It's Been a Busy Summer!

Wow, can summer be ending already? I've been back to work at LSS/MSS for two days and I've hardly had my toes in the sand all summer. It's been busy, but all good. PHOTOGRAPHY has been this summer's theme for me. Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, Fuller Gardens, Pemaquid Lighthouse, Ocean Point, Coppal House Farm Sunflower Festival were allon my radar. Still having fun with my Color Sketch effect on my Nikon d750.

This "I'm not a wedding photographer" had a blast photographing Molly & Bryan Ender's wedding on Sawyer Island in Boothbay, Maine on July 30th. They had the BEST weather of the summer, the most photogenic bridal party, a cannon shoot and a spectacular sunset over the water! It was so much fun that I've booked another wedding in October! :-)

I sold cards, postcards and calendars at Ocean Point Inn and had my photos, cards and calendars at the Hampton Arts Network Summer Gallery at Hampton Beach. I also went to Boothbay to do a Family Photo Shoot for the Lunts while their daughters were in town with their families. Mid-day sun and a beautiful, active five year old were the challenges of that shoot. Great practice and so much FUN! Ha ha, I didn't want to work at the Inn this summer because I didn't want to drive back and forth each week, but I've been to Boothbay four times since June 3rd and will go back Columbus Day weekend to pick up my cards and calendars that didn't sell this season. I always feel like I'm home when I'm at Ocean Point!

And just like that . . . 2022 is a Wrap!

It's been a busy 2022 for me & Bev Tabet Photography ! January was spent watching the Celtics, photographing my food 😂and frozen bubbles and attending the NHSPA Photography Show at the Exeter Town Hall Gallery. February was low key with more Celtics games, day knitting and Alpha Xi Sista ZOOMs. I did manage to get out of Dodge in March with a few days in Hull with my Alpha Xi roomie as we took the spectator boat for the Hull Snow Row. Got some great photos including some of rowers from the New Bedford Area. That was followed by a 5-day visit to Ocean Point, Maine with Joan Libby. Both are always a fun time! I took a little solo 68th birthday trip in April to Sheepscot Harbour Village in Edgecomb, Maine and got to go to my favorite Pemaquid Lighthouse and also Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse for some stormy images. I also got a taste of Spring at the Cider Hill Farm Tulip Fest in Amesbury, MA. In May I returned to Cider Hill Farm for pick-your-own tulips, photographe...

Day #12 Part 1, Fri. 7/13

Friday the 13th was an AWESOME day! Started the early day off with a Chobani raspberry yogurt before taking the 7:04 Amtrak Downeaster to Boston for my PhotoWalks Tour of the Boston waterfront. Packed some water because it was going to be a hot one! Got into North Station around 8:20 and my tour wasn't until 10. I just HAD to have a few last photos taken with Ray Allen in the TD Garden before they take him down! I had plenty of time to get to the Old State House Museum to meet for the tour so I walked over to Quincy Market and then up to State & Washington Streets. There was a sweet man sitting on the bench with his dog playing some sort of French percussion instrument. He had a little dog on the bench next to him . I asked if I could take some photos of him and he gladly obliged. I told him about the upcoming Hearts & Hands Show and he asked if the doggie's paw counted! :-) I took several photos and then Saba, the tour leader arrived. There w...

Birthday Blog

On April 19, 2022 a t 2:35 pm, the exact time of my birth 68 years later, I was at my very favorite place, Pemaquid Lighthouse! It worked out perfectly; I had planned on photographing sunrise, but it was raining so I went later in the day. THIS is 68! I left on my solo secret birthday road trip on Monday April 18th. I made a pit stop at the Yarmouth Information Center to pick up some brochures. A guy in the parking lot saw my CELTS-6 license plate and Celtics hat and started talking about how great Sunday’s game was! :-) Once a year, I always like to go somewhere I haven’t been before. I took a side trip to Land’s End on Bailey Island. Just sorry I never made it there before my friend, Dan Millar, passed away. I want to go back for photos of The Giant Stairs, Lookout Point, Cribstone Bridge and the little lobster shack in Mackerel Cove when it’s a little warmer. When I lived in Maine I would go to Tortola in April. Now I go from NH to Maine! LoL I arrived...
