I’ll admit it – I love snow. Enjoying four glorious seasons is a large part of what brought me to New Hampshire. I find it relaxing and peaceful to watch it snow. I find it exhilarating to snowshoe through the forests, across frozen lakes, and among the mountains(especially on clear,…
Orchards aren’t just for picking apples. They also happen to make beautiful settings for portraits. Nicholle thought Apple Hill Farm on the north edge of Concord would make an ideal choice for her senior portrait session because of its scenery. The weather turned out perfect for a mid-September Saturday (it’s always…
Besides maple syrup (one reason I moved to New Hampshire), I like jams, jellies, and preserves (marmalades, not so much). I also like cooking and baking, particularly bread and biscuits – which also like jams, jellies, and preserves. A few years ago, I gathered some wild grapes and made jam…
Anna is a natural. Big, sunny smile; Mona Lisa smile; touch of seriousness, she wore them all well and switched easily between them. I often just made minor adjustments to poses she went into naturally. She’s the type of person photographers enjoy shooting. Of course, a glorious summer evening dockside on Lake…
Ahhh, summer in New Hampshire! Maureen, her two children, and their families planned a trip from their homes in Georgia to visit Maureen’s sister who lives on Lake Winnisquam. Maureen wanted to capture this moment in everyone’s lives – especially with pre-teens and two-year-old twins – a perfect opportunity for a portrait session….
Photographers need to party, too. But that only means fewer photos, not no photos at all. Since I pretty much take my camera just about everywhere, it’s only natural that I would bring it along to a Fourth of July party at a friend’s house on Lake Winnisquam. I relaxed…
One of the main reasons I moved to New Hampshire was being in the woods in Autumn. Simply wonderful. Naturally, I love doing portrait sessions among the colorful trees. The Weeks family also wanted to take advantage of nature’s beauty for their portraits this year, so we met at Profile…
People love to photograph New Hampshire’s covered bridges and, of course, take advantage of them for portrait settings as well. For the Robert family, they were a natural fit since Chris is a bridge engineer. On yet another gorgeously sunny Sunday, we met at Rowell’s Bridge in Hopkinton. Creating some…
Photography gift certificates make wonderful presents. (Hint, hint – Christmas is peeking around the corner.) Last year, Kim’s niece bought her a gift certificate for a family portrait session because it had been a while since the last time they had some done. Also, one of their sons had just…
It seems I’m starting a series. Not long ago, I did a James Bond style shoot in downtown Concord at night. Today, I did a Huck Finn style shoot in Tilton, New Hampshire. I’m open to suggestions on what book or movie to use as inspiration for my next shoot….
