US Curling Championships
The 2012 US Curling Championships were held in Philadelphia, well Aston, Delaware County this year and you know I was on it. I love shooting sports that are outside the mainstream, and in these parts, Curling fits the bill. I’ll tell you what, it’s not as easy as you might think to make a great [...]
Philadelphia’s Paint Torch
This is Philadelphia’s newest public art piece, Paint Torch created by Claes Oldenburg. It stands 51 feet high and is on a 60 degree angle as if in the act of painting. It is outside the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts on Broad Street. I recently shot a wedding there and couldn’t resist making [...]
Playing Chess in Rittenhouse Square
Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia has got to be one of the best places to spend a few hours on a Spring afternoon. After finishing up a recent job I made my way over to the park with the sole purpose to practice some HDR shooting. I’m definitely a fan of a subtle, more natural approach [...]

It’s something that I have to admit is harder to do in the cold weather. This day was pretty chilly and [...]

Photographing a Wedding Proposal
I recently had the opportunity to photograph a wedding proposal. I shoot weddings all the time and I truly enjoy the opportunity to photograph a wedding. I love the challenge and emotion that all weddings have. But I have never been asked to photograph a proposal, and looking back, it was like shooting a micro [...]
Mean People Suck Grabshot
I really try to have at least a small point and shoot camera with me all the time and when I’m able to grab a quick shot like this it makes me happy. Now, if I didn’t have a camera with me and I saw this person handing out his little signs I would have [...]
Snowboarding at the Philadelphia Art Museum
After our second blizzard of the week, a bit of cabin fever began to set in. I heard there was a group of people snowboarding and sledding down the steps at the Philadelphia Art Museum. I loaded the kids in the car, packed a camera bag and we set out on an adventure. Turns out [...]
