About Pride & Joy


Pride & Joy is a collection of photographs taken on Gay Pride Day in New York City.

Photographer Paul Kimball has walked in the annual LGBT Pride March every year for four decades. Since 2005, he’s been systematically documenting what the day looks like to him — as a participant — from inside the line of march.

Kimball has captured intimate portraits of hundreds of proud and joyful people, marchers as well as spectators and bystanders. The diverse crowd includes people of every age, race, ethnic group, religion, and cultural affiliation and every sexual orientation and gender identity.

The Pride & Joy project now includes a book with a generous sampling of the pictures. Pride & Joy: Photos from inside the line of march – Gay Pride New York, 2005­-2015 makes a remarkable souvenir of the Pride celebrations in those years.

The photographer is seeking a publisher for the book as well as gallery representation for the photos. For information, please send e-mail to info@prideandjoybook.com.
