Hingham Waterfront

I finally had a chance to go to the beloved Hingham that Sara Minkara always talks about. Sara is the amazing founder of Empowerment Through Integration, the wonderful NGO I'm a part of. Let me say that Hingham did not disappoint. We went to the waterfront at the sunset and it was beautiful!

Birthday and the Beach

Its been quite the hiatus for me. I hadn't realized how long it has been since I've made a post. Hopefully with the weather starting to get nicer, I'll be able to go out and shoot more. Our beloved brother Eric had a birthday a couple weeks ago and to celebrate we went down to the shore. Yes, in April, we decided to go to the beach and I must say it was amazing!

Thanksgiving with the Family

“I am grateful for what I am and have. My thanksgiving is perpetual…O how I laugh when I think of my vague indefinite riches. No run on my bank can drain it, for my wealth is not possession but enjoyment.”

— Henry David Thoreau

This Thanksgiving I was lucky enough to spend it with my family. Sitting around waiting for dinner we decided out of the blue to dress up and take family pictures on a perfect sunny day. We walked out to the field next to the entrance of our complex and without caring about the onlookers we had fun. Maybe we were a little ridiculous, but it was a blast and I can't wait until we do it again. This is a perfect reminder why I got into photography in the first place. To make and capture memories. What a great Thanksgiving.

Happy Halloween

Happy early Halloween! I thought I'd take this time I have from Hurricane Sandy to put up a quick post. For those who can't figure out what Hannah and I are supposed to be, she's a Hawaiian girl and I am a boxer. Together we're Hawaiian Punch! Hope everyone stays safe from the storm!
