Inspired at the Cape

September 17th, 2009

Children Photography
We took a very fun mini-break with our fabulous friends over at MKD Photography. It was relaxing, re-inspiring, and awesome re-connecting with our friends. We used to live a couple miles away and now we live about an hour away and that makes it impossible to stay involved in the day-to-day. Kate came up with the fabulous idea that both families do a joint vacation.

These are just a few of the pictures… most – I have to be honest – that I created I used Mike and Kate’s camera – the one I’ve been drooling over from a distance. Now there is no turning back. A big camera purchase will happen in the near future. Very exciting. Now I’m knee deep in research…. before we’re off to Vermont for the weekend. Seniors, families, and a fun wedding celebration with friends who were married last month in Ireland.
In the meantime I’m just going to relax looking at this view that was right below our cottage on the Cape:

This time last week….

July 25th, 2009

… I was coming home from the 2009 Scott Kelby Photo Walk. It’s a world-wide event where photographers of every level meet in their city and spend a couple hours looking at their city through the camera lens. It was very fun to connect with other photographers and see Providence in a different light…. mostly a humid and cloudy light.
Here are my favorites from the event:

Happy Fourth!

July 4th, 2009

Hope your fourth has been as relaxing and enjoyable as mine. I still have one more sneak peak blog entry from our week in Vermont that I can’t wait to share! I plan to post the pictures of the finally-engaged-Brian-and-Laura in the next couple days. Just wait until you see their smiles.
In the meantime… Happy Fourth!

Where I’ve been

June 28th, 2009

June has been slow blog-wise because I have been in VT for most of the month…. not photo-shoot free though. There are posts to follow that will reveal all that I’ve been up to. In the meantime… here’s a slice of VT:

Off to reply to the 30 emails that are waiting for me in my inbox.

An actor

March 6th, 2009

My brother contacted me to ask if I could do head shots for him.
He needs them for his resume- he’s a theater major.
Sure, no problem.
They were soooo fun! What a change from new babies:) I love love the snuggly little people but it’s also fun to tell someone to move this way or that and… they do it! I couldn’t convince my brother to curl into a ball with a blanket wrapped around him but it turned out we still got some great head shots.


I know, I know- my baby brother is a senior in college (except he’s on the five year plan…) but this shoot made me really look forward to the start of high school senior portrait season!

He’s in a play in April that I can’t wait to see! When I know more details I’ll update this post.

And just for fun…

Thank you for thinking of me when you knew you needed head shots, Douglas. It was great to see you. Hope you’re having a blast with your nephew (my son) this weekend!

Sugar Fire Jewellery

February 27th, 2009

Erin, of Sugar Fire Jewellery contacted me about doing some product images for her of her unique nature inspired jewelery. I loved that she was able to give me specific ideas about what she was looking for in the images.
I love love working with people and capturing the spontaneity and uniqueness of individuals. Every once in a while though it’s fun to do something a little different.

I think this one is my favorite:


It’s been fun working with you Erin. Good luck in all your future business endeavors!

Baby shower recap

February 16th, 2009

Wow! What a fun shower. The mom-to-be, Dani, looked amazing and her mother-in-law was a wonderful party-thrower. Do you see these adorable treats?

After opening my gift Dani quickly realized that this means I HAVE to make the trek up to NH soon. It was hard to tell if that was more exciting for Dani or the photo shoot and birth announcements:)

I thought the favors were too cute. Each container is labeled “sweet pea” and there is a sweat pea planted inside. Love it.

I am counting the days (well… you know what I mean) until I can come and hang out with you, Dani and Brian… and your brand new baby. Can’t wait!

Baby Shower Gift

February 15th, 2009

I’m really really hoping that my friend, that will remain name-less (for now) won’t check this blog this morning.
Surely she’s too busy preparing to go to her mother in laws for another baby shower (her’s- and it’s not a surprise).
I just wanted to show you what I’m giving her.
This is the front:

And this is the back:

I’m so excited to be able to give this to my friend. I will be sure to report back what her reaction was to the gift. Must go get ready for the day of fun up in NH.

Valentine’s Day

February 13th, 2009


I hope you enjoy a day of spending time with those you love.

Is it spring yet?

January 31st, 2009

My potted Shasta Daisy thinks so.


I love snow…. but a balmy spring day would be very appreciated right about now.
