Was a drizzly, gray afternoon

today, which I think was actually good for the engagement session I had in Boston this afternoon. There were no harsh shadows, just nice soft and even lighting. We

went to the beautiful courtyard of the Boston Public Library and

Trinity Church, I've always wanted to shoot in there and the

weather gave a perfect excuse. Got a bit of Holiday feel to the pictures too...

Is Evan a great sport or what? Every year we do something for our Xmas card and this is the 2009 one. Fun to do, put the paper on the floor, got the stars, bead reins, and confetti snowflakes at the Dollar Store. Julie drew the roof and chimney and Oila! I wonder if I'm in alot of trouble when he becomes a teenager? Won't get away with this I'm sure.....

Shot portraits of some of the artists at Blue Skies Studios yesterday. We're all getting ready for our Big Open House this Sunday from 12:00 to 4:00. There'll be art, music by the Parish Jazz band, food and wine. Hope you can amke it!

Got to see Grace Kelly at Mechanics Hall today, really something else. 17 years old and dynamite on the sax. Has great stage presence too. Got my mom an autographed CD for Xmas (and myself one too...) If you get the chance, really should see her live.

I love music and photographing performances. Today I went to Worcester for WICN'(90.5) "Brown Bag Concert Series". Miss Tess and The Bon Ton Parade were there and they did a great mix of retro-sounding original jazz, swing and torch songs. Beautiful venue too. A really cool program during these times....Happy Thanksgiving!

It was a dark and misty night.....
last Saturday night at the Belcourt Castle in Newport RI.
As I was going up to the balcony to get an above shot of Ana and Antonio's wedding service, I came across these mannequins in a pile....The place had many dark corners and hidden doors coming out walls, candles were the only light for the Ceremony, the cake had vampires on the top.....

Back in good-ole New England last weekend for Amy and Kurt's wedding at the Zorvino Vineyard in NH. Who knew NH had a vineyard?Anyway, the space was cool, post and beam with a balconey above.

Outside was foggy and drizzling.....Kinda made for some cool "mysterious" looking wedding
