All That I Have Are These To Remember You: Photo Organization
My parents travel to Florida to visit my great-grandmother, Margaret Elizabeth, my namesake. My mother is pregnant with me. My father sets up his camera on one side of the pool, puts the self-timer on, and rushes around to the other side to jump into the frame. “Photographs and memories Christmas cards you sent to…
Read MoreDrone Portraits on a Tennis Court: What Goes Up, Must Come Down
One of the nice things about taking cool drone portraits of your sister is that when your son crashes the session, she doesn’t mind! Tessa is always up for some cool photo collaborations, even when they involve a toddler. I bought cases of tennis balls (which have since found good homes) to spread out around…
Read More2020 Summer Sessions: Lenny Bruce Is Not Afraid
It has been so long since I’ve blogged, I don’t even know where to begin. To recap, I was exposed to Covid-19 way back in the beginning of it all and spent all of March (and the first few days of April) essentially isolated in my bedroom. It was rough. But I was definitely one…
Read MoreBoston Acting Headshots: How the Camera Can Reply
Every once in a while, I receive an inquiry from a creative about needing some headshots – musicians, artists, actors, other photographers, etc. It’s always fun to photograph people outside, but sometimes you need something a little more studio-style. Ands sometimes it’s just too damn cold out. So, when the day of Emily’s session came,…
Read MoreRemembering a Friend Today: It's Seasoned My Soul
Your black Gap tank top sits in my drawer, at the bottom of a pile of long-sleeved shirts. I don’t take it out anymore, but I love just knowing that it’s there. It’s traveled with me to five different homes. Your CD single of Cher’s Believe, the one with an hour of the same song over…

Drew turned one back in the beginning of January. Gah. Time flies by when you’re this adorable. We celebrated with a little family party, in the colors of the Miami Dolphins (that’s my brother’s influence). It was so fun to watch Drew try to process everything that was happening. All of his grandparents were in…
Read MoreDirt Floor Recording Session, Krista Baroni: Curl Up With A Cup of Halcyon
Music has been such an important part of my life. I can’t sing, and I can’t play an instrument, and I pretty much have zero rhythm, but music has played alongside me since the day I was born. My parents raised me in a house full of music. I loved holding the albums in my…
Read MoreWinchester Family Session: Let Your Children Play
Clearly it’s been too long since I’ve subjected you to photos of my nephew. It was time. He was about 8 months old when these were taken and he was already a speedy crawler. And a GREAT smiler. I feel I have to share this cuteness with the world. Plus, it’s nice to have a…
Read MoreKrista Baroni at the Crompton Collective: Sometimes You Must Misbehave
In the time that I’ve known Krista, she’s been a photographer, a waitress, and a jewelry store worker. She’s lived on her own, at her parents’, and with her boyfriend. She’s been a starving artist. Sometimes, just an artist. She’s been a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll. A morning person.…
Read MoreWinchester Family Session: Oh, Moon of Alabama
Adventures in Drewland! Although we haven’t had a formal photo shoot lately, I try to bring my camera to everyday gatherings so I can capture my family head over heels in love with this little baby. And can you blame us?! He is just so adorable. Even my father (who my sister thinks should be…
