5 Points Photo Shoot Featured in the Times Union

Wingard Creative, 5 Points and Ezra Marcos receive some good press

The article An Arlington photographer captures Five Points on film appeared in the Times Union last Thursday and discusses how we worked with Ezra Marcos to capture 5 Points on film for a time capsule.

Wingard Creative hired photographer Ezra Marcos Ayala to shoot photographs during the First Friday celebration in Five Points in May. Once a month, businesses in the eclectic district stay open late and offer specials. “Ezra’s photos were amazing,” David Wingard, owner of Wingard Creative on Park Street in Five Points. “He has a great style and is a great guy.” Originally, Wingard Creative commissioned the photos as a favor to Riverside Presbyterian Church, which had wanted some photos for a time capsule. But many of the images were taken in bars such as the Lomax Lounge.
