MORE LITTLE ONES!

You would never have guessed that this was one of the hottest days of the summer! These two young ladies kept their cool throughout the session. As they get older, there will be days when a pose like this will be impossible to capture, but those stages don't last long. Sisters have a special bond.

This session was held in beautiful Ogunquit, Maine.

THOSE CURLS! THOSE EYES!

They make for an irresistible combination:



I can't wait to show the rest of the images from this family session!

TWO COUSINS FROM NEW YORK

....on an island in Maine at sunset. A nice chance to get away and enjoy the ocean (they're from upstate NY) and a change of pace.






Time to go back to school, though. One a senior, one a freshman. Good luck girls - have a great school year!

WORLDWIDE PHOTO WALK

Today I had fun participating in the second annual Worldwide Photo Walk, sponsored by Scott Kelby, and held in Lewiston, Maine. This is the second year that towns and cities all over the world have designated a day for photographers to roam around their towns, taking pictures and documenting anything that catches their eye. This year over 900 cities from all over the world participated. Our group made its quota of 50 photographers, and we all set out - in the rain! - to photograph Lewiston. One of the most-photographed parts of the city was the old Cowan Mill, built in 1850. Last Wednesday it was the victim of arson.
Needless to say, this poor skeleton of a building, which had been on the National Register, was one of the most-photographed buildings on our walk.
On July 31, from 5 - 7, all the participants on the walk will be exhibiting their work at the L/A Arts Gallery 5.

BEST EVER YOU!

It's out! The premiere edition of Best Ever You, the Magazine. The BestEverYou.com website was the brainchild of Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and Debbie Hastings, and they've now expanded to a free publication. The magazine and website both cater to women - "by real women, for real women" - with articles on local celebrities and self-help features.

I am flattered that I was chosen to photograph Sharon Rose, co-anchor of the Channel 6 news, for the cover and feature. Thank you, Sharon, for being such a delightful and fun subject!
I wish Elizabeth and Debbie the best of luck in their new venture -
