Festival of Light, 2021
Festival of Light 2019 was the last event I photographed for the San Diego Lao American Community. 2 years later, as we are still pushing through the pandemic, I went out and photographed the Festival of Light this year, October 2021. It only felt right to come back and re-connect with the community through the camera with the same event. Everyone was happy to see each other. There was a sense of hope in the event, a sense that things will get better. Take a look and see for yourself.
