PALETTE Program

May 15, 2018By Briget

Promoting Art for Life Enrichment Through Transgenerational Engagement (PALETTE) is a program that connects health professional students (mostly VCU pharmacy students, I believe) and active older adults. Together, they create art projects together. It’s all about fostering friendships that can break down generational stereotypes. It was a pleasure photographing another exhibit and reception for the program.

100th Birthday

June 22, 2015November 3, 2017By Briget

Happy 100th birthday to this fashionista, my grandmother-in-law, Beatrice Sweeney. Bea was born on June 17, 1915–the same year Billie Holiday and Frank Sinatra were born. Woodrow Wilson was president and WWI was just beginning. Bea has lived her whole life in Saratoga Springs, where she served for years as the city historian.

Real People

December 11, 2014November 3, 2017By Briget

I know that my friends, the Whorleys, look like models assembled to act like a family for a magazine shoot. But they are real. They really do look and love this beautifully.

Maymont

November 19, 2014November 3, 2017By Briget

There is a reason why Maymont is everyone’s favorite place in Richmond to take portraits–beautiful gardens, fish-filled ponds, elegant stonework and architecture, and 100 acres of trees.

First Fall

November 3, 2014November 3, 2017By Briget

Fall is a reminder of the joy of color, the joy of falling down, the joy even of getting hurt and getting back up on our feet ready to try again.

Explorations

October 20, 2014November 3, 2017By Briget

I love working with students new to photography who teach me how to see in unique ways. This weekend I went out with Annie Ward, who is 18 and has a new DSLR camera, to Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. Plants–the most patient subjects! We explored depth of field, pattern, light, and perspective.
