Typical New England. Rainy and raw one week, then sunny and sweltering the next. It’s a good thing Brody is so darn cute — I felt like I was standing on the surface of the sun during his shoot, but he stayed totally cool and happy and awesome. Lindy and Billy are so fun and […]

There’s an Annie Leibovitz quote that I use on my website: “The thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people”; nowhere is this more genuine than with the families who allow me to document the first year of their babies’ lives. I meet […]

(photographers note: I strayed from my normal workflow and processed these […]

Jenna and I traded about three million voicemails before we connected to talk about doing a newborn session for her upcoming baby boy. With every missed call I was afraid the kid would be born, eating, and walking before we were finally able to pin down a day. At last we talked, and a few […]

prana |ˈpränə| noun: Hinduism breath, considered as a life-giving force. ORIGIN: Sanskrit. There’s a technique that my Yin teacher uses to help us wage gentle battle against the aches and pains that arise while holding postures for a particularly long time. She urges us to use ujjayi breathing to “wash the area with fresh prana” […]
