MAINWe have just wrapped up a 2 month project with a very historical and wonderful church in downtown Boston. A full blog post is to come, but had to share this photo of their Dragon Downspouts. These are very hard to see from street level (although possible), and it is a unique design feature of the church that probably most Bostonians never new existed. Shoot us a message on our Facebook Fan Page if you think you know the church!

Old Manse Inn | Published Wedding | Wedding Style Magazine
Having a wedding featured in Grace Ormonde’s Wedding Style Magazine is always special. And having this wedding featured in the 2010 New England Issue was just as sweet! Earlier this month I blogged about Jessica and Scott’s wedding on Cape Cod and it was fantastic to see it actually in print! And seriously guys, the Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream surprise brought in at the end of the wedding was a super cool touch!

Jessica & Scott | Cape Cod Wedding | Old Manse Inn
Jessica and her husband Scott are just simply put, fantastic people. They have become good friends over the years and I am truly fortunate to know them outside of the wedding industry. Jessica (managing editor of grace ormonde Wedding Style magazine) works with a lot of amazing photographers both locally and from around the world on a regular basis and when she asked the question, “Are you open the weekend of October 9th?”, I was truly humbled and honored that she thought of us. Thank you Jess and Scott for allowing us to be such a close and important part of your wedding day!

We would love to have you as a Brian Phillips Photography FACEBOOK Fan! …. What kind of Fan will you be ??
Maybe you will be a prospective or occasional fan roped into signing up because another friend on Facebook told you to (really, that’s OK with us). Or maybe a hard and true fan, someone that already knows us, most likely worked with us in the past, and wants to stay on top of our current studio news: from blog posts that go live to what fun people and places we are photographing these days. And of course you might be (or soon be) a Super Fan. We have a bunch of these fans already and encourage this choice of course.
Regardless, we are welcoming you and everyone to our Facebook Fan Page and encourage you to be interactive with us. Have a photography question, ASK! Are you a casual shooter? A following professional? Maybe a new parent? Reach out, say hello, and and don’t hesitate to throw me crazy mind twisting questions. We have a wealth of knowledge and are happy to share. From photography tips and tricks to questions about running a small business. Want to know what kind of camera I think you should buy, become a fan. What photo lab do I use, what type of lens did I choose for a certain image I shot, who designed my website, you name it, we are here to help.
So simply click HERE or on the image below to get to our fanpage. We look forward to seeing you there!

Donate to Haiti | Chance to Win Framed & Mounted Fenway Print
Back in 2004, I traveled to the island of Grenada, British West Indies, to visit a good friend of mine who worked there for the Peace Corps. It was an absolutely beautiful island and I was introduced to some of the most humble, kind, and wonderful people that I have ever met. But to witness poverty on a scale not recognizable here in the United States was extremely moving. Not long after I left, the island was devistated by a massive Hurricane named Ivan. And to this day I feel terrible that there was so little I did (or could) do to help.
Enter the recent earthquake on the Caribbean island of Haiti. Obviously, an absolutely devistating event to say the least. My thoughts of Grenada quickly rekindled, and this time I am determined to do more. I am in a position with my photography business and my blog to reach out to so many people to encourage help and or donations… so here goes.
What I am asking is for you to make a minimum donation of $10.00 directly to any reputable charity where the money supports HAITI and their disaster relief effort. Then simply email me a copy of your receipt of payment as well as your name, address, and phone, to be entered into a drawing to receive a 24×20 Framed Print (actual print size is 20×16) showing Ted Williams red seat where he had hit the longest homerun in Fenway Park history. And in addition, one overly generous person who can show the largest donation above $100.00 will also receive the same 24×20 Framed print.
Here are some of the possible charities you can donate to … Unicef, American Red Cross, CARE, Doctors Without Borders, Clinton Bush Haiti Fund.
Please email me a copy of a receipt of your donation to Info@BrianPhillipsPhoto.com . (and of course you can black out any information that I don’t need)
I will close the raffle on Sunday January 31st, 2010, at 11:59PM. The winner(s) will be drawn the following day, Monday February 1st, with an announcement made on the blog indicating the winners. Please make sure all donations were made between the dates of Jan 21st (today) and Jan 31st. THANK YOU SO MUCH in advance for your charity and generosity!!!

Here are a few images I took while in Grenada, BWI, back in March 2004… just months prior to their hurricane. The photo with the wooden shack, tin roof (3rd down) had a family of about 8 people living in it. While the island had a beautiful port city names St. George’s that garnered tourism from crusie ships, the remainder of the island is extremely poor. I know this to be the same case with Haiti and won’t even try to comprehend the pain and suffering they are going thru right now and for generations to come.
Boston | Low of 9 degrees | HELP
Well the cold is starting to really get to me. Enough that I have to blog about it. And I am from Buffalo dammit! I guess it just gets tiring after 30 plus years. Cold, Snow, Shovel, and repeat. Cold, Snow, Shovel, and repeat. For at least 5 tiresome months in a row. And maybe it’s my brother who constantly reminds me of how nice it is in San Diego every single day. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind that the topic of beautiful weather comes up every phonecall at all. I just want to be warm and snow free (well not up in ski country of course). So I found myself this morning poking thru some San Diego desert pics I took last January while out visiting the baby bro. These few definitely warmed me up, and hopefully you as well if you share my “I need a permanent vacation” type attitude.
I feel much better now. Have a Great Weekend!
