Boston area photographer | Marcie Scudder

“For years I walked the same path…always in a hurry to get to wherever it was I thought I might be going. There was always somewhere I needed to be..someone I needed to see….something I needed to do. So focused on the destination, I was missing out on the journey.

With that realization, I picked up my camera and began what quickly became a daily exercise in recording the world as I view it through my camera lens. The practice, as I have come to know it, is about finding the new in the everyday ordinary. It is about presence and awareness..and recording what ’is’. It is not necessarily about perfection. It is a reminder that there is hidden magic in the details, if we actually stop and take the time to look and see what it is we’re looking at.

My hope is to take you along with me as I walk and explore…and to share some of the peace and wonder I find along my way.

I live in Newton, Massachusetts a suburban community just west of Boston. The majority of my photographs are taken within a healthy walking distance of my home.”
