What a blast it was for Elizabeth and I to follow Ali and Justin around NYC where they live, play and work. The visual opportunities are endless. We walked 42nd Street, took the New York Subway to Columbus Circle, then explored Central Park. In the evening we took a New York Skyline shot from the rooftop of Ali and Justin’s condo building. After that we went to Times Square, found the ‘LOVE” sculpture by Robert Indiana that was alluded to in the book cover design for Eric Segal’s novel “Love Story, which starred Ali McGraw, who our Ali was named after. Also, their dog, Rocco, a Rhodesian Ridgeback found his way into several pictures. We are looking forward to photographing Ali and Justin’s 2011 wedding on St Lucia Island in the Caribbean. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the shoot, but you can also check-out a slide-show of the day with a visual surprise near the end. (Something new I’m experimenting with.)

This past week I photographed a fun event for The International Society of Event Specialists (ISES), Denver Chapter. It was hosted in the industrial space of Catering by Design, one of Denver’s premier catering companies. I’ve been a member of ISES the past four years and have valued the networking and educational benefits of being associated with Denver’s finest event planners, caterers, event venues, other photographers, entertainment companies, decor companies and other vendors involved in the event planning industry. For this particular event, attendees where put into teams who were challenged in a specific area of event planning by having to come up with a creative idea in a specific area like food preparation, table decor, mixology and a DJ song list. A panel of four distinguished judges selected the winners in each category. A fun time was had by all. Here are some of my pictures from the event. Also, if you would like to view a slideshow of the entire evening, click here.
