LAUREL HILL FLORAL DESIGN

It's so wonderful to see a logo in action! I designed this for Laurel Hill Floral Design just about a year ago and she has certainly come a long way as her new site has just launched!

Laurel Hill Floral Design is  a boutique floral design company based out of owner Laura Chadwell’s home in East Boston, MA. She is a third generation florist who started her training gathering scraps of flowers as they fell from her mother’s arranging table. She specializes in special event floral design, including weddings, showers, and nonprofit events.

I have been lucky enough to work with Laura on numerous occasions including her engagement photos and now with her new business. Have a wedding or an event coming up? You should definitely consider Laurel Hill Floral Design!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

I captured this photograph after a huge snowstorm in the Arnold Arboretum. It truly was like walking through a winter wonderland! I'm wishing you all a wonderful holiday season and best wishes for a happy healthy new year.

BOSTON CHORAL ENSEMBLE

"A CHORAL HOLIDAY"

I've been the designer for the Boston based choral group; The Boston Choral Ensemble (BCE) 2012-2013 Season. The Boston Choral Ensemble is a chamber choir that seeks to enrich the choral art through innovative programming, artistic excellence, and creative collaboration. BCE is dedicated to performing a wide range of repertoire with stylistic integrity, promoting new music, and educating its audience and singers.  It's been a wonderful experience so far working for this extremely talented group. 

Their next concert is right around the corner for the holiday season. Join BCE  on Saturday, December 15th at Boston’s Old South Church in Copley Square, to hear pieces including Thompson’s Stopping by woods on a snowy evening, Judith Weir’s My Guardian Angel, and Jan Sandström’s creative re-imagining of Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming. 

Tickets can be found here. Enjoy!

ALL-MENDELSSOHN PROGRAM

Conductor Bramwell Tovey will lead the orchestra Thursday, January 26 through Tuesday, January 31, 2012 in Mendelssohn's Lobgesang (Hymn of Praise), for soloists, chorus, and orchestra, with sopranos Carolyn Sampson and Camilla Tilling, tenor Mark Padmore, and the Tanglewood Festival Chorus.

This piece is a beautiful symphony cantata featuring orchestra, chorus and three vocal soloists. Mendelssohn wrote the choral Symphony No. 2 in B-flat major, entitled Lobgesang (Hymn of Praise), to mark the celebrations in Leipzig of the 400th anniversary of the invention of the printing press; the first performance took place on 25 June 1840.

Interested in attending one of the four performances? Purchase your tickets here.
