If you’re here, you’re probably Googling things like “how much do photos cost” or “what do I wear for a session” with approximately 37 tabs open. Maybe you’re wondering if your kids will cooperate, or if you’ll look awkward, or if this whole thing will just feel like another item on an already overwhelming to-do […]

In seventh grade, I decided to study the effects of ultraviolet light on plants. I chose that topic because I was really into the idea of mutation. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. X-Men. The cultural idiom at the time that radiation gives you superpowers and not, you know, a slow and agonizing death. So I bought […]

“Corey Flint is an award-winning photographer from Lincoln, MA,” is a phrase that makes me mildly ill to say out loud, but objectively speaking, it is true. However, I’ve had a complicated relationship with awards and external validation my whole life. That’s a longer story. You can read it here. Basically, I’ve looked for outside […]

Gus needed an MRI when he was four months old. (Spoiler: he’s fine, everything turned out fine.) Our options were to either inject him with radioactive dye for imaging or do an MRI without anesthesia. As great as it sounded to turn our son into a human glow stick, we opted for the MRI. The […]

A Retraction Old Man Winter and I have had our ups and downs. As a kid I loved him. Then I was an anti-winter curmudgeon for 15 years. Then I tried to use him to biohack me into a better person. Since having kids, though? I’m a straight up hater again. It’s not even the […]

Winter family photography sessions in Lincoln, Massachusetts were not something I planned on offering. For years I avoided it entirely. Too cold, too logistically brutal with small kids, and the assumption that nobody wanted to stand in a frozen field pretending to be happy about it. Then I got a pair of snowshoes off the […]

Golden hour light was streaming through the trees on their Weston property, backlighting the ferns and what was left of the fall color. It was one of those late November afternoons where the weather does exactly what you hoped it would, and you spend the whole session quietly grateful you didn’t have to explain to […]

I’m sitting on the floor of our bedroom sorting through a basket of random crap. Gummy bears. Two nickels that are mysteriously stuck together. Box cutters. Three kinds of tape, which prompts me to form a tape pile. At least 20,000 yards of dental floss. Inexplicably two “sunrise” alarm clocks that are supposed to wake […]

I recently photographed these two sweet families at our farm in Lincoln, Massachusetts for their annual fall photo session—and it was their fourth year in a row coming back! The foliage was at absolute peak in October, the weather couldn’t have been more perfect, and the late afternoon light was just magical. After four years […]

The best gift we ever received (gift as in “object given for free,” anyway) came completely out of nowhere. A few years ago, before Mae was born, we invited some new neighbors over to the farm to meet the alpacas. At one point, the mom asked if we had any alpaca wool she could buy. […]
