Yoga in the Woods
Just days before my trip to Block Island, I managed to get a second yoga shoot in before the cold weather. I had ambitious plans at the beginning of the summer season that quickly slipped away as the days melted from one week to the next. But with a little determination I found time to work with a good family friend in the back woods of Wickford for another fun yoga shoot!
These photos are from an area of town where I spent a considerable amount of time when I was younger, either walking to school or just playing. It had been quite a while since I was on these forest paths, and it was refreshing to visit these familiar spots in a new capacity.
A special thanks to Deedee, my yogi of the day, for being so cooperative and graceful while we bumbled through the woods shooting yoga :)

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.
