New Years with the Romps

Taken at Jane Street Park in lower Manhattan, these portraits tell the story of the Romp family. For the past 20 years they have camped out on the corner of Jane and Eighth Avenue selling Christmas trees every holiday season. From Thanksgiving Day to Christmas Day they are the vital part of the community's holiday spirit, each taking turns outside to mingle in the cold. We look forward heading up to Vermont to spend the New Year's with such a lovely bunch!!

Warm wishes for the holidays!
