Madeline’s First Christmas
A few months, back my dear friends Nick and Lisa gave birth to Madeline—quite possibly one of the cutest babies in the world. I got the chance to take her Christmas photos a week ago and the lens just doesn't do her justice. [gallery link="file" order="DESC"...
Ginny & Aaron {Il Villaggio Wedding}
I can completely understand why some people might be frightened at the offer to photograph a funeral-themed wedding. Me, I get giddy. A few months back, Ginny e-mailed me explaining that she was having her wedding on Halloween and was going to have the place done up...
Why Buying Alien Bees Makes Sense for Wedding Photographers
Dave Hobby has a fantastic, in-depth report on his blog detailing his time spent shooting with Alien Bees brand strobes. While not as gushing and glowing as most AB fan boy reports, the review hammers home an important point—buy what you need, not what you lust. As an...
Photographing President Clinton {Crisis Awards at Waldorf Astoria}
I'd be lying if I said I don't get nervous before photo shoots, but after years of photographing rock stars, famous artists, and business big wigs I tend to put on a happy face and just do my job as best as I can no matter how prestigious the subject is. That was...
Nicole & Jared {Storm King Engagement Photos}
One of the hardest thing about engagement portraits is trying to find an interesting place to do them. Sure I could drop a seamless in my apartment and fire off a few shots of the cuddly couple, but that's no fun. I spent a month working with Nicole to figure out the...
Moshulu Wedding Photos {Nichole & Richard}
A few weeks back, I photographed my first wedding on a boat and had a blast the whole evening. Congratulations to Nichole and Richard on their nuptials at the Moshulu in Philadelphia, a century old sailing vessel that was permanently docked in Philly a few decades...
Murderous Housewives
A few weeks back, my good friend Nicole asked me to shoot some photos of her for a Mad Men contest that AMC was running to promote the new season. At the time, I had never seen an episode, but I was aware that the series took place in the early '60s and everyone on...
What’s In My Bag?: 2009 Edition
Do a search on Flickr for "What's in your bag?" and you'll stumble upon thousands of photos of meticulously arranged junk. Looks like there's a movement to photograph emptied out bags to show what people drag around with them all day. After every shoot, I empty out my...
Nichole & Richard {Philadelphia Engagement Photos}
I've been to Philadelphia many, many times, but I never really played the tourist and photographed the city as a strange. So, needless to say, I was pretty excited when Nichole asked me to take engagement photos of her and her fiance Richard at various spots around...
Lori & Edward {Kings Grand Open Space Wedding Photos}
On August 2, I had the pleasure of photographing the nuptials of Lori and Edward. This might be the rainiest Summer in New Jersey history and that Sunday morning was no different. I hydroplaned all the way down the Jersey Turnpike to Marlton praying that the traffic...
Zen Gardens and Pharma Companies
The worst part about doing magazine shoots is that I usually can't write about the experience until after the issues comes out. About a month ago, I had the pleasure of visiting Daiichi Sankyo's new training facility in Parsippany and photograph its Senior Director of...
Photography is Not a Crime
Just because a person is standing on a crowded city street taking photographs doesn't mean that he or she is a terrorist. But that doesn't stop police from hassling photographers daily in some of the biggest cities. Boing Boing just posted an interesting link to a new...
