Inspired to Tri

Friday, March 11th, 2011

Every August I get up early and head downtown to my little part in helping out United Cerebral Palsy – Cleveland by taking pictures they can use to promote their involvement with the Cleveland Triathlon.

Watching these families and their children, the support they get from loved ones and friends, is really inspiring. This is the promo slide show for this years race. Take a few seconds to watch it.

The first 30 seconds are so is all my work and then there are several other shots through the rest of the slides.

I’ve got some other work with UCP that’s going to drop soon as well. I’ll be sure to share it as soon as it’s available!

Plated Landscapes – Mackenzie Creamery

Friday, November 12th, 2010

I got an email from the crew over at Spice of Life Catering asking me if I’d like to bring Lori out for dinner and shoot their last Plated Landscapes event of the season. They had me at dinner.

The event was back at the Mackenzie Creamery in Hiram. Jean makes fantastic goat cheese and just won a first place award for one of her creations.

Hard to believe, it was just about a year ago that I met Jess, Ben and Brandon at Mackenzie Creamery to shoot with them for the first time. If you click over to their website, most of the images are from that dinner and were taken by yours truly!

Greeted by a happy chicken. Happy because she wasn’t on the menu!

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.
