Hedge Funds Cares | Charity Event | Boston Children’s Museum

admin — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 23:18:57 +0000

Last month I volunteered my services to the annual Hedge Funds Cares event held at the Boston Children’s Museum. Hedge Funds Cares is an international charity, supported largely by the hedge fund industry, whose sole mission is preventing and treating child abuse. Since 1998, they have awarded over 800 grants totaling $40 million. The Boston fundraising event uses a silent auction to help raise money with items ranging from sports memorabilia to vacations in the Bahamas. This was the third year I have photographed the event.

Sen. Scott Brown was honored at the Boston event for his courage earlier this year in sharing his own experience regarding abuse as a child. Brown’s special assistant Jennifer Franks was on hand to receive the award from Hedge Funds Cares founder Rob Davis.

I also wanted to share a link to our friend and fellow florist’s website who also donated their services to the event. Tangerine Creations!!!

Halloween Costumes | Charity Event | Room to Grow

admin — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 15:13:51 +0000

A 1000 Thank Yous to all of those who came out to see us and support the Room to Grow organization. And for anyone who couldn’t make it but would still love to make a donation, feel free to contact me directly brian@brianphillipsphoto.com and we could set up a time to meet at the studio in the next week or two for a quick shoot.

Here is a sampling of the super fun kids that made it. And yes, that is our son Mateo in the cow costume. Of course my child was the only one to cry. But nothing a pumpkin munchkin couldn’t fix.

Also many thanks to the help and coordination from our good friend and past client Steffanie Merloni, and donations made by Russo’s market in Waltham for the pumpkin donation, and Riverside Management Group / Dunkin Donuts, who generously donated the munchkins and coffee. THANK YOU ALL!!!

Just a wonderful wonderful wedding I have been meaning to share that we shot at the InterContinental Hotel in Boston at the tail end of last season. Exquisitely planned and designed by Michele Mottola and her staff. Stephanie and Sal were married at a hidden gem of a Church in Somerville, St. Catherines of Genoa Parish.

Boston Skyline | End of the World | May 21st Fog

admin — Thu, 26 May 2011 17:47:21 +0000

Just after a photoshoot this past Saturday at MIT (about 5PM) I was walking back to my car parked near the Charles and saw this errie looking, low dark cloud passing by the Prudential Bldg.. Mind you, in the back of my mind was the fact that the day was the much hyped May 21st, End of the World Day. I must admit my mind raced around for a little bit. Hey, the fog was really dark and definitely a sight I haven’t seen before in Boston.
