Havana Now

Havana Now My name is Adria and I take small groups of iPhoneographers to Havana, Cuba. I am a travel photographer and my medium of choice is my iPhone.

I take small groups, 4-6 people to the streets of Havana. I like to move slowly, I enjoy working with people one on one and i love mastering the skill that is my iPhone. I have had all the gear and the weight finally got me. For my creative expression - less is more.

It’s game day in NYC - first game of the finals, and hopes and dreams are running wild. Life long Knick fans are yet to see their team take home this title, and it is in reach.

Hopes and dreams are risky business. At some point I realized Cubans haven’t had much reason for either in several generations.

Today I am filled with hope and am reminded of how powerful it is to have dreams. Be brave, be strong, and dream big! History is changing in front of our very eyes.

Last month in Havana and I took the ferry to Casa Blanca - it’s just across the harbor and provides such a different view and feel than Havana. There were tons of kids swimming, a small beach and then this fisherman. He was definitely the highlight of my day. and joined us and both have great images. I love seeing how all four of us experienced the same surroundings. Pamela got great pictures on the beach and of the swimmers - I just couldn’t find a groove. I learn from seeing through her eyes and look forward to seeing Ana and Adrienne’s images.

This basketball / football court was around the corner from me on this last visit. One of my favorite things about hanging out where they play ball is that all generations co exist and play together. One this day not only did we have fluidity in age but also games. It was mostly basketball ball but also soccer and then also the graffiti artists were at work and playing ball. A great mashup in my book.

There’s an obvious place to start when it comes to telling a story about Cuba - you start with the people. You will never meet more kind, warm hearted, generous, resilient humans.

Loving the remnants of rain in Havana today. There are so many moments in this city that give you pause. It could be now, it could be before. It could be the beginning of the end or just more of the same. What we know is that know one knows. With a slightly different edit you truly would have no idea.

Feeling quite lucky to be waking up at .miamor these days. I’m in the heart of Old Havana and love this view from the rooftop patio. Havana is not for the weak of heart right now but if you have an adventurous spirit and like to skip the crowds Havana sure would love to see you. 🫶🇨🇺🙏

I have been in Havana for about three days, so much to say and so much to share - sometimes I get lost as to where to start. For this moment, I have appreciation for this mama cat. Much more to come.

Havana | Malecón November 2019. Probably an iPhone 11 PRO MAX. I have learned that what I am documenting is what is not there. It’s not that there aren’t any fisherman it’s just that there’s not nearly as many as there used to be. I’ll be heading to Havana next week and what I will now be documenting are the empty streets. A massive decline in population, combined with almost no tourism has created an entirely different city landscape.

My first trips to Havana were in 2016. I very rarely saw skaters and I didn’t see the younger generations displaying as much self expression. The think I appreciate the most is that they are kind. Well - maybe kind of bossy. They like to tell me what shots to take and they feel like art directors. I’m not complaining ! They’re great, I can sit here for hours.
