I grew up going to NYC as often as possible-- and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade was always another perfect excuse to head into the city. As I got more and more into photography over the years, the more I wanted to record how I saw the city, as an honorary New Yorker, at an event traditionally geared towards tourists.

This book documents my family's usual routine on parade day--arriving in the city, traveling to my dad's office (which serves as our "home base"), watching the parade, and heading back home--while looking back at our memories of the parade through the years.
