For last weekend’s Boston Globe Magazine, I photographed five spring recipes from Adam Ried: Roman-style Braised Artichokes, Quinoa with Fava Beans, Radishes and Feta, Roasted Spring Onions with Mustard Breadcrumbs, Asparagus and Eggs with Herbed Mayonnaise, and Beets with Rhubarb and Orange. Many thanks to Catrine Kelty for the beautiful styling!
When you view so much content online, I can’t think of any better word to describe seeing images printed than exhilerating - especially when they are printed well and on high-quality paper. If there is something I’ve photographed for you, or just an image you’re interested in having a print of from my site, contact me for more information.
Net profit from any orders placed from today until Thursday, March 14 will be added to my Whole Planet Foundation donation page. Whole Planet Foundation’s mission is poverty alleviation through microcredit in communities worldwide that supply Whole Foods stores with products. The goal I set up is small, but enough to provide a microloan and the opportunity for an impoverished woman to create or expand a home-based business. Occasionally I will be finding small ways to do a little good through your print orders. For updates, sign up for my newsletter.

Beautiful! Working in fisheries in Gloucester, I’m always so drawn to beautifully-captured whole fish photos like this. Something so satisfying about cooking and photographing whole fish – this inspires me to cook whole fish more often!
Brian Quinn (“Q”) and his wife Beth, photographed for the winter issue of Edible Boston. They’ve created some flavors of roasted nuts that I think are just genius! Check out the article on Q’s Nuts online if you missed the issue.

I met Tanya Harsch, a classically trained oil painter, at the Waltham Mills Open Studios this past fall. She teaches at the Boston Center for Adult Education and also offers private lessons in her studio. Early one morning, I photographed her working on a still life study and the details of her workspace. While she was working on her study, I was able to do a bit of a test as well, for a project I’m trying to develop with video. I’m quickly learning that it is going to be a very, very long-term project with a lot of learning involved!
One of the things I’ve been telling people who are just getting started with a creative endeavor is to dedicate (demand) a small fraction of time in their schedule for experimenting – even a tiny bit of time is better than none. While we were snowed in, I painted again just for fun. My friend who teaches Italian just signed up for a French class, so that she could remember what it was like to be an absolute beginner. It’s creative cross-training, and I think of it as the equivalent to turning the painting upside-down and looking at it that way.

Great to see Tanya at work! This woman is an awe inspiring and very unique artist!
I agree with allowing time for experimentation! i am a travel photographer , sometimes you have to capture a moment on a whim and as such cannot be experimental at the time! So i have learnt that any time dedicated to trying new things beforehand allows you a certain flexibility not usually found in the field! I also look forward to seeing more of your photography and videos Kristin, great work!
creative cross-training!
I love it – beautiful work, as usual.
Tara Mardigan is the team nutritionist for the Boston Red Sox and also provides individual nutrition counseling, group workshops and more. She worked with Trisha Leavitt of Silver Lining Design to create her website, The Plate Coach. I worked with these two incredible women to provide photographs that would enhance the site. Over the past year, it has been a pleasure working with freelancers, small businesses, and start-ups to create images that help to showcase their brand. I’ll be sharing more of those stories and launching a stock library soon…stay tuned!
