Moonrise Yoga
I try to cram a lot into my summer season. From the sailing and regattas, to unexpected surf sessions, to lifestyle shoots, not to mention getting out for any landscapes while the trees aren't bare, there's a lot to be done in a short period of time.
Luckily, Alyssa and I got in two yoga shoots while it was beautiful and warm out. No sooner had we wrapped our morning beach shoot in July, then it was already time for a moonrise shoot in late August.
We met up in Narragansett where tide pools provided a wonderful mirror to create interesting reflecting shapes and poses. As the sun set, everything became golden and warm. The moon continued to rise as the skies turned pink and purple. I played with a prism for the first time, continuing our play with reflections into a different methodology.
Collaborations can go so smoothly when everything comes together just right. I would say this shoot was one of those such collaborations!

Warm Getaways
I had been eagerly awaiting this winter season. Here in New England, the winter months can be rather frigid, but for those of us who don’t mind the exhaustive work of climbing into 6 mil wetsuits or ice-cream-headache cold waters, it’s the eagerly anticipated winter months that bring the biggest swells. We had snow before the New Year and water temps quickly started approaching 40°F. But in typical fashion, as soon as the long awaited winter months arrived, I was craving a break from the cold gray in favor of a warm water reprieve.
Board Portraits // Experiments
I've been wanting to shoot more portraits lately, but in combination with the surf community that I've been so involved with the past year. My good friend, Kevin Tanner, behind Soudnings Surf Co creates some gorgeous handcrafted boards. He does all his own shaping, resin work, and glassing, and I wanted to photograph some beautiful boards to highlight his craftsmanship as well as portraits of my friends who ride them. I decided to do board portraits.
Snowy Surf Sessions
A lot of us enjoy the warm weather, but a select few of us still enjoy (or perhaps tolerate) the cold weather. And nothing quite says winter like a fresh snowfall! On the rare occasion Rhode Island experiences more than one inch of snow while there's swell in the water, you can find a select few of dedicated riders on the shore eager to have a snow session.
