A few short notes about who I am, what I do, where I am, and where I’m going. These pages will be updated frequently, and while they won’t be about me, they will describe all the above.
I am the mother of 3 great kids: Oliver is a graphic designer in the Auburn MA area; Morgan is a 2nd LT in the USArmy, currently stationed in Iraq; and Andrea is a nanny to a wonderful 6 year old and living in NYC. I have 1 sister – Kirstin and I are 13 months apart and my brother in law gets to worrying when the Leaf sisters go on adventures. Sometimes he’s right to worry :). My 2 younger brothers are as different as night and day. Eric is a CPA on Long Island, Gus is a corrections officer in Boston and fisherman on Martha’s Vineyard, where are folks live and where my soul rests. The family is great, and my bedrock.
I am a wedding and portrait photographer, in the Quiet Corner of Northeast Connecticut. It didn’t start out like that, but that’s where it is. Like so many, photography was the magic science that I could relate to in college, and the passion never left. But it wasn’t until the kids were grown and able to fend for themselves that it really took hold, and I’ve run with it, like a striper on a wire. I work both on location at client’s homes, as well as my in-home studio which is in the process of being overhauled. Lots more to come about that!
The very best part of this work is meeting so many wonderful people. Plain and simple. From babies to brides, I love working with people to capture and present the memories of their lives. Kind of basic and down to earth, but that’s who and where I am.
Please stop by now and again to see what’s been going on in the ‘Quiet Corner’ and maybe we’ll make some noise!
