The dead-end alley is in NYC's Lower East Side and is about 300 feet long, starting from the north side Rivington Street between the Bowery and Chrystie Street. I read it might be named for Uzal Freeman, a surveyor who in 1810 lived in the area, or for the Second African Burial Ground, a cemetery for black New Yorkers.
I used my Fuji X-Pro3 fitted with a fujinon 16mm, and set the images' format to a 16:9 aspect ratio. However, when I am photographing a model, I'll be using the medium format GFX50S/GFX50R with a 45mm and a 63mm...as I prefer to photograph horizontal frames, the narrowness of the alley will be a challenge, and will force me to (i) photograph at an angle, and choose the spots (as in the center of the alley), (ii) photograph verticals, (iii) photograph horizontal half body length and portraits and perhaps use a X-Pro3 with a 12mm wide angle lens for some of the frames.
For my larger sized photographs, drop by Freeman Alley here.
