  • Favorite Philly Moments…

    Thanks Craig and Andy for a great visit.

  • The Whole Rollei Story…

    This is a continuation of Gina and Keith’s wedding (to see all of the series click here). Since Gina had hired a photographer to document the day (so I could be a guest for the night) so I made an executive hurried decision… no digital only the Rollei. I wanted to enjoy the night and…

  • Getting ready for the (United Nations) Chapel on the 34th floor of the Millenium Hotel in Manhattan… of course…

    This is just the second installment… of Gina and Keith get married… there will be more to come. I did fill a few digital cards of these same moments, but they will not make the blog, this time the Rollei wins, hands down.

  • Just one… and then I really need to get some work done…

    I have all my film, from my trip across the East, in a nice neat stack, just waiting for me to scan them and show them to the world on my blog, but the problem is I have 10,000 other things to do first… so I am saving my film as a reward for myself……

  • Bathing Beauties…

    Putt-putt at Ocean Isle Beach in North Carolina with my whole family and the same decrepit safari animals that are older than I am. These are my cousins…. they were featured here last year as well, and now it seems photographing them with our favorite fiberglass animals has become as much a tradition as anything…

  • Another Kelly-ism…

    This is only the surface of my latest Kelly, Messy Monkey Founder, photo shoot (you may remember her in the bathtub with eggs)… there is so much more to come from this shoot, but unfortunately we photographed right before I flew away on my current Eastern Adventure… so I haven’t had time to scan the…

  • project HERE… with John Crowley

    This is John Crowley, he is the definition of community in Petaluma. About 7 years ago, this Irishman decided he was tired of sitting alone in his Petaluma home, watching TV on Saturday nights… and he realized he was probably not the only one who felt that way, so he decided to make a change.…

  • Taking Time to Play….

    As a “professional” photographer, it can get overwhelming photographing all the time… and sometimes the last thing you want to do is take photos during your free time because taking photos means editing photos and that means more time in front of the computer… but playing with your camera is the best way to keep…

  • The Rollei’s first Pregnancy Photo Shoot

    Just catching up on editing before I go away again… and so I wanted to add some Rollei shots from my photo shoot with Tauni and Dan a couple of weeks ago. They’re just so cute.
