This Bushwick Life: Bodeguita Bar (Brooklyn, NYC)

This Bushwick Life is a blog centered around the people who make up the colorful neighborhood of Bushwick (where I live!). Their goal is to highlight and promote the folks living here who normally don’t get much exposure from mainstream media outlets when they report on this area of Brooklyn. From residents, to business owners, to community organizations, TBL aims to be inclusive of the entire community.

In this installment, we got some behind-the-scenes photographs and interviewed the owners and employees of the local bar Bodeguita.

Here are a few of my favorite shots from this session (click to view un-cropped):

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D750, using an AF-S Nikkor 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 lens, and individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using my own custom presets.
