candid fashion photography

This week I completed my second “real” fashion assignment. My client is LookADay.com, a fashion website that identifies real people in daily life with stylish and unique looks.
They have establish websites for international cities such as Paris and LA, and are just getting started in Boston, so check them out and rate some outfits!





winter chickadees!

Saturday a friend and I visited the Audubon reserve in Ipswitch to hang out with the winter flock of chickadees. The same birds would come back again and again for seeds. It turns out that they hide them and can remember thousands of hiding spots!

Rachel lures the chickadees with a smile and patience!




pondering creation and humanity at the Museum of Natural History

Last week I visited the Harvard Museum of Natural History. I’m generally an art-museum goer and was astonished by what was in this collection. Whether or not you’re versed in science, seeing things from outer space and ages long ago gives our humanity a whole new context.
I’m going to add the museum to my list of “must-see” for all who visit me in Boston. Don’t miss this! Admission is only $10 and includes admission to the anthropological museum as well (I didn’t make it over there as I spent over 3 hours lost in natural history!).

This flower, along with 800 other botanical models, is made of glass! Simply unbelievable, and amazing to see both exotic and familiar specimens up close inside and out.



Meteoroids! Do you have any idea how far this traveled to end up here in Cambridge?! And what it went through as it entered Earth’s surface?







Sunday afternoon in twos.

I took a walk with friends this past Sunday in the arboretum behind my house. I was in a “shooting two” mode I guess. Two of bamboo, two of Alexia, two of skyline . . .





Peter’s Hill.










afternoon at the arboretum


Today, a perfect weather day, I wandered the Arnold Arboretum in Jamaica Plain.


The Boston skyline. I like it best like this—with trees between us.

New friends Mary and Dan. They were just chillin’ and chill enough to let me snap away behind them.



I thought I was going to get the cutest picture of this kid barreling down the hill toward me with his parents behind—and I was able to get an impromptu OK from them—but he changed his mind at the last second. Funny how 2-years-olds do that.
