Irina and Daniella left for a 5-week trip to Belarus to visit my Irina`s family. A week before they left, we did a little photoshoot at the Frick Park so I would have some recent photos of Daniella to look at. I cannot wait for them to come home – I really miss my girls. http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12660972&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1

Entertainment was provided by the always awesome Prime Time Party Crew from Alex Foster`s Soundtastic Enterprises. Micki Cohen put together amazing centerpieces!
Michelle and her family were absolutely wonderful – they made me feel like a family member, they weren`t shy of the camera and looked fabulous. Michelle and Ben, thank you for being so sweet and going along with my wacky ideas. 
The always fabulous Jodi Collela of Accents Unlimited kept the party going and the wonderful staff of Hilton Garden Inn at SouthPointe for making my job easy.
I met Eric about 6 or 7 months ago at Ken`s & Jessica`s Wedding – he was working with Steve Lebo of Party Time Productions. A few weeks later, he called me and asked me to meet with him and his fiancée about photographing their wedding. We met a few months later for an engagement session. I really loved working with Deanna and Eric – Deanna was the most organized bride I have ever met in my life. Neither Eric nor Deanna were stressed out about their wedding – they just had fun and truly enjoyed each other`s company. Thank you guys for making me a part of your special day. 
A little bit of GQ-style modeling… 
And my favorite part of any wedding… the first dance.

Last night I photographed a really awesome wedding. I was so excited that I wanted to post this photo before I event had a chance to go through everything I shot last night. Thanks to Jody Collela of Accents Unlimited everyone was on the dance floor giving me a ton of great photo opportunities. 
This Sunday I got to hang out with Jodi, Mark & their son Aidan at the Pittsburgh Children`s Museum. Jodi is a wonderful event planner – if you have a wedding coming up, check out her site (http://www.accentsunlimited.net). Aidan was a good sport – he tolerated me for a whole hour without crying. I think he might have even had some fun:) 
It’s two in the morning. I just got home from photographing an amazing Bat Mitzvah and I’m too exhausted to sleep. The Eisners are one of the most amazing families I have ever met – they are such nice, warm and fun people. I met them about three years ago when they hired me to photograph Carly`s Bat Mitzvah. Over the last few years I’ve seen them at a bunch of different events and did their family portraits on several occasions. Tonight I photographed Jamie’s Bat Mitzvah. In my 12 years as a photographer I have seen many great kids, but Jamie blew me away. She was incredibly confident and well-spoken during her Bat Mizvah service; I also found out that she is an amazing singer. So, as I said before, it’s two in the morning and I’m two exhausted to sleep. Therefore, being the geek that I am I decided to post a few photos of this wonderful family. Jamie & Carly
