Hands Off

There’s a lot of angry people in this country in 2025, and that means a lot of passion, a vital ingredient for compelling photos and stories. The Hands Off Protest in San Diego in April 2025 was a vivid testament to this energy, as people gathered to express their beliefs and support their community. Through my lens, I captured the diverse emotions on display—determination, hope, and solidarity—illustrating the powerful human connections formed in the midst of collective expression. This series reveals the unique tapestry of voices that came together for a shared cause, showcasing the beauty of peaceful assembly and the importance of community engagement. The vibrant atmosphere and rich array of expressions make these images not just a reflection of a moment in time, but a celebration of the spirit of activism in our society today.
