New England Aquarium Photoshoot Pt.I

September 13, 2010

A couple weeks ago I visited Boston for a few days and spent some time in the Aquarium.


This time I was primarily working with the seal trainers and focusing on the lesser known animals in the Aquarium.

Myrtle, the green sea turtle, swimming in the Giant Ocean Tank. She is at least 70 years old and weights over 500lbs.

The Sand Tiger Shark, never in a hurry.


A Cow Nose Ray swimming by.

This is a very strange looking fish. Apparently poisionous.

Small shark.

An amphibious fish living with the green Anaconda.

It is so slimey…

A shrimp in the Pacific Reef tank.

This was a really neat jellyfish, it is about the size of your finger nail but has little lights moving in its bloodstream.

Norther Fur Seals in the new Marine Mammal Center.

Seal scratching himself.

A child picked from the audience to interact with the seals.

More to come next week!

Stumbled upon this shot while heading to the washroom, love the vibrant colors with the shapes created by the glasses.


The hardest part was how to avoid glare and reflections from the glasses.

Baby Ben and Lilian

May 21, 2010

One early morning, Horace and I packed up the lights, backdrops and did a photoshoot with Wendy & Jeff’s 10 month old twins – Ben and Lilian.


They had just finished breakfast and were in a good mood. Ben was crawling everywhere and refusing to sit.

Lilian was her usual self, totally focused on the toys around her.

Wendy and Jeff reading to them.

Ben had to excuse himself for some urgent business.



“I am a rockstar!”

Getting them to sit still was no easy task!

Ryan & Cindy’s Wedding

May 13, 2010

Congrats to the newly weds! This was the first wedding that I was covering and I asked Horace to help. It was a lot of learning throughout the day and any feedback and comments would be welcomed.


Getting ready at Cindy’s house.
