{Sassy Boutique} Grand Opening

abbeyknoll — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 16:53:22 +0000

I hosted the {Sassy Boutique} Grand Opening on Saturday night. It was a blast, but boy, my dogs were barking. I was on my feet for about 3 days getting everything ready. I’m so happy that Terri Martini, owner of Front Street Gourmet in Scituate, her friend Natalie, and Tara Hollander, owner of Doorknock Dinner in Norwell, stepped up to help me out with food and bevvies.

Over the last two days, Ive gotten a bunch of positive feedback, and and am so happy about all the buzz. Here are some pics from the big night:

{Sassy Boutique} Welcomes Green Mountain Apothecary

We at the boutique are so excited about our latest vendor, Samantha, a Master Herbalist studying to become a Holistic Health Practitioner. Her love for aromatherapy began when she started her family and wanted to find alternative methods of natural medicine for her children. It developed into a love and passion for creating remedies that help in everyday life.

Whether creating herbal remedy pillows, organic herbal teas, or healing balms, she know she is doing her part in helping make someone’s life greater by sharing my products. She is one of our most remote New England vendors, living in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont in a simple little town.

Stop into the shop to see some of Samantha’s bubble baths, body mists, herbal pillows, teas, … the list goes on!

{Sassy Boutique} at Abbey Knoll

Last October I started this new adventure, taking my photography to the next level I rented a shop near my house in a 200 year old barn. It was exciting and new and I spent much of the fall into December painting, prepping and shooting there.

As the year ended and I truly realized how much space I really have, I decide to use the space in another way entirely.

I’m opening a boutique for local crafters and artists!

I put out a call for local jewelry makers, knitters, soap makers, authors, and theyre coming in droves! I have met so many talented people! This exciting new endeavor has taken on a life of its own and the shop is really starting to look like … a shop!

Have a look:

Ive been having a blast with some new babies at the studio! THey are so sweet and sleepy. I love them all, but don’t miss all those sleepless nights and diapers. I’m ok with letting them go home after we’re done with our session

The New Studio is Taking Shape

abbeyknoll — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 16:52:02 +0000

For those of you that dont know, in the midst of fall foliage sessions/christmas card season, I decided to rent a studio. Its absolutely amazing and I’m thrilled to finally have adequate workspace. The new space is an old barn, a really old barn, with no insulation and a not so great heating system.

I’m a New Englander, so I adapt.

Its amazing space, with old brick walls, barnwood floors and a big old fishing boat in the back yard. Here’s a pic of the old boat I shot for you to check out.

I’m a slacker

I dedicated 2011 to a Photo A Day project, and I think I did a pretty good job considering I spend a large portion of the summer in Paris, without the ability to upload photos.

It was fall foliage sessions that finally broke me.

I shot about 50 families in October and had to process and edit all their photos, then jumped straight into Christmas Card season. BUT I’m not complaining, I’ve been having tons of fun!

Now, its time to start blogging again, because I’ve got so much to tell you!

Stay tuned!
