portraits from TEDxAmoskeagMillyard 2013: the presenters
Continuing yesterday's post: these presenters (the host, speakers, and artists) excelled in their respective tasks. I didn't want to ask them for a portrait prior to being on stage: some were clearly (and understandably) nervous, so being relaxed and open to a portrait would have been difficult or even impossible. The one exception to this was the host Virginia Prescott: being a host for NHPR, I knew she'd be comfortable on stage; and she'd be occupied all day, so she became one of my first subjects.
I'm grateful to everyone who agreed to sit for me during a full and hectic schedule. The entire experience of the TEDx conference—the people, the presentations, the portraits—made for an unforgettable day.
The full set of portraits is also available on my website.

Shakespeare's "Macbeth" by theatre kapow
album cover for En Route's debut
Brother and sister folk duo Jon and Alana Babineau of En Route came to the studio a couple months ago to photograph the cover of their debut album. These two have a maturity and sound beyond their years. We had a great session, and, this being also my first album cover, I'm very pleased the results.
Their album release party is tonight at Amoskeag Studio.

Her paintings will be on display at Amoskeag Studio for the coming weeks, with the opening held on April 26 in conjunction with a performance by the Brad Myrick Quintet, celebrating the release of their album, Halogen.
Beth Ann O'Hara for New Hampshire Magazine
Beth Ann O'Hara, March 2014. |
I asked whether she had those photographs at hand, but after a search, she couldn't locate them. We promised each other another visit to explore them and discuss this part of state and national history from one who witnessed it in a way few others did.
The above unpublished photograph from our session shows her intricate needlepoint art hanging on the wall. They depict the four seasons.

Lauren Karjala, artist
Lauren Karjala, 2012. |
I met Lauren a few years ago through her family (her father is a photographer). I was beginning to actively photograph artists in their studios, so I asked to visit her. At that time, she was living and working in the basement of her grandmother's condo, which had been transformed by her figure paintings, drawings, and sketches of all sizes.
Towards the end of our visit, I realized that, during our conversations, she had been sketching me. Before we parted, she wiped it away.
Lauren's senior exhibit opens at the University of New Hampshire's Museum of Art on Friday.

a cover for Parable Magazine
Knowing that I may not have access to her again, we asked to see her family farm, where many of her siblings still reside and work. Knowing this would very likely become a cover story, I made portraits in multiple locations there. The resulting article and photographs were just published.

Washington, DC, 2013. |
As mentioned in yesterday's post, a Mass is said at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception the night before the March for Life. The Mass is televised throughout the side and lower chapels, where many have camped for hours just to claim a space.

The day prior to the March for Life is a morning protest before a Planned Parenthood clinic in the city. The protesters extended their reach to the sidewalk across the street.
