Greetings Dear Friends.

It's been a hectic couple of weeks. ...not to mention COLD. How cold??

yeah...about THAT cold!!! No sense in complaining though. This is the North East and this is (was!!) February. Let's just hope that Old Man Winter is growing tired of our neck of the woods.

In random news: Here's a shot from the inside of the train station in Philadelphia:


I had a chance to catch up with my good friends Erich Camping & Gary Ventura last week. They say that you're only as good as the company that you keep. If that's true, then I guess that I'm doing pretty darn good. We talked for hours but only decided to break out the cameras in the last 20 minutes. Here's Erich outside of his studio in Anderson Alley:


and Erich again...handsome gent isn't he?


and Gary shooting Erich 'one light' style. I look forward to seeing you guys again next week for another installment of Tricky Lighting Tuesdays. good times.


I also had an opportunity to discuss life and the big picture over graham crackers with Mr. Hendrick Haymon recently.




And hang out with the incredibly talented, firey and lovely Miss Helen Bravenec. Helen is a recent graduate of Eastman School of Music and is auditioning for major orchestras all across the country. We took an afternoon to hang out at one of my favorite (indoor) spots in Rochester...The Village Gate.






kelli and I spent some time playing with light. She's patient and curious, not to mention enormously talented. Here are a few of my creations...




...and that just about sums it up.

I'll leave you now with a quote from the mega-awesome-amazing Annie Leibovitz:

"The difference in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with my subjects."

All the Best,
