A BIT ABOUT MYSELF

Thank you for visiting my photo blog.

I'm based in Boston but can travel throughout New England for photo sessions. I shoot portraits and lifestyle photography and along with wedding photography I'm especially fond of photographing pets with their owners. My approach with pets is to capture them in a dignified and respectful way that expresses their unique qualities. My approach with people is similar in that I want a person to accept their uniqueness and all that it entails and let me find the best way to visually portray them. As to what my visual aesthetic is, my photos speak best to that.

The lifestyle approach to photography I follow is one in which above all else I want my subjects to be comfortable in their natural environment and interact as if I'm not there.

My blog is my way of showing my current work -- some professional work and some personal -- and also a means of sharing the gear I'm using and how I took some of the photos. I would encourage any readers of my blog to subscribe to my blog for alerts about specials I'm planning to offer in the near future.

Please leave a comment on any post as it's nice to hear feedback.

Please check back!

Kitty: Tilli Tomas Gig

Posted in Cats, yarn Tags: "Canon 5dmii", "cat model", "tilli tomas", Cat wearing scarves", ginger cat

Kitty helped me out last week while shooting some scarves that used Tilli Tomas yarn. Clearly he showed his best stuff for this shoot and really enjoyed wearing this beautiful yarn. The Tilli Tomas owners were very happy as well with his efforts. Sadly he had a tough week with his health this past weekend but he seems to be recovering and getting close to his old friendly self. No modleing for awhile – Drs orders.
