"The Scallopers on Cape Cod Bay" - A New Photo Booklet Now Available
I'm thrilled to announce the publication of my latest photography Booklet, "The Scallopers on Cape Cod Bay," a visual journey documenting my day at sea with Captain Christopher Milewski and Captain Michael Milewski aboard their scalloping vessel out of Provincetown Harbor.
This project took me aboard the working vessel as the Milewski brothers pursued their livelihood on the waters of Cape Cod Bay. From the pre-dawn departure from Provincetown Harbor through the hard work of launching and landing the scallop dredge, to the meticulous process of shucking the day's catch. Commercial scalloping has sustained Cape Cod's fishing families for generations.
A day in the grit of this work didn't just renew my admiration for our local fishermen - it reminded me that what they do is not a vocation, it's a life fully lived.
"The Scallopers on Cape Cod Bay" is now available for purchase $19.60 print and $5.00 digital through MagCloud.
This Booklet is dedicated to Elizabeth Anne Brooke – my muse, my keen-eyed editor, my truest north, my anchor in all seas.
Thank you to Captains Christopher and Michael Milewski for welcoming me aboard and sharing their world with such generosity and patience.
