Super Rad Wedding Photography in Mexico and Around the World!
portraitsWhen I was in Massachusetts I was lucky enough to be asked by an old friend to document her third pregnancy and her two lovelies. We went to the Poor Farm in Westport, MA which will always have a soft spot in my heart since the Back Eddy days when we used to party it up there. It’s changed a lot in the fifteen some odd years since then and is now a State park and historically designated building. This was an all film session shot on Kodak Porta 800 and Kodak Tri-X.
                       Jaime and Eric held their wedding at an all-inclusive to accommodate their friends and family and make it as easy as possible for them to not have to do anything at all while down here to celebrate their wedding. Since that’s not really their style they decided to spend a week after the wedding in San Pancho, also known as my hood. We got to hang out and have some drinks together which I loved because really my clients are more and more getting to be my close friends. We also spent one afternoon shooting around town together from the ruins to the beach. Jaime had this idea that she wanted to do a Frida themed shoot for part of it and she totally played the part while Eric had to forcibly not smile because as everyone knows Diego Rivera was always super serious in photographs. At least that’s what Jaime and I told him. Here are some of my faves.
                          no comments When I was in Westport I had a chance to hang out with an old friend and her super cool kids. Michelle and I worked together back in the day at The Back Eddy. If you ever find yourself in Westport, MA definitely go to the Eddy for a margarita on the deck. Amazing sunsets on the river and delicious food. Since then she’s had two gorgeous kids who are way too old now. I seriously can’t believe how time flies. Besides being an awesome mother Michelle also knits up a storm. I took some photos of some of her work while we waited for Julia and Ethan to get back from school. To see more of her work check out her Etsy page here: Knit Happens. The other half of Knit Happens is our friend Kelly who will be on the blog shortly with her two adorable little ones as well. This is almost all Kodak Portra 400 with a few digital files thrown in as well.
    Ethan wanted to show me some of his toys. These are Legos. When did they become so crazy technical? What happened to all the little people that you stick on one flat piece of green and build multicolored brick buildings? I told him I didn’t believe him. He assured me I was wrong and these most definitely are in fact Legos.

I have been waiting for them to invite me for a long time and now that time has finally come I am a little nervous to say the least. I know I will be in good hands with my girls Selina, Linda, Perla, and Lupita, but I have no idea what to expect. I’m brining three bags of film, my Contax 645, and as a backup my Nikon. Just in case something happens with the Contax I don’t want to be without a camera for the ceremonies. Here are some black and white portraits on film I did a few weeks ago. Some are from the circus rehearsals and some from around town. All processing by Richard Photo Lab in California.
