Summer is winding down....

As summer winds down in New England, I’ve been reflecting on a season filled with both storytelling and professional photography. The golden light of August is one of my favorite times to shoot — perfect for portraits, professional headshots, and lifestyle sessions that capture authentic moments.

This summer, I worked with clients across Greater Boston and Waltham, creating professional headshots both in studio and on location. Whether updating a LinkedIn profile, refreshing a company website, or giving a creative portfolio a polished edge, I love helping people feel confident in front of the camera. A strong headshot is often the first impression, and it matters.

I also had the privilege of photographing environmental lifestyle work for Lawrence General Hospital, highlighting the people and spaces that bring healthcare to life. These types of projects remind me how powerful photography can be in telling real, human-centered stories.

In between, I continued my Endangered Lobstermen series along the Maine coast — work that keeps me grounded in community, tradition, and resilience.

As we move into fall, the warm September light is an ideal time to schedule your own session. Whether you need corporate headshots near Boston, a family portrait, or lifestyle imagery for your business, this season offers a beautiful backdrop.
