It is incredibly easy to shoot a child that is just standing and waiting for instructions. When we were getting Keira getting ready for her shoot I was ready for serious resistance… and none came. She was completely OK with us changing her clothes and shoes, taking her hat on and off and walking away …
I haven’t been hybernating. I’ve been redoing my site! But here is the first blog post of hopefully many more and it’s great to be back. I knew Rachel before she even met Jeff so it’s amazing to see her expecting. She has (since the time of the shoot) had a beautiful baby boy. Jeff …
Well, actually this is more of a photo story, so enjoy. And if you want to see their Baptism…. go right ahead!!!
Meet Simon the baby. I totally melt when I see him… how could you not? I knew David and Maya when they were still young and dating… wait, they are still really young. They are definitely one of my favorite families. Here is why I love slightly imperfect pictures. They convey a mood that traditional …
MYTH: In order to get a great background in a photograph you need to be either in a fancy or shabby-chic apartment, or outside surrounded by exotic flowers and fields of daisies. FACT: You don’t. Actually all you need is the following: – great lighting (can be natural light) – including what you want IN …
I’ve been documenting Maria’s family for a number of years now. Here is family photography the way I like to see it. I like to convey the mood more anything. But I feel that the advantage of having a manual fast camera gives me the amazing opportunity of freezing a moment that happens naturally. The …
As they say in Russia – someone must have died in the forest. Because something crazy has happened. But it’s true. My sister let me post a picture of herself on my blog. I wouldn’t dare make it the first one, but it is the third one, so scroll scroll. Incidentally, I’m also trying out …
A baby shoot.. that’s what. The shoot started at the couple’s home near For Tryon park, so it was easy to hop over to the luscious greenery. The photos pretty much speak for themselves, so enjoy : )
Meet Christina and her husband Charles. Christina is a huge photography enthusiast who turned to me in hopes of finding “their” photographer. She emailed me with the following: “My husband and I are obsessed with art and photos and we are looking for “our” photographer.” For this shot I wanted soft, fuzzy, sunny lighting so …
My niece started playing tennis around age 5. She now practices twice (!) a day and is home-schooled because of it. She’s at a pretty amazing level. My shutter speed for this image is 1/250 sec and as you can see, the ball is still slightly blurred, which tells you there was some definite speed. …
This shoot was styled and made possible (not to mention much easier) by Stilista Boston. As soon as I pitched the idea to my friend Maria she ran with it… like very fast. Cloth diapers and clothes pins were bought, in addition to bright red lipstick (which I realize doesn’t show on B&W images). Slips …
