Last year (and this year!) I had the honor of taking the photos for the ACLU of MA’s annual report. The report is here in PDF form if you want to read about what the ACLU of MA was up to last year, and I’ve posted some high res photos from it below.
The 2018 annual report was the first gig I did after having back surgery last year, and it was an great way to get back in the saddle after taking such a long, involuntary break. I drove nearly 300 miles, met a bunch of amazing people, and took so, so many photos. I’m glad I got to start working again by documenting plaintiffs, volunteers, activists, and lawmakers who are fighting for a better world.

Well, here we are again. This week I cooked some barely edible food, ordered $120 of model-making supplies online, felt painfully tired and unmotivated, had some delightful and affirming phone/video calls with friends, and spent much more time than I care to admit arranging mirrors in my room to bounce sunlight around. I feel so…
Another event I photographed during 2017 first-year orientation: the Tufts Hillel Bagel Brunch. In addition to bagels, the event featured a staggering number of acapella groups, far more than pictured here. O-week at Tufts seems to be saturated in acapella, no matter your interest or where you go.
I didn’t get paid to take these; my parents just had some dead trees that needed to be taken care of. That said, if any tree services are looking for photos for their website, CALL ME. I would love to shoot more pictures like this. Mayer Tree Service was here for two days and I…
I was the official behind the scenes photographer for the production of the Tufts Experimental College Director Howard Woolf’s film ‘Dust’ this summer. Here are some stills from day four. You can follow the film’s official Facebook page here. Stay tuned for more behind-the-scenes posts — I took a lot of photos! Here are the behind-the-scenes photos…
Last weekend I took some photos of a Haitians United cultural event for the Somerville Journal! See the photos on WickedLocal, or scroll down to view them here.
Over winter break, I spent a week at WBUR interviewing and shadowing different people at the station. Here are some photos behind the scenes at On Point with Ray Suarez.
