Brookline & Allston have given birth to many of the greats from JFK to Conan…and true to their tradition they continue to play host to so many of the most interesting New Englanders.
Through our research for the Inspiring Stories series we have come across so many breathtaking photos of the amazing souls that make our city such a great place to live. In depth interviews are at the heart of Voyage but with our Portraits series we want to use the powerful medium of photography to highlight some of our favorite people from various parts of New England.
Below you’ll find some of our favorites from Brookline & Allston and the surrounding areas– we encourage you to click into the profiles and check out all of these incredible folks.
Wooden Spoon Studio | Creative Agency & Food Consultant
Desiree here, braving the camera to share my face, my studio and my carrot cakes with you all. I tested two cakes for my book today—both of which are tasty, neither of which are where I want them to be. I’ll write two more recipes for next week. But first, dessert 🥕 #woodenspoonstudio #experimentswithdes

Photographer Kate Lemmon
Happy Friiidayyy!!! It’s been awhile since #fridayintroductions, so let’s do this thing! . My name is Kate and I’m a family photographer living in downtown Boston (just a couple blocks away from Fenway Park, for any Red Sox fans out there!) I’ve been running my business for almost 10 years, 6 of which I also spent in school studying classical music before jumping headfirst into full-time photography in 2014. There are so many reasons to love this job, but my favorite part is the opportunity to document stories for my clients that I hope their children will treasure someday. . On any given day, you’ll most likely find me sipping iced coffee (even in the freezing winter weather), eating $5 takeout with my teacher husband (Emmanuel/E for short), planning our next @airbnb adventure, quoting Leslie Knope from Parks & Rec, and wandering around the city just taking it all in. ✨ . If you’re new around here, tell me where in the world you’re located! Curious to know how many different places we can rep . : @lenamirisola!!

Definitely one of my favorite sets
Fitness Coach Ben Johnson
I trained hips and hamstrings today. – That meant heavy deadlifts and some fun glute-focused accessory lifts. One of my favorites? Just about any hip thrust variation. – Usually, people neglect hip dominant workouts. If you want to get leaner, faster, or stronger, train you glutes. Period. As my old exercise prescription professor always said: "The hips are the powerhouse of the body." – Train them to get better results—no matter your goals. #bootygains #glutes – What's your favorite booty-focused exercise? . . . . . #fitnessforfoodlovers #fitness #fatloss #fit #fatlosstips #strength #strengthcoach #food #foodie #foodies #foodlover #fitfood #fitfoodie #fitfoodies #fitfoodlover #diet #dietplan #diettips #nutritioncoaching #boston #bostonfitness #bostonfoodie #bostontrainer #gymitwatertown #bentrained
Poet & dancer Dana Alsamsam
Beat the cold, opened up to the poems, applied for things I might be totally unqualified for, articulated new goals for myself as a dancer & choreographer. Practicing radical optimism as protest in 2018.
