The Candid Chronicles of a Community in Motion
If Marshall Morgan had a superpower, it was being everywhere at once. "Around Town with Marshall" showcases his uncanny ability to document Wilmington's daily pulse—those everyday moments that rarely make headlines but truly define a community.
Beyond the Big Events
While others brought their cameras to planned celebrations, Marshall captured life as it happened:
The first day of school and the last day before summer
Mom-and-pop shops that served as the backbone of our neighborhoods
Street performers who turned ordinary corners into stages
Weather events that brought neighbors together
The changing seasons reflected in familiar landscapes
Wilmington's Unofficial Visual Diary
From 1979 to 2004, Marshall created a visual journal of our community—documenting how we dressed, where we gathered, what made us laugh, and how our town evolved through economic booms and quiet transformations.
The Perfect Stranger
Marshall had a gift for becoming invisible with his camera. His subjects rarely posed—they lived, allowing him to capture authentic moments that reveal the true character of our community. In these candid shots, you'll find the unguarded spirit of Wilmington.
Your Daily Life, Preserved
Were you shopping downtown on a random Saturday? Getting coffee at a local café? Walking your dog along a neighborhood street? Marshall might have preserved that ordinary moment—now extraordinary through the lens of time.
