I got the chance to work with Beate recently doing some company head shots. Everyone was so welcoming in her work place and it was a pleasure getting the opportunity to make these images. We were striving for professional, welcoming and a little creative. Here’s a sneak peek. ♥
One of my clients today was originally from CT and now lives in FL. We spoke for a few minutes about travel and where our favorite places have been. I’ve lived and traveled all over the country and can find something good to say about every stop along my journey. I will say the two Portland’s – OR and ME both caught my attention before I opened the studio here in CT – and I think I will live on the coast of Maine one day. Our chat got me reflecting on all the traveling I did while teaching myself photography – and specifically about the Angel Oak. It lives on Johns Island in South Carolina and is one of the largest and oldest living things on the east coast. One image that I made during my travels (see it here has been a popular seller for me. I searched through my archives and reworked another photo from that journey. The person was left in the image to give you a small idea of the size of this beautiful tree. What’s one of your favorite places?
Ellen Mangiafico will be teaching a beginner Embody Yoga class in our studio. It will run for six Saturday’s in September and October. The first class is September 7th from 9:30-10:30 AM and is being offered at an introductory rate of $5.00.

I’ve been meaning to share that I’ve been accepted as a volunteer photographer with the Magic Hour Foundation.
The Magic Hour Foundation works to match professional photographers with cancer patients and survivors in order to provide a complimentary portrait session. It’s an opportunity for everyone to have some fun and create beautiful memories. If you know someone who may be wishing for something like this please share the site with them so they can apply for a session of their own. ♥
If I had my way, the money, the resources, etc most of my photography would be made using old processes. It’s not that I’ve done then so much as I admire the craft. The risk. The patience. The time invested. The skill that has to be developed. This is my first attempt at giving a nod to tin type, digitally. The first image is one I took last week, with something like this in mind. A Lensbaby Composer was used to give the natural hazy/blurry feel. I quite like it as is and enjoy the mood that’s created with all the texture layers. Which one speaks to you the most?
