portfolio rejects

Young girl with her grandmother in Boston's North End

I’m about to launch a new website with new and updated portfolios. Oh man, the process of selecting images to represent myself is quite challenging. I have to resist simply choosing the images that I love because portfolio images should also be technically sound and relate-able without context so that people consider hiring me for work.

I have finalized my selections and the new site will be up shortly. I thought I’d give a little tribute to the images that missed the cut...

photo slideshow/video for Kripalu Center

Watch the photo slideshow/video piece that I made for Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health. I took the majority of the photos and edited the photos and audio together.

an assortment of the ordinary

Here’s a selection of pictures from the last week. Starting with a day in Hudson with Laura D (she’s awesome, check out her blog). This is my tea in a mug made by Laura’s boyfriend.

LD herself.

That afternoon we had an amazing crepe around the corner from her house.

The next day I walked through town to meet my friend Erin and noticed this display on Main Street.

Then I ran into another friend named Laura and her newly adopted dog Isabella.

Erin and I had brunch and then coffee, yum.

Erin soaking up the sun.

Erin took this one of me thinking deep thoughts with cappuccino in-hand as I do every Sunday morning.

Today Sara and I walked the loop around Benedict Pond in Beartown State Forest.

She’s nearly camouflaged!

We think these are mushrooms...

Boston apartment memories

Today I was scanning more images for the forthcoming website for the film about the Little Brothers of Saint Francis. In the mix, I found photos from my last summer living in Boston. I had these awesome roommates and cats in a sweet apartment in JP...

This is Matty.

and Matty and me.

Mingus, quite content where he is.
