This month my photography was featured throughout New England Home Magazine. My work with Mandarina Studio appeared in the Metropolitan Life section of the May/June issue. It was a fun experience taking photos for interior designer Amanda Reid in this Cambridge home. I have had the pleasure of working with her for multiple projects over the years. This home was a vibrant and elegant living space with a lot of great color and natural light. Pick up the latest issue and read more about the project or just check out the tear sheets below.
More of my work was featured in the Bold and Beautiful section too! How cool is that? The first photo(top right) was a bedroom shot for Kristine Mullaney Design in Back Bay. Although this was taken awhile ago, it’s great to see recognition happening so far after the fact. That’s a testament to work of Kristine. Whether taking pictures for a client or for my own projects, seeing work I’ve nearly forgotton about gaining recognition only reinforces my desire to create. Photographs don’t only make a bookmark in time, but are also comparable to planting seeds.
The next picture in this section(top right) was a bedroom photographed for Annsley Interiors. Have a look through to read more about this Back Bay home. Again, another project that I shot over a year ago, but is just gaining readership now.
The last spot where my work appeared(bottom right 6 pictures) were portraits for the Boston Society of Architects for their Gala last January.

It’s very exciting working with a company from the ground up. Jason Stevens is the founder and owner of TribalTLC, (Tribal) Knowledge, (T)each, (L)earn and (C)ollaborate. It’s a peer learning group geared towards acquiring survival skills for business, technology and design. Some topics are web design, SEO and running your business.
He brought me in to take his portrait. The images will appear on the forthcoming website and all social media platforms. Since TribalTLC is just gaining traction, the images we created were crucial for branding and initial impressions. I wanted to convey Jason exactly how he is. Fun, affable, a person you want to be around.

I had the pleasure to work with some inspiring people in the latest issue of Colloquy magazine. Scott Lee has done fascinating things since his 2003 graduation, mostly focusing on South African and Indian community health, although he does place interest in US healthcare. His work centers around engaging communities to operate more safely and efficiently, with an underlying emphasis on a sustainable, healthier lifestyle.

When I was in California, I made the trek up to Santa Barbara. I shot portraits of Dan and Arielle, a musical duo based in LA. You can see pictures from that shoot in my last post. I also documented what goes into making such delicious wine at Sandoval Vineyard. I now have a new found respect for what the entire process takes, not that I thought it was easy. Michael, the owner of Sandoval Vineyards and the nicest man I’ve ever met, showed us nearly everything that goes into harvesting. In the end, I discovered that wine-making is a truly unique expression of art through preparation and taste. It is also a temperamental trade that reconnects you with the earth. There are literally thousands of variables and decisions that go into making a bottle of wine. It can be overwhelming.
Why have pretty ladies crush the wine you might ask? It’s not just because it’s easy on the eyes. Women have a softer stomp and less calluses than men. Because of that, they don’t completely crush the seeds. Crushed seeds release bitterness, so that’s why it’s actually better(or not) to have a human do the task instead of a machine. Take a look at some photos I shot for the ranch.
