About Michael Blanchard

Photography for me is therapeutic. I focus on Martha’s Vineyard, which I consider my home, in addition to a place of residence. The first day I set foot on the Island I felt a spiritual connection and didn’t understand why – but later would learn. After a catastrophic collapse in 2010, my family, the Island, and photography have been the keys to my recovery and sobriety of over eight years.

Sobriety cannot continue without a focus on giving back to others and maintaining a sense of community. It is difficult to donate money, time and resources with the daily difficulties we all face. But I insist on donating a portion of my work to help Island service organizations that do the good work of helping others. I recently completed my Masters Degree in Psychology and work with the addiction community in helping patients find resources when they are ready to heal. The combination of counseling, photography, Martha’s Vineyard and a beautiful family, is as good as it gets! I hope you enjoy my work and truly feel the serenity and beauty the Island has to offer.
