Thanksgiving 2008

Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! I did to, even though Nicole is in Boca Raton-we missed her. But, celebrated with my family and grateful we were all together. As far as Nicki, I'll be flying down on the 18th and we'll drive home. She'll be done with her externship and will be graduating from the Culinary Institute in December.


This is me and my mom. She passed away in December 2008. Miss her every day.

Met Kaylee and Brian at Schenley Park last Sunday for their engagement photos. Was really cold but clear and we got a lot of great shots! Was a lot of fun-here are a few of my favs:

PITTSBURGH Magazine

Rebecca and John's wedding images will be feartured in Pgh Mag in their bridal issue in December. They had a Jimmy Buffet themed wedding at the Sheraton Station Square. Her mom actually designed and created her gown, the flower girls dresses and all the table linens. The tables were amazing with palm trees and coconuts. They also had a cupcake cake! Read all about their wedding in the magazine- these are a few pages from their book.

PETS

Our home is animal friendly- we have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 birds, 2 rabbits and a horse.

I have 4 parakeets at my office. There is a very good chance that when you'll hear them singing in the background. Everyone asks me if I have birds! They can get very loud, I admit. But I do like them!

This is in memory of our beloved little dog Kipper who passed away June 27. He was with us for 10 years and was Dani's "little old man, her bubby". We miss you terribly.

WHIRL Magazine

Whirl Magazine is featuring one of our couples, Melissa and Bill in their January edition!

Their engagement session was in Pgh and they had 2 wedding ceremonies. One was in Weirton and the other in Oglebay, WV. Here are a few favs-

Boca Raton

Went to visit Nicole at the Boca Resorts in Florida. She'll be there for 4 months on her externship with Pgh Culinary. She's in Pastry.


It was beautiful, windy and hot. We went to the Pier at Ft Lauderdale by the Sea and to the Everglades.




Actually saw an alligator in the water.






Me and Nicole

Spent a day in Miami and South Beach.


I miss her!

Alisa and Stephen

This weekend we will be at Tara for Alisa and Stephen's wedding. We did their engagement photos in Central Park. Here is their webshow from that session. They were a lot of fun and I know their wedding will be awesome!

Tara is such a unique palce for a wedding and it suited Alisa and Stephen perfectly! You can view their show below:

Anna and Joe's Wedding in NYC

Were in NYC in December photographing Anna and Joe's wedding. We were on the Long Island Pier and it was bitter cold. But the girls bravely tossed off their coats and we had a great time on the Long Island Pier. Ater their reception we continued on with photos in and around the city, including Grand Central Staion, Museum, taxi and fav hot dog stand! Ended the evening at Joe's apartment on Long Island with the city in the background. Was a lot of fun!

Trip to LA

Nicole and I had a wonderful trip to LA in January. Was a nice break from the routine. The glass bldg with the palm trees is one of my favorite images-feel it captures the LA feel. I loved Venice, such a unique place to live! We also toured Warner Bros Studio, saw the La Brea Tar Pits, rode on horseback in the Hollywood Hills, went to the Santa Monica Pier, Rodeo Dr and checked out Kat Von Do's High Voltage Tattoo.We stayed right on Hollywood Blvd, and managed to find out way around w/o any problems. A great time!
