Waterfront Wednesday at Riverfront Park in Hudson is the kind of buoyant community gathering that makes one wonder if they should move to this city. When we set up our pop-up shoot there in early August, the park was brimming with life, the city’s residents buzzing around the park, engaging with the vendors, taking in the performances by local teens, and joyously greeting each other like it was a holiday. Just glorious. All photos by David McIntyre. Photos from this shoot can be purchased via this link.
