Queen Latifah portrait

admin — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 19:58:22 +0000

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the new issue of Inside Jersey magazine. A photograph of Queen Latifah that I took last year was featured in an article about the New Jersey native.

Usually celebrity portraits require lots of advance setup and coordination with publicity agents.
This photograph was the result of a wonderful day riding on a luxury bus with Queen Latifah as she educated people about steps they can take to stop a home foreclosure.

Being the only photographer on the bus allowed for some nice candid moments. It’s great to see the photo published again.

Weddings are always special.
They are even more special when you are good friends with both the bride and groom. That was the case for Carly and Seth’s wedding yesterday.

The day started at the gorgeous Hyatt Regency in Jersey City, then on to Temple Beth-El (thanks, Rabbi Brickman) and finally the reception at O’Connell’s on Montgomery Street.

You can see from the photos below that this is a fun loving group.

Carly and Seth, thanks for letting me be a part of the first of many wonderful days together.

Recently the very talented folks at Design for Social Good asked me to produce a video that highlighted the amazing work of ACE, a New York group that empowers the homeless.
The Design for Social Good team was hired to create new branding, logo and website for ACE.
Video was a perfect way to tell the story of this unique organization and the people they have helped.
