A Decade of Empowering Local Creatives

Since its founding in 2015, Following Boston has become a cornerstone of the city’s creative community, launching the careers of hundreds of photographers and media creators while shaping the storytelling landscape. What began as a documentary series highlighting Boston photographers, including Kevin O’Leary (“Mr. Wonderful” from Shark Tank), has grown into a platform renowned for its collaborations with world-class brands and institutions such as The Grammy Awards, HBO & Marvel Entertainment.
