    Plated Landscapes – Dinner in the City

    Friday, August 27th, 2010

    Last month Lori and I got a night away and went to eat with the fine folks from Spice of Life Caterers at one of their Plated Landscape events.  The food was fantastic.  The hosts were fantastic.  Ben, Brandon, Jess and the crew ooze cool.  I think they cook with it like it’s umami.

    Last night I got to go behind the scenes and get all photojournalistic while covering their Urban Landscape dinner that was held at the Cleveland Botanical Garden’s Urban Farm on East 66th Street.  If you don’t think you can farm on your little backyard in the ‘burbs, you should stop down and check out what these guys are doing in the middle of Cleveland!  A really nice garden that provided a lot of the vegetables we ate last night.

    Tomorrow morning I’ll be getting up early to head down and volunteer with United Cerebral Palsy of Cleveland.  This will be the second year that I’ll be shooting the event for them.   I have to say, it’s really amazing to see how UCP helps these families and to see what these young children and their parents, families, and friends are capable of achieving!
    Here is a video that was put together by UCP about the event.   If you’re looking for something to do tomorrow morning, I’d say you should head downtown and cheer these families, and all the participants on!

    Progressive Field

    Had a chance to score some sweet seats to last nights Tribe game. Sat in the third row on the first base line. Really great place to shoot from. Only downside was all the Boston fans in the same section! :p

    Carli + Kevin: Engaged!

    Sunday, May 30th, 2010

    I had to get these photos posted immediately before Lebron James left and they became dated! :)

    Actually, I had to get these posted quickly because I love them all!

    Last night I met Carli and Kevin in Downtown Cleveland and we just sort of wandered around, stopping to take pictures whenever it looked right.  They were great sports and put up with me dragging to them to a bunch of different locations.   When we talked on the phone, Carli told me that Kevin wasn’t all that into photos, but I have no idea what she’s talking about.   He could be a model.  Heck, they both could be models!

    Andrea + Keith

    Friday, March 26th, 2010

    Last weekend I had the honor of shooting the wedding of Andrea and Keith along with my good friend Andrea from Photographs by Andrea.

    We met up with the couple on Friday night to catch a rehearsal of their ceremony at Windows on the River and then followed them over to the Corner Alley to finish off the night with some good times and bowling.   I have to say, both places were fantastic hosts. 

     

    The whole wedding party had a great time and they were a blast to hang out with all weekend long.

    I wish Andrea and Keith all the best in their future together.  They are off to a fantastic start!
