Franklin Farm Community Garden in Cumberland RI

The Franklin Farm is a town-owned historic farm. Recently added to the National Register of Historic Places, Franklin Farm encompasses over 65 acres of land and includes a mid-19th century Greek Revival-style farmhouse; an early-19th century timber-framed barn; a ca. 1903 dairy barn; and a 20th-century garage. Used for many years as a dairy farm, the land and buildings now belong to the public, under the direction of the Historic Metcalf-Franklin Farm Preservation Association. The farms is dedicated to growing fresh produce for Rhode Islanders in need. The farm is overseen by a volunteer coordinator who works in conjunction with the Food Bank. The Farm Coordinators facilitate the involvement of local volunteers, including schools, businesses and other civic groups. The Farm Coordinator oversees the prepping, planting, and maintenance, harvesting and seasonal shut-down of the farms. The Farm’s goal of providing fresh produce for Rhode Islanders in need while preserving valuable land can only be achieved with the invaluable help of volunteers.

We do as much volunteering at the farm as we can, taking care of the chickens and helping in the harvesting of the vegetables. One of my projects is photographing the restoration of the farm house and barn, I will be photographing the progress of the restoration, starting with the barn and then moving on to the farm house. I have been also photographing the flowers around the property, which are in this post.

The Marissa Maternity Project

Last month I started photographing Marissa's maternity progress. We are going to do a photography session every now and then to show how big her little "D" is getting. Marissa is due on December 15th, so we will have a lot more sessions before the arrival so her bundle of joy.

This is a fun project and Maternity photography is something I like to do. I love to see the joy of the expectant parents when they see the photos. It makes me happy to bring this joy to someone else.

Nowak Kids at the Beach

Photographed the Nowak Kids Portrait at the beach in Narragansett RI yesterday. We had the date set up a while ago, when the weather was warm and sunny. When it came down to the day (which was Monday) it rained all day and continued for another two days. The weather was to break and be nice for Wednesday. So we made the commitment to go for it. When we showed up it started to sprinkle but in a few moments it stopped and we made our photos. Which turned out great and the Nowaks were happy with the family portrait.
