Bren Bataclan’s Smile Boston Project
It’s rare to come across someone as enthusiastic about their work as Bren Bataclan is. October marks the 6 year point since Bren’s first appearance at Cambridge Open Studios. Since then Smile Boston Project has been helping to make people smile all throughout the world by leaving free paintings for people to take, each with a sign saying:
“Everything will be all right
this painting is yours to take for free!“
When I asked Bren how many paintings he had left, he commented that “they are all serialized… but somehow I lost count.” I hope that you enjoy the shots of Bren and if you see him around the streets of Cambridge feel free to say “hi” and SMILE!

Make Music Cambridge
I had the privilege today to attend Make Music Cambridge today in Harvard Square. There were many great musicians and some dedicated crowds that braved the drizzly Boston weather to make the event a great success. I want to personally recognize my friend Alexis Berthier for organizing yet another great music festival in Harvard Square. The first images are of a wildly talented Berklee College of Music student Silvina Moreno. She was joined inside of the entry way at The Coop by her classmate Eddie. Also, for the first time, there is a video shot with my Nikon D90 of Silvina and Eddie performing. The remainder of the images here are of a variety of musicians throughout the event.
What We’re Doing Here
Hey, so I should explain a little bit about what I’m doing here. This is my photo blog where I will show you recent and old photos, explain where/what I shot, and hopefully receive some feedback. The site it a place for me to showcase my work and for you, my fans(!/?), to see my latest shots.
The first shot here is from 92.9’s Earth Fest on Saturday, 5/30, along the Charles River in Boston. The main stage was far too busy, so I found a small band playing up the river from the Hatch Shell. They had a good sound and were fun to watch, this is what I consider to be my best shot of the group.
Thanks for stopping by!
