Maybe it’s because in the Autumn, I’m never (ever) home, but to me, this time of year just calls for being a homebody. The chill in the air (not today though!), the delicious comfort foods we all love, the fact that it’s slipper weather again — I just love being home in the Fall. So...

As a proud New Englander, I simply couldn’t not have a tree theme in the Fall. Not many of the trees have changed colors around here, but it’s been lovely paying tribute to them in their gorgeous green state. Some of the images in this gallery are STUNNING. I’m really proud of the way people...
Well, it finally happened. I didn’t get my own submission done in time for the gallery being put up. Still, I can’t hold off just because I didn’t get it done in time. I’ll add mine ASAP – I’ve got a great plan for it and I can’t wait to go photograph the location I...
Not surprisingly, this week has a low turnout. Even in the age of selfies, it’s always the biggest challenge to turn the camera on ourselves, isn’t it? I had grand plans for this week but, like a true mum in the middle of September, I just didn’t have the time! I’m not unhappy with my...
Of course I’m a day late. Because as the weekly challenge states, it’s September. And we have jumped back into routine and school and everything and it’s lovely and wonderful and so incredible but I’m already exhausted from all the change this week! How about you? I simultaneously thought I had another day until it...
I can’t have a photo challenge in the year 2018 and not have you take at least one image of plated food! hahaha. Everyone loves taking pictures of what they’re eating so I thought this was too fun. I loved seeing what everyone posted — from plates to adorable faces covered in lunch to seagulls....
So this week’s challenge is actually a bit of an Easter Egg for those that know me. I wasn’t sure what the challenge word would be and then I saw that it was week 33. The number 33 has become a prominent number in my life because my brother died when he was 33. So...
This week’s theme is another color theme – which is very popular with players. I love the varied images that are included in the gallery. Take a look and enjoy! I’m glad to see so many people coming back too! #irisheyesblue You can click on any image to see additional descriptions if you’d like. If...
What do you think of when you think of the word ‘space?’ Is it the new Space Force we’re putting together? (hah). Is it personal space? Infinity and beyond? A parking space? Open space? I was hopeful this week’s challenge would give us an array of interpretation and, while it’s a small number of submissions...
Yes, I was completely on vacation last week and KNEW I had a house on the beach to look forward to so I totally picked this week’s challenge with my vacation in mind. It’s the first week I ever picked a challenge knowing what I personally had ahead of me. It was still tough; I...
It’s another quiet week around here, since we’re all so busy with summertime adventures. But the submissions for this week have been so joyous and if they bring a smile to your heart, then the task has been completed! Take a look! #irisheyesjoy You can click on any image to see additional descriptions if you’d...
Of course I would pick the rainiest week to challenge you to take Sun images. Hahahah. Such is life! It was a great way to really make it a challenge. The summer participant group is smaller than the rest of the year but it’s still really really awesome. I’m so excited every week to see...
This week marked our first shape challenge. This was a pretty fun one because it causes you to really keep your eyes open for something that’s everywhere but you may have not noticed unless you had your mind focusing on it. I myself took a walk around Downtown Hingham (where my studio is), and captured...
I think we’re having a slower few weeks because so many people are on vacation and adjusting to new summer schedules. We’ve still got a great showing for these summertime challenges, even if it’s less than usual! I was really impressed with this week’s submissions. I appreciated the out-of-the-box thoughts on this. I wondered if...
If I had known my announcing ‘summer’ as this week’s challenge would bring about a heatwave that’s been THIS INTENSE, I may have chosen a different challenge word! My oh my! I hope you’ve all been able to keep relatively cool this week. Our air conditioning broke – we fixed it – and then it...
Another week gone in the blink of an eye! Many of us ended school years this week. My son’s ended last week, and my daughter’s ended today! I can hardly believe it. The power of time moving too fast. It seemed like yesterday (like, it ACTUALLY seems like YESTERDAY) that I challenged you to the...
With Father’s Day in the middle of our challenge week, “Father” seemed like an easy challenge word. We had less participants than usual this week so I guess it was harder than I thought! It’s really interesting to me to see what people find easy and what people find too hard. I am always...
It’s Pride Month and, this weekend was full of joyous celebration in cities and towns all over our country. It was the perfect week for the challenge word to be “Pride.” And even if it wasn’t, we’ve all got something to be proud of so it’s not too difficult to come up with something. I...
So this one was challenging, eh? Not only were we all talking about how this one appeared to be a struggle, but only six of us actually submitted! That’s the lowest week we’ve had yet! I’ll have to come up with something exciting for the next one to get you all back in the swing...
Can you believe we just completed Week 20?! This challenge has been so fun and I am so looking forward to the next twenty weeks! This week I thought I’d tap into the crafting base of the community and see what works of art people are working on. From delicious food to coloring to crochet...
This week’s theme was suggested by a member of the challenge community and it was the perfect time for such a great suggestion; spring has certainly sprung! Everyone did a really lovely job with this one. This gallery is so refreshing and looking at it you can almost feel the fresh spring air surrounding you. ...
Typically when I post these galleries, I am either doing it from the waiting area of my kids’ swim classes, or, if it’s my husband’s turn to take them to swim, I do it from home. Last week, it was my husband’s turn to take them and it was a gorgeous day so I was...
April brought a LOT of showers and therefore it was pouring when it was time to choose a theme for last week. As I drearily gazed through the droplets on my window for the umpteenth day in a row, the idea came to me. I figured with all that rain it wasn’t a difficult challenge...
Got a camera for Christmas and want to learn how to use it? Have you had a camera since ten birthdays ago and you STILL don't know how to use it? Are you just loving photography and want to learn more to better your skills? Well I've got the classes you're looking for.
I offer Beginner and Intermediate classes for grown ups and kiddos alike. Classes are for ages 10 and up. I separate the beginner classes into age groups (10-14, 15-18, 18+) so people can feel the most comfortable with their peers. I also offer private classes for the introverts out there!
Classes are usually in the winter/spring. In addition to scheduled classes, if you want a private class, or, have a group of friends that want to take a class together, we can plan that out. Just call or email me to let me know what you're looking for and I will make it happen! (It IS possible to have classes scheduled in the Summer or Fall but it's just trickier to schedule. So get in touch if you have a desire!)
All classes take place here at the studio in Downtown Hingham MA. At times we do take a walk around the area to stretch our photography skills but we don't venture too far.
Classes are limited to 7 students per class to keep things easy and afford everyone a chance to ask plenty of questions.
Subjects covered:
-COMPOSITION
-manual settings (ISO, Aperture, Shutter Speed)
-lighting
2019 classes:
adult beginner - march 16th from 10am-3pm
