Weekend Trip to Maine | The Way Life Should Be

So Theresa saw an article in Sunset magazine, probably a year ago, about the Standard Baking Company in Portland, ME. Ever since she laid her eyes upon those blueberry scones she has been obsessed. And with a rare free weekend during the busy summer wedding season we set off to get those scones. Ending up in Ogunquit, getting some r&r, and some quality beach time. If you do make it to the Standard Baking Company we highly recommend the chocolate cork and of course anything with blueberries. Here's a few of my favorites shots just wandering around:





















Thanks for looking and happy Tuesday.

Boston Engagement Photographers | Engagement Shoot in Coolidge Corner

We had an awesome time with Peri and Aaron for their engagement photos around Coolidge Corner in Brookline. The light was perfect and it was another hot summer night (and Peri and Aaron weren't so bad themselves). We walked around for an hour or so and found some spots that really reflected them and how they enjoy the area. We are looking forward to photographing their wedding in October. Thanks guys - now take a look:





You know they feel comfortable when they start dancing in the streets - love it.


That's what I'm talking about...probably my favorite from the night.

Boston Wedding Photography | Belmont Country Club

Boston Wedding Photography | Belmont Country Club

We are noticing a constant theme of couples deciding to make this year unbelievably productive by not only getting married but also buying a home. I'm getting a little stressed just thinking about it. Despite the near impossible logistics this couple pulled off a truly elegant wedding at their church in Watertown and then to The Belmont Country Club for the reception. From the Jasmine couture dress, the Rolls Royce for the bride and groom, to the blueGuava flowers all the details were perfect. Now take a look:

































Venue: Belmont Country Club
Florist: John LaRoche for blueGuava
DJ: DJ Raffi
Dress: Jasmine Couture

Boston Engagement Photography | Boston Public Gardens

It's summer and it's a bit blistery but Caroline and Shamus were nice enough to brave the heat (and bring a little of their own ;) for their engagement shoot in and around the Boston Public Gardens. On a random side note, if you haven't done a guided tour of the Freedom Trail, it's pretty cool, the history behind the Public Gardens and the Boston Commons - I would tell you all that I learned from the tour but I'd probably get it all wrong. I definitely recommend it even for locals and if nothing else it's a good excuse to get out and walk around the city. But back to Caroline and Shamus - they quickly warmed up to the camera and let loose to allow us to get some great shots. We can't wait to photograph their wedding at the Kinney Bungalow on Sunset Farms down in Rhode Island. Only a month away!! Now take a look:













Love this one where they just start dancing.


Working it...






And what's better than some ice cream on those hot summer nights?


See you guys soon.

Fine Art Photography | Print of the Month

Print of the Month | July 2010

Well from now on, monthly or as often as I can remember to do it, we will be offering one of our Fine Art prints as the Print of the Month. Each print will be a pigment on paper print, approximately 14 inches on the long side, and then matted to 16x20 with a museum quality mat board. Each Print of the Month will only be offered at the discounted price for that specific month, one month only. Go to this link for more details:

Print of the Month

For July we have Calla I - 2009.

When Theresa and I were living in this great little house in Monterey, CA we had a stretch of the yard that was completely Calla Lillies. And due to the Monterey climate they would all bloom in the winter, late in the year until probably April. I loved it. A constant source of inspiration, they are so delicate looking, so graceful. So after wanting to photograph them for months I finally made the time and spent an afternoon trying out different compositions, lighting situations and arrangements. This is one of the favorites. It was made using only natural light, from a window in our garage and I probably had a little bit of a fill card on the left side so the light didn't fall off too quickly. I used a simple black background to emphasize the form of the flower. It was a digital capture, using a Nikon camera, ISO 200, 1/15 of a second with an old 55mm micro lens, and I don't remember the F-stop but I chose to use a shallow depth of field to further emphasize the softness of the white tones. Enjoy.
