Photo a day: ACMi standup comedy night
One of my fellow interns, Erica, planned and executed a standup comedy show in the studio at ACMi. Here are some pictures I took during the setup. Tragically, I didn’t get any good photos of Erica herself.
Photo a day: Davis Square
Here are some photos from Davis Square one sunny Sunday.
On location: Mega-X, Auburn NH
Around this time last month, I was working on production design for a short film my friend Ben Hosking was directing. He, the DP, the UPM, and I drove up to our location, which was a truck stop in New Hampshire. It was a gorgeous, cool night, absolutely unlike the night we actually shot. Keep…
Photo a Day: Pasta
Let’s be honest: ‘Photo a Day’ is frequently ‘At Least Two Photos a Day.’ I liked how cinematic the simple moment of pasta cooking on the stove could be. . .one concept I’m very fond of from my video production experience is the idea of corresponding establishing shots and close-ups, which is why I’ll sometimes…
Photo a Day: Casey
As of this writing, my boyfriend Casey is off in Los Angeles for Emerson College’s LA program. I tried to take extra pictures of him before he left, since he’ll be there for three months. We’ve been friends for ten years and dating for five, and this will be the longest we’ll have gone without…

Arlington Public News Cast

Photo a day: blood tests
I did production design for a short film my friend and colleague Ben Hosking wrote with actor Josh Grey. Part of that involved formulating some fake blood to stain some bandages. I came up with some pretty convincing stuff. The recipe, if you’re interested, is red food coloring with just a touch of blue, glycerin,…
Photo a Day: Ikea Heart Lamp
Some days you don’t get out. This was one of those days.
Travel: Summer Martha’s Vineyard Trip
Three photo-a-days in one: my trip to Martha’s Vineyard with Casey and Jason! We stayed in Casey’s grandparents’ lodge, had a very belated birthday dinner for Casey, saw a movie, went to the beach… I got eaten alive by mosquitoes but it was a nice break from routine otherwise.
