We have a winner!

I am so excited to announce that the Philadelphia Wedding Project has chosen a winner! Congratulations to Caitlin and Rodney! They have an extraordinary story to tell. Both in the Army, they first met in March 2006, having both recently arrived at their unit, the 9th Engineer Battalion.

To read more you have to go to the PWP blog: http://www.philadelphiaweddingproject.com

I am excited to stretch my photo storytelling skills to really dig into the core of their story and tell it from many perspectives. It will be really interesting to have 5 other fabulous photographers and some of my dearest friends all working together. With so many photographers, we can each take a different aspect of the day, follow other important people in this story to give it a completeness that we have never done before at a wedding.

Keep an eye on the PWP because the story has just begun….

Handcrafted Wedding Albums: Leather Craftsmen

Tuesday: Jenn Childress, Joy Moody, Geoff Horowitz, aka Leapfrog Photography, Pete Malone aka First Floor Films, Ryan Estes and I, (Sofia Negron), drove up to Long Island to take a tour of our album company, Leather Craftsman. Leather Craftsman is an amazing album company; producing some of the top wedding and portrait albums in the country world. They are truly handcrafted works of art. It was so cool to see all the different workstations, machines, presses, materials and artisans creating these books. Each book is probably created by 15 different people. I was just amazed at the quality and workmanship of these albums.

A huge thank you goes to Greg DeTullio, our representative, who took us on this tour. Him and his family are multi-generational bookbinders.

HD Video of the entire tour will be available soon. I shot it all with the new canon 5D MKII.

After our little trek, we piled into Jenn’s SUV and celebrated St. Paddy’s Day with green beer and Guiness. Nothing like getting 6 friends, who just happen to be awesome photographers, in one place together for good times and lots of laughs.

Chestnut Hill TV and SLife Productions

If you haven’t heard of SLife productions you need to check them out.
I discovered them when they hired me to do maternity photos and photos of the entire family during the holidays. Jason is the owner and producer and he has done some really great documentary work on the Philly Jazz scene.

Jason and Slife just started a weekly tv show about Chestnut Hill and the community. The first two episodes are awesome; featuring Drake’s Catering. They have a gorgeous garden to eat lunch in and tasty food to eat there or take home. You have to check them out.

The other episode talks about our very own “Big Dig”. If you have made it out here, you may have noticed a ton of construction on Germantown Ave between Mt. Airy and Chestnut Hill. The show does a great job of talking about the impact on the surrounding businesses. This construction shows how important it is to have word of mouth and loyal customers. The loyal customers are helping these businesses stay afloat by going often and really pushing friends and family to do the same.

So make sure you remember your favorite businesses and support them. Tell your friends, tell your family, tell strangers. Tell anyone who will listen.
