Very excited to share that I was recently commissioned by Apple to highlight my hometown of Boston/Cambridge for their Black History Month series.

Text from Apple - “Introducing the Hometown series, starting in February for Black History Month. Every day, we’ll highlight the work of photographers from across the United States as they showcase a unique lens on their own hometown. #ShotoniPhone

Hometown Series — Day 12 of 32: Boston by@amaniwillett. Commissioned by Apple. “Historically, Boston has a reputation for not being the most hospitable place for minorities, especially Black folks. While the city is deserving of this reputation in many ways, there are pockets within Boston, precisely because of this friction, where there are really strong, thriving and supportive minority and Black communities. My aim was to celebrate these communities.”#ShotoniPhone by Amani Willett
