THE BLOG

I was a cheerleader in high school. Back then, cheerleading tread a fine line between “sport” and “best way to get on the bus with cute boys in football pants.” Yes, we did a few jumps and kicks and an occasional lopsided pyramid, but mostly it was just a bunch of yelling and flipping of […]

I met Emily for the first time the afternoon we did her Senior Photo shoot. When she got there, she asked if she looked okay. OKAY? I was only partially blinded by the biggest blue eyes of ALL TIME. So yes, Emily, you look pretty much awesomely okay. Add to that the fact that BOTH […]

I stole my title from Abby’s instagram account; that she’s a Beatles fan too explains why I felt like I was photographing one of my oldest friends while the two of us were working together. Abby is an old soul with a youthful energy and I think that combination really radiates from her photos. We […]

I met Ben and Lesley on a Sunday morning at Flour in Cambridge. A conservative estimate would be that there were 600 million people in there. Not the best conditions for showing a portfolio and discussing wedding photography, but after just a few minutes of sitting with these two wonderful people, it felt like we […]

Everyone in town knows Emily. She’s been teaching sailing forever, it seems, and when I told some friends that I was taking her Senior photos, I got lots of happy squeals about how AWESOME she is and how MUCH all the kids love her. I thought she was pretty great too — she brought along […]

This is a blog post in two parts. Emily contacted me a month or so ago and asked me if I would shoot her senior photos, and then asked if she could bring a friend along. This is fairly common, so I said yes and thought she’d be bringing one of her girlfriends for support […]

I first met Mariah last year when I did her family photos. Instantly I fell in love with her perfect skin, her beaming smile, and her fabulous pink braces. Even though she rocked the braces for that shoot, this one is extra special. Not only are these Mariah’s Senior photos, but they’re also the first […]

I first met Lauren and James at one of the cafe tables in a Whole Foods. It was an unusual place to take a client meeting, but it really set the stage for how unique and balanced these two are, and right away I knew that I wanted to not only shoot their wedding, but […]

Recently, I was discussing the “look” of senior photos with a few teenagers, and I asked them if they thought anything about today’s seniors will look dated in 30 years. Like this: (It was the 80s. Mullets were very hip.) The general consensus (wrong or right) was no, that today’s teens are less trendy and […]

This next week marks the culmination of Things That Will Probably Make My Head Blow Up; I have to be out of my current house and into a new house on Sunday, but I’m shooting a wedding on Sunday (and my brides always come first!) so I have to somehow cross the time-space continuum and […]
