Kenley: On location and in the studio
A few weeks back when Kenley joined us for the Get Lit workshop I knew we had to plan a shoot, and soon. I think literally within minutes of meeting him both Matt and myself had a dozen ideas for cool images we could make. Fast forward to Saturday when I met Kenley at the [...]
25 photographers lighting stuff up
Ever since my good friend Paul opened LensProToGo’s new studio space in Concord last summer, we’ve been talking about planning a large scale photographer get together. Saturday things finally came together, and we hosted 25 photographers, 10 models, a rock band and 3 makeup artists for a full-day shootout.
Thought I had a small (extra emphasis [...]
Nadia & Joel: Engaged: Fort Point, Boston
Had a great time hanging out with Nadia and Joel yesterday near Fort Point and A Street. I have to thank new bud Matt Dunn for the location recommendation, and old bud Rich for sending Nadia and Joel my way. Their wedding is in August at the Aquarium, which is gonna kick some serious ass, [...]
Rich Pizzuti: Lowell Photographer
A few days ago my good friend Rich of Lowell’s Pizzuti Studios gave me a call and said he was planning on shaving. Not a big deal, most people shave frequently…well, with Rich it’s a bit different – his beard doesn’t mess around. So yesterday afternoon, before he says goodbye to the growth one day [...]
A quick look through the archives
While pulling images from my archive in preparation for next weekend’s Get Lit workshop, I thought it might be cool to share a few images that have yet to see the light of day. Just a short post today, heavy on images. Many of these are from shoots I’ve already blogged, but for whatever reason, [...]
Karly: LensProToGo: Concord
There’s just nothing more enjoyable for me than spending a day in the studio shooting and hanging out with friends. Sunday’s rain moved a scheduled shoot indoors, but we definitely made the most of it. Mike and Tony even shot some video, which I hope to be able to show you all shortly.
You might remember [...]
Mark: Kenmore Square, Boston
In keeping with this month’s theme (or so it may seem), I spent Saturday morning freezing in Kenmore Square, shooting some headshots for Mark’s new blog. If you’re looking for a young photographer whose work will provide some serious inspiration, you really have to check out Mark’s site and new blog. And I know I’ve [...]
Team Yu: Some fun in the dark…
This seems to be the week where I blog about shooting all my friends, which is awesome. Anytime another photographer asks you to shoot photos of them and their family, you can’t help but be flattered. Also, let me add that Kristina and Jess are serious pals. As in, if Jess were younger they’d have [...]
One light in a hallway in Lowell
I spent the afternoon today hanging out with Rich, Ash and Anne up in Lowell. Rich, Ash, Mark and I have some fun plans coming up with the Help Portrait project, so stay tuned for that, and it was great to see Anne’s new studio space and play with her Profoto setup. We took the [...]
New York: Staatsburg Portraits
Jess and I just got back from a weekend in Staatsburg, New York (where? Yeah, that was me last week – but it’s basically south of Albany, 90 min. or so from NYC), where we got to see some of my family and shoot some photos.
Despite the fact that it rained Saturday, getting a chance [...]
LA – Family Portraits
Well now that I’m back to snowy Massachusetts (yeah, snow. October, I don’t get it either), I wanted to share the last of my LA photos. As I sort of touched on last week, the reason for the trip was to see some family, and well, I can’t just hang out with people, I clearly [...]
Los Angeles – Street Portraits in Santa Monica & Venice
So I’m LA for the week, visiting family that I haven’t seen in, oh, 23 years (which means what I “remember” is from photos, not actual memories), because my cousin Jenny was kind enough to fly me out here for a few days.
I took the opportunity today to take advantage of my body still being [...]
Scott & Cecelia: Wedding Teaser
I just got back from a great wedding with Scott and Cecelia and wanted to share two quick portraits from today. While I love everything about shooting weddings, it’s when I get a chance to spend a few minutes with the bride and groom for some more formal portraits that I get the most excited. [...]
Hollie and Lance: Charlestown Navy Yard
Once in a while, like last year’s Artist series, everything just comes together on a shoot. For reasons both tangible and beyond me, there are those days when everything clicking and then I get back to the computer and my first thought is, “But I like them ALL.” Yesterday was one of those days.
Meet [...]
Rich & Katie: Portraits
A few weeks back I was cruisin’ around Facebook (I know, I know, I need to find better ways to spend my time), when I hit up my friend Rich’s page and noticed a distinct lack of photos of him and his girlfriend Katie. Well they just moved into a new place in Brookline, so [...]
Maria: Senior Portraits
I know, I know, it’s been farrrrr too long since I’ve blogged, but I’m back in town now and shooting like crazy these next few weeks, so the updates (should be) frequent.
Yesterday I had the opportunity to head down to Lake Massapoag (gotta love shoots less than a mile from your house) to shoot [...]
Carolyn & Mike: Engaged
A few weeks back I shot Carolyn, Mike and Dancia’s family session, so a few days after that when Carolyn e-mailed asking if I’d do their engagement photos as well, of course I said yes.
Now this first photo is clearly not Carolyn, or Mike, but Danica. On the way back from our shoot we stopped [...]
Carolyn, Mike & Danica
Sunday morning I headed over for a rain delayed (seems like everything is rain delayed around here lately) photo shoot with Carolyn, Mike and Danica (that’s her gliding across the table).
They have a HUGE yard so we started shooting outside, praying the rain would hold off (it did).
They even have a way cool [...]
Elena & Carolyn: Photographers
Just got done spending the afternoon with Elena and Carolyn down in Kingston. We did a little shooting, a little Photoshopping and well, here are a few photos.
Carolyn:
Elena:
This is Elena & Carolyn – WE LOVE DOUG!!!!!
(Thanks guys, now back to your reguarly scheduled programming).

David & Jo: Photographers
A few months ago, while hanging out at castle MKD, I met David & Jo. David and Jo just recently moved here from the left coast, and when David e-mailed me about shooting them a few weeks back, I jumped at the chance.
OK, enough babble, onto the images.
We started out at Cochituate State Park [...]
Dreena: Studio
Last time I shot with Dreena we did the outdoor athlete thing, so this time we hit up the studio, courtesy of Paul over at LensProToGo. Paul’s a good friend who just opened up a studio rental space in Concord, and if you are in the area, you absolutely have to stop by. They’re rocking [...]
The Fletch-man
I had the chance yesterday to catch up with my cousin Jessica who was in town for a few days. They live in LA so we don’t get to see them too often, and this was my first chance to meet her 9-month old Fletcher. They were kinda running all over the place catching up [...]
Self Portrait
I know, I know, I’ve been slacking on ye ole’ blog, but it’s been gray out and I haven’t shot that much. The above photo is a byproduct of my hotel boredom here in Norwich.
Hopefully next week I’ll have some landscapes to show off, as we’re heading back to Erie (and Presque Isle State Park) for [...]
Jess: One frame
Had a quick idea pop into my head tonight, so I corralled Jess for a brief shoot. We shot this with available light in the hotel room (and black and white was a must as nasty green lamp-light dominated, and I left my flashes at home).
This was a fairly simple shoot, especially as far as [...]
