new photo exhibition
Visit my exhibit—Conversations with Nature—in the beautiful Central Path Wellness Center in Waltham and get a free consultation and discounted acupuncture treatment!
Conversations With Nature observes people in the natural world. How we name these interactions—exploring, playing, viewing, seeking, uniting with—reveals our own personal relationship to nature. The photos are grouped together to reveal the place itself, an individual’s experience, and how many elements coalesce into a single natural moment.
a walk at Kripalu
I was at Kripalu on Tuesday shooting some portraits and video for their marketing department. Jess and I took the chance to talk a little walk together.
The Guggenheim…
… only allows you to take photos in the lobby.
yoga, meditation, and botanicals
While in the inspiring setting of the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, we decided to make some yoga and meditation photographs for my sister to use when presenting her study about how yoga practice effects pain perception.
more of Colorado on the way
In between this fall’s weddings and portraits I am still sorting through all of my photos from my trip to Colorado last month. Here’s a few random shots, much is more on the way.
This snake crossed my path in Mesa Verda…
The week’s hosts were newlyweds Paul and Sara.
Eugene Richards workshop: just a little change in the frame
I spent this weekend with renown documentary photographer Eugene Richards in an intimate group of photographers. Primarily we looked at and discussed photographic projects and worked through puzzles each of us are facing. I talked about my still-image image film (Ridiculous & Sublime: Life in an Inner-City Franciscan Monastery) and my current exploration of conflict and story structure. It was enlightening, challenging, and comforting to receive so much feedback from others who are in various stages of the creative process—and have the conversation lead by one of the best in the field.
We did do a little shooting: one “framing” exercise in which we photographed someone many times with varied framing but without changing our distance to subject. Here’s a few that I shot with my workshop partner and out & about in Woodstock, NY.
A new friend/fellow photographer posted a review of the workshop on his photography blog (www.terrymoorephotography.com). I agree whole heartedly with Terry’s evaluation of Gene’s humility, honesty, and openess to each person and way of working. Terry is beginning a very ambitious documentary project himself, about shifting coal and natural gas economies in Pennsylvania.
OK, so I moved for this shot but I couldn’t resist snapping a close-up of this big drooly mug!
durango farm day
While I was in Durango last month I spent a day weeding and snapping some photos on Cottonwood Creek Farm which Clementine is working for. So wonderful to be outside all day with everything growing and almost no bugs (thank you dry Colorado air!)!
Sprouts in the greenhouse.
Cindy, the farmer!
