CTPhotoJourney in Elizabeth Park

by Kim Bova on June 29, 2009

The roses were glorious, and the sun did shine.  We could not have asked for a more perfect time.

There were just a few of us but that did not dampen our spirits!  Not only did we photograph roses and the people in the garden, but there was a family of young mallards that had us captivated.  They must have been only a few days old!  I don’t know his name, but this man was playing the recorder so beautifully!

Here is a shot that John took of me and Peter under the rose arches.

The water was very murky, but they were safe and happy.

Thanks John and Peter for a great CTPhotoJourney in the park!  Since I only had two people join me, I was able to tailor it to their interests and needs.

Stay tuned for the next photo adventure and learning experience!

by Kim Bova on June 22, 2009

Meet Sarah Masterson.  She is a beautiful and talented graduate student of piano performance at the University of Connecticut.

She recently came to me for her professional portrait.  Here is one of my favorites as she sat at the piano.  Good thing I have one in my studio!

Class Photo

by Kim Bova on June 3, 2009

The Stonington Borough PhotoJourney was a great success!  We spent the afternoon and evening exploring light, composition and finding the beauty in interesting details in this enchanting town.  I am so proud of all my students as I could see how much they grew over the course of the afternoon.  Everyone had questions and concerns when we started but by the time sunset was upon us, it seemed as if everyone was sailing well on their own.   Some students had to learn some hard lessons when battery power died, but I have to say that when one student got down on the ground to get the angle she was looking for, my heart jumped for joy!  She was seeing in new ways!  Good work, everyone.  Hope to see you all on another PhotoJourney soon!

121Thank you Jean Molodetz for taking this photo of us!  From L to R is Roxanne, Olivia, Bob, Meg, Allan, me and Gina.

We were relaxing on the sea wall before heading off to dinner at Noah’s Restaurant.  Great food!  Go check it out!
