I’m sure many people out there have been devastated lately by the fact that they could not leave comments on this blog… but alas comments have returned. So please go ahead and write your little hearts away!

My photo was used as the feature image in the Gaurdian UK Travel section over the weekend. Here is the digital version, but I hope to get my hands on the newspaper soon

Congrats to my good friends Mike & Maggie Pearlman on the the birth of their first child, Odessa Rae Pearlman. These were shot of little Odessa over a month ago but since I have been all over the place I am only getting a chance to put them up now. I was also happy to get the chance to do my first child portraits because my own niece is due in about four months!!!!

While I was in Italy, I had the opportunity to head to my beloved Venice for a day. I got to check out the island of Burano which is a place that has eluded me all of the times that I have visited Venice. This time however was a different story….. finally saw it and I must say it may now be a favorite of mine.

Also, I lugged my water housing all the way to Italy for a little experiment. I brought it along so that I could use it in the canals of venice, I have never seen any water photography from there and below were my first attempts. I may add some more soon…

And a bit abstract….

Sorry to anyone who has been checking this blog for updates of late…. I have just returned home from a great trip to Italy. I was there to shoot my good friends wedding, the newly weds Signore Enrico & Silvia Mazzari. Congrats to them!!!

Before the wedding we had the opportunity to do a little engagement session before the wedding. We had an awesome time strolling through the back streets of Padova, you can’t beat Italy in the Spring.

What’s a photo in Italy without a Vespa?

Pictures from their wedding to follow soon

I have been working on a top secret project of late…… well not exactly top secret. But one of the key elements of this project arrived the other day in the mail and below are some test runs that I did recently.

Couch Chiller….

Beware of who watches you at nigh???

Bet you didn’t know there was creatures in your backyard, did you?

Infinity.

finally…. if you were wondering what happens when you drink to much stale beer, this it it. A vicious urination from Chris

Coming up on a little anniversary and I have not completed my documentary website, so I am now reviewing some of the images and am gonna get this baby done. The good thing is that now when I go back and review the images that I took last year I really am viewing them through a different set of eyes.

So everyone keep your eyes peeled for some big announcements soon…..I promise. To keep you going before those come here is a shot of a farmer from Agra which I was fortunate enough to have a conversation with along with his son. He wasn’t able to tell us his age because he wasn’t quite sure. He didn’t know the day of his birth and was only aware that he was born somewhere in the 1930’s… he thinks?
