Work Hard, Play Hard

The Work Hard, Play Hard video for Wiz Khalifa was shot at a few locations in Pittsburgh and I had the pleasure of being set photographer.  A lot the crew was on the Black and Yellow set as well so it was great working together again. This was such a fun video to be a part of. Congrats to everyone for their hard work!!! Ill be posting behind the scenes photos later in the week as well :) TGOD.

Mr. and Mrs. Baleno

I had so much fun with Lori and Char on their wedding day!!  There were so many little touches that added great color to day. Lori's something blue was a pair of Badgley Mischka heels (which I loved photographing,) and Char's only request was that his boutiner was orange like he had seen at a previous wedding because he had liked how it looked!  I love how these things stand out in some of the photos. 

I do have to say, this was my favorite church to shoot in so far. The stain glass windows were incredible and added so much color and character to the setting during the ceremony. We were also lucky to have a beautiful day for outdoor photos before the reception began. This was my first time shooting on Mount Washington and I loved it. Congrats Lori and Char! Here is the sneak peak of the new Mr. and Mrs. Baleno.

Welcome to the New Year/Winter Classic

Although it's a few days late... Happy New Year :) I hope that 2011 is everyones best year yet!  I was fortunate enough to spend the first day of the new year at Heinz Field for the Winter Classic.  I went with Bill and Andrew (as seen below in the picture) and we had a fantastic time.  It didn't get too chilly until the hard rain during the third period.  This first picture is one of my favorites, all the little 8's vs 87's. .. then you've got the big dogs on the back rink.  I want to shout out to Jack Megaw, even though he has a Caps beanie on in our photo.  It was great to see friends I haven't seen in a while.  Even though we didn't win, it was a great experience and the atmosphere was unbelievable.
