Boyerisms: Picking a peck of whatever......

Ok, so maybe we aren’t picking pickled peppers, but corn, tomatoes, onions, okra, squash, zucchini, a couple of different lopes, three different watermelons, and of course peaches and nectarines. !!!! If you read the blog, you know I have been following the season at a small family farm on 1700 Severn Road in Anne Arundel County called Boyer Farms. I don’t know what is nicer, the people or the produce. Stop by and buy something fresh if you are in the mood for summer, they don’t grow it better anywhere else.

Boyerisms: Better Than Petticoat

I think the Boyer ladies win hands down over those Bradley girls in Petticoat Junction. All of these women have, or still do, work at the farm stand on 1500 Severn Road. I had a great time taking their portraits. Thanks Rachael for coming up with the plan. Make sure to visit the farm and gets some home grown produce if you are out and about on Route 100, in Anne Arundel County.








Weddings!

I’ve been shooting a lot of weddings lately along side my bosses. If you want to see more examples, visit my website at www.thesmilecollector .com. Here is a small sample from the last few……

Boyerisms: FYI -Toby is not DUMB!

O.K, Despite what the gods of the watermelon patch decree, Toby may be one of the smartest pickers on the crew. Still not convinced? His second job is tutoring students in math! I was going to write about the sweet corn that is in, but the melons are out producing everything! The “lopes” all decided on multiple births, including the Siamese Twin. Greg can be seen here pitching luscious yellow watermelons (not sure what their real name is) while J. catches (and for the record J. did nab that one in his t-shirt). If you’re around route 100, visit the Boyer Peach Orchard and Farm Stand at 1500 Severn Road.

Model Mayhem: July 14th

Saturday July 14th, I went to my first Model Mayhem meet and greet in downtown D.C. After the lunch hour, we had a lot of willing models and photographers that got to work together. Variety is the spice of life, and so it was.

Boyerisms: Fried Green Toe-mah-toes

Ok, so the crew over at Boyer’s farm has decided that their blog entries should be called Boyerisms, which is fine by me. The peaches continue to ripen, with almost a new variety every week. Some of them are limited, like the white peaches on the back of the truck bed, and they go quickly. It’s not just peaches that are ripe either, the tomatoes are coming in like gangbusters. I fried up two beautiful ones for lunch the other day. Boyer farm is located at 1500 Severn Road, right around the corner from Anne Arundel Mall, go check out the farm stand if you are in the neighborhood.

July 7th, 2007: Divas in Black

These co-workers decided they wanted to celebrate their time working together with a photo shoot in downtown Baltimore. They all wore black and rocked the docks despite the terrible heat that day. Here are some samples.
