Two girls prancing through a meadow.

By Michela Brittis-Tannenbaum

When my hometown friends come back together from university over the summer, we excitedly make a summer bucket list, and every time, a picnic and a photoshoot always makes the cut. This past year, those of us who could make it decided to combine the two with a home-cooked meal, vaguely coordinated outfits, and cameras weโ€™ve only just begun to understand. We pranced in the grass,ย  feeling light and dreamy one moment and the next, tumbling to the ground and yelling incoherently. A day full of laughter and frolic is forever captured, and the tradition continues.


Michela Brittis-Tannenbaum (she/her) โ€˜25 is a senior majoring in Architecture and Environment, Sustainability, and Policy. Sheโ€™s discovered a love for fashion, cooking, baking, taking long walks, and can be found constantly listening to some sort of music or video. Sheโ€™s always enjoyed creative ventures as an outlet and reprieve from everyday life, exploring different mediums over the years (although sheโ€™ll always come back to drawing and photography), and hopes itโ€™ll follow her for years to come.
