The Black Keys @ The Quicken Loans Arena

March 24th, 2012

The Black Keys played one of their old hometowns this week on March 20 at The Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland.  It’s great to see a successful Akron, OH band coming back to record local crowds!  It’s also a cool full circle experience for me because I also photographed the band on December 31, 2003 for Cleveland Magazine as a band to watch in their April 2004 Music Issue.  Here are some of my shots from this week’s show!

New Year… New Book!

January 15th, 2012

Happy New Year! I wish everyone the very best for 2012!

To kick off the new year right, I am excited to share my newest book.

This book features highlights from my two-week trip to Greece including the mainland and some island touring. It was an enchanting country and I’m excited to share my favorite photographs with you.

Below is a 41-page preview of the 116-page book full of historical and scenic imagery.  These are by no means your typical vacation pics.  Enjoy the preview (view full screen for the best experience) and click on the link to purchase the book or get more information.

I have made this available in soft cover, hard cover, image wrap, and as a downloadable eBook for iPad/iPhone.

I’d love your feedback and hope you enjoy it!  Thanks so much!! :)
 

Photo Samples: Weekend in Mexico

November 18th, 2011

A mini-vacation to Cancun could not have come at a better time!  Before the craziness of the holiday season and after a busy summer and fall; this was the perfect break!  Cancun was as beautiful as always, even at 5am when the sun decided to rise.  Here are a few shots from my recent trip. I attempt to do this gorgeous coastal area justice. :)

 

Photo Samples: Lakeside, Ohio

September 18th, 2011

For those of you unfamiliar with Lakeside, on the Lake Erie shores of Ohio, you may not know how truly relaxing and beautiful this vacation spot can be. It’s one of only a few places I have ever been that you can literally unwind and start relaxing the minute you get there.

This summer I took my little diana to get some fun shots.  Here are some pics I brought back with me!

These photographs were inspired by a very special family.  I have been fortunate to go several times with the Clevenger family, who’ve shared experiences with me that I can add to the list of things I love about summer and Ohio.

I hope everyone had a great summer! Enjoy the rest of the season!

On June 24, 2011, the Cleveland Cavaliers welcomed their new draft picks, Kyrie Irving and Tristan Thompson, at a press conference at the Cleveland Clinic Courts.  I was ecstatic to be on site covering the press conference as well as the basketball court dedication at the Cleveland Clinic that followed.  Here are just a few pictures from that day and these fun events!
