Welcome

Welcome to my photoblog. I try to keep it updated daily with a new photo from either my personal or professional life. It is not intended to be taken as my professional portfolio (please visit the main website for that), but instead it is more of an informal and fun way for me to share some of my personality and creativity with you. Many of the photos on my blog are available for purchase as fine art prints, please visit the main website and/or contact me if you are interested. Enjoy!

Wedding - Eleanor & Tony

  
Eleanor and Tony had a wonderful wedding ceremony at the chapel in Villa Marconi. The reception was also held down the hallway at the Marconi Center in their main hall. We were able to get some great family and friends photos in the main entrance way to the Marconi Center which was covered in glass windows from floor to ceiling.
