One of my favorite things to do the past few summers has been photographing some of the children in summer school programs around the Boston area. It’s not a bad day at work when you get to hang out with kids all day, particularly when it’s outside. This year I started working with a new client, Young Achievers Science Math and Pilot School, where I photographed their students both in the Boston Nature Center as well as their regular classrooms.

Summer Learning Project IV
Another year’s worth of pictures shot for Boston After School & Beyond of their various summer school programs. Each year I end up in different locations and it’s been really interesting to see the wide variety of educational experiences these kids get throughout the Boston area.

Summer Learning Project III
This past summer marks my third year taking photos for Boston After School & Beyond's Summer Learning Project, a summer education program with sites all over the Boston area, where students spend the morning on academics and the afternoon on a variety of activities. I always enjoy getting to spend my summers with the kids and looking for new pictures in the various classroom settings.
Camp HOLA
This past summer I had a lot of fun producing a video for one of Boston After School & Beyond's Summer Learning Project sites, Camp HOLA at Hale Reservation. The kids were really great to work with and I got to spend a couple days with them, capturing a wide range of activities.
Summer Learning Project II
This past summer I was really glad to get a chance to work with Boston After School & Beyond again to document some of their Summer Learning Project sites around the Boston area. The Summer Learning Project is a summer education program where students spend the mornings on academics and the afternoons on "enrichment activities", which can be anything from swimming, to gardening, to visiting animals at the zoo.
Summer Learning Project
This past summer I spent two weeks photographing Boston After School and Beyond's Summer Learning Project, a summer education program where students spend the morning on academics and the afternoon on a variety of activities. The program has 18 different sites around Boston and I bounced around to six of them trying to show off the unique characteristics of each.
