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…
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…
Kevin called me with a plan. He and his girlfriend, Samantha, had been wanting to have some portraits taken. But he thought he would add a twist — half-way through the portrait session he would drop down on one knee and propose! That sounded like a fun shoot to me, so…

Sometimes you just need to make a bit more effort to get the shots you want. During a senior portrait session with Austin, we both realized some of the shots we wanted meant a bit of climbing. I met Austin at the Sewall’s Falls recreation on the north side of…
Our second day in Zermatt dawned just as marvelous as the first. We decided to explore and hike the mountains on the other side of Zermatt from the Matterhorn. That area gives the classic look of the mountain that everyone knows. We first took the Gornergratbahn, a cog railway and the…
Going into Zermatt, Switzerland reminded me of visiting a Disney resort. No cars are allowed (except for some electric vehicles), so you have to take a train to the town. Although people do live there, the majority of the people you see are tourists and everyone in the shops and…
