Greetings
I'm excited to share a special collection with you today that captures the essence of New England's rich history and timeless beauty. These aren't just towns; they're living stories nestled on the North Shore, specifically towns leading into the picturesque Cape Ann peninsula. Just north of Boston we've been visiting Beverly, Danvers, Ipswich, Hamilton and Wenham
These communities truly embody that 'Olde' New England personality we so often read about and offer a masterclass in enduring style and craftsmanship. They present the opportunity for unique aesthetic narratives and inspiration for creating authentic experiences. We are always adding new images to our local collections and will keep you up to date with new work.

A Glimpse of History
Typical New England Fence along snowy road with a shed in the background. The scene at the Rebecca Nurse homestead in Danvers offers a look back into history.
Ducks wintering in the tidal polls at Crane Reservation in Ipswich. Shot was taken near the entrance to Castle Hill. The area is noted for its wildlife and over 1,200 acres of beachfront, dunes, and maritime forest. While its beautiful in the summer there is still a vibe in the winter.
Shed at the Rebecca Nurse Homestead in Danvers MA. For a monotone image and a wood structure, the Sepia brings out the images character creating a felling of antiquity.
Works with our Cape Ann Collection
Check out our Cape Ann collection for images from Gloucester and Rockport. Its a beautiful area we consider our home base and go back over and over for fresh photography. Mixing and matching images from either collection can bring a unique sense of place and storied history to any space.
I'm always looking for ways to bring unique and inspiring perspectives to my clients. If you're an interior designer, architect, art collector, or part of the corporate, hospitality, or travel industries, I'd love to discuss how these pieces might fit into your next project. Let's create something beautiful together!
