Back in October I was approached by Brian and Daniela of Bearwalk Cinema. They proposed the idea of collaborating to make a film based on my love for photography, how nature influences my art, and my strong passion for beekeeping.
It was truly an honor working with Bearwalk. If you like the film, follow them on twitter, facebook, and instagram.

Identity Portrait Presentation at the Photographic Resource Center
It was an honor to speak about my current body of work at the Photographic Resource Center which is part of Boston University.
I displayed some new prints that deal with Identity/Portraiture at the Nights at the PRC.
“I had been wanting to talk about my photographs that deal with the concept of identity for a long time. The PRC offers an excellent platform for photographers to show their work and discuss it with a group of local artists.
I had never shown this identity series to anyone, but after the night at the PRC I was able to gather opinions, ideas, and useful feedback about the work.” – Renée Ricciardi
Overall, it was a great experience.
New Interview in Canada
I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Beekeeper's Naturals, a Canada based blog and company.
Some fun questions include:
"So Renée, most 20 year olds are consumed with whose house party they can crash. What motivated you to take on beekeeping at the ripe age of 20?"
&
"I know Italy is amazing and I love pizza as much as the next person but you’re from Boston, so why not focus on the bees there or somewhere closer to home? Why did you pick up your entire life and cross the Atlantic?"
Needless to say, I had fun with this interview, read it to see my answers.
