Idyllic forests on the way down Mt. Sargeant on Mt. Desert Island, Maine.
A dreamy, surreal day of biking, swimming, picnicking, and beach walking on Block Island, a 50-minute ferry ride from Point Judith, Rhode Island. Hot sunshine, warm sand, crashing waves, rural roads....
Providence is transforming. Its bleak, grey streets, previously lifeless skeletons of plants, still murky waters – everything is suddenly blooming into glorious life. Trees are thick with fluff...
Last weekend in Bar Harbor was so glorious. I shot it in 35mm color film and got it developed at a cheap 1-hour place; I love the film grain and how the dust and scratches make it feel old. Here ar...
A mysterious roll of unlabeled color film that I cluelessly developed on Monday turned out to hold a few precious, surreal fisheye shots of northern Norway in early summer 2008. What unbelievable for...
Back in the kitchen. Tired of boring breakfasts and intrigued by this new craze over chia seeds, I was wasting time on the Internet one day when I came across this beautiful recipe on Tastespotting. ...
It had been a busy few weeks. As soon as school was out for spring break I headed straight across the country for a Wilderness First Responder course through Wilderness Medical Associates, which in a...
A new obsession has begun. While briefly at home during winter break, I tried to photographically document particularly beautiful aspects of my surroundings both with my (admittedly glorious) Canon 5...
The last few weeks have been devoted almost entirely to relaxation; to purposefully not doing anything, a concept pretty foreign to me and hard to make myself do. But man, has it been glorious! I r...
April 4th, 2011 At the crack of dawn, only the faintest shades of blue illuminating the stone patio where we slept, we were hurriedly awoken by our NOLS instructors, encouraged to wolf down a bowl of...
April 2nd, 2011 “Wake up. We are arriving.” Someone’s hand gently nudged my foot, and I blinked into consciousness. Through the sliding curtains of my berth near the ceiling, I glimpsed Gaurav, th...
My dad always says that “what you’re looking for is looking for you,” and in the recent years I have found that statement to be especially true. I feel like I’m always active...
These days, I’m looking forward to the eventual return of the midnight sun. Here are some photos from a lovely few days in Steinkjer, Norway in early 2009.
On Friday morning, as I prepared for a day of field trip festivities in Boston, I called Zach repeatedly to try and make weekend plans. No answer. As I would need to leave directly from the Boston ...
Back in the Northeast, I now reflect on the time spent at home in Alaska this winter break. It was a beautiful winter – bitter cold, deep snow, soft winter light. I skied nearly every day, fr...

The most humorous addition to our Christmas festivities this year: a remote-controlled inflatable shark that swam through the air in a convincingly sharklike fashion.
The highlight of Christmas in Washington State – a hike at Staircase in Olympic National Park.
Classes ended and we drove South. Away from New England and its cobblestone streets and clear cold skies, out of Rhode Island and through Connecticut, New Jersey, New York. We were in West Virginia b...
As a momentary distraction from studying from finals and writing research papers, I have taken a few moments to contemplate my favorite city on earth, Istanbul. Aside from places that I consider home...
All of a sudden, December is nearly upon us. Light posts are wrapped in fir garlands and bows, decorative lights illuminate neighborhood windows, and there is Christmas music everywhere. In the pas...
My memories of Thanksgivings growing up are a blur of cozy, informal dinners either in our dining room in Alaska or at friend’s ski cabin – long evenings gathered around tables of family ...
March 30th, 2008. One of the happiest days I remember. We spent all day playing in the snow like little kids, next to a sculpture appropriately titled “Heaven on Earth”. I do not know ...
April 1st, 2011 Our second morning in Delhi began on a much more relaxed note than the first. Still somewhat astonished by the sheer amount of sightseeing we had managed to accomplish in under 24 ho...
The last week has been one of absolute exhaustion and astounding levels of stress focused on the completion of an assignment titled “Collective Portrait”, a series of portraits of everyon...
I’ve always wanted to take a picture like this, but somehow never have until last night. I spent the weekend working as a photographer at a ballroom dancing competition in Massachusetts, a thr...
One of my next assignments is to shoot a series on people and place, including a series of either portraits or self-portraits. I decided it was time to create a picture I’d had in my head for f...
I made this soup several weeks ago, and completely forgot about it until a photo of it appeared on my memory card yesterday. It was absolutely delicious, and beautiful – worth sharing – ...
Oftentimes, Norway is the only thing I can think about.
