1 Year Anniversary Metro Marche'

2010-01-16T08:10:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone..Jan 21st, anyone working or living downtown PHX, you should def check out the Metro Marche', located inside the Phoenix Convention Center North Building.
It is a very upscale "food court" with everything from Gourmet Pizza to great coffee to amazing Mexican!
The prices are awesome and on this day (Jan 21) they are giving away awesome specials at all the locations.
Oh yea...and all of the venues are LOCALLY owned...No chains here!
So come in and enjoy great food at great prices in a cool urban atmosphere.

I was very excited to be hired to shoot the locations for the City of Phoenix and Aramark Corp.

Here are some of those.

Tuesday!

2009-10-20T07:57:00.000-07:00

Excited to start the album for the wedding I shot in Italy this past summer. Antonio and Nicole were the most beautiful couple, and their extended families were so gracious. Julia and I stayed at Antonio's parents home for a few days. They were married in Brindisi which is on the Southeast side.
After the wedding, we rented a Mini Cooper and drove North to the Amalfi Coast...Belissimo!
Ended up in Florence, then back down to Rome where I have family. All in all, an amazing trip!

Note to self.....Italian drivers suck!
Note to Italy......Why waste tax money on road signs...No one looks at them or follows them.

TGIF!

Hey Blog...
Beautiful crisp fall day in Upstate today. Dog Lady got into CC cookies from counter...Ate 8 out of the 12. She only goes for the fresh baked, if you must know.

Signed a lease today for a very hip studio in Roch...1100 sq ft, hardwoods, lots of light.
Also met with a building owner for a potential Coffee House in an up and coming Arts/ Theater District downtown.

A lot going on.
More tomorrow...Feel like crap...Gotta cold

Hello and welcome to my blog!

2009-10-14T16:54:00.000-07:00

So, I am finally creating my very own Blog...Well, it's about time I guess. Perhaps I should now delete my Facebook and Twitter accounts so I can still golf once in a while.

I am a Photographer who most recently moved back to my Hometown of Rochester, NY to start a family with my new Wife Julia! and Baby girl on way.
Lot's of changes coming my way...I have been living and working in AZ the past 16 years, but something always was in the back of my head telling me that Rochester would be the place to have a family, grow old, live well.

We arrived in late August, so far so good. Fall is upon us and the smells and crisp air are all so new to me but at the same time are reminiscent of younger days...I love the fall.

We have a dog named Lady. She is Golden and loves Ellison Park. Nothing better than a dog running through green grass set against the fall colored trees, chasing down a ball. She kind of smiles on her way back.

Back to me...I shoot weddings for the most part. I love the excitement each new wedding brings. Each Bride is different, and they are all beautiful.
Not so much the Mom's, but that's a whole other blog!

So, again
