I had the great fortune to spend some time with a great friend, Jason Reuben (like the sandwich), who is now living in LA working on his next tech startup.  We had a lot of fun ducking in and out of cupcake stores and night clubs to get the shots that you see here.

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!

Sunil recently graduated from HBS  and I had the great fortune of getting to spend some time with my friend before he headed out of town for San Fran.  I hope you like the photos as much as he did!  Best of luck with you business, Sunil!

My friend Ece has spent the past 4 years in Boston going to school at Babson, and sadly it’s her time to return to her home of Istanbul, Turkey.  Fortunately we had a chance to get together before she left to take some shots.  We were able to take advantage of a variety of spots and landmarks in and around Harvard Square and MIT.  We especially had fun at the Stata Center at MIT.

I had a great opportunity to take some marketing shots of some marketing professionals from Wellesley Hlls Group.   John and Mike have written a new book.  I wish them the best of luck, hopefully these photos help!
