Modern Photographer
Meg is an animal lover, you'd have to be to work at a zoo. I too am an animal lover. So She and I recently adopted two cats from the Oakland, NJ animal shelter. They are great, both about a year old and they look a lot alike, although not litter mates. I strongly suggest going and adopting some animals yourself if you are able.

I have had this AWESOME idea. It's a personal project that I will be starting relatively soon. I've already laid some groundwork and have contacted some of the necessary people. I don't want to divulge too much about it, but I will say this: it involves some very interesting and unique people, it will also take place mostly in Connecticut. I'm excited. This is just a personal project, but who knows what may come of it. Stay tuned. This may take a month or so to get the ball rolling, maybe more, but once I start this, there are going to be some amazing images.
Meg's college room mate Kate came down for a visit, she had never been to the Statue of Liberty or Ellis Island, nor had Meg which is surprising since she is a northern NJ native. So, that's exactly what we did, after that endeavor, we walked around Manhattan for a couple hours then headed back to Jersey to eat some Cheesecake Factory in Hackensack. Not to worry though, we did stop for pizza and beer in Little Italy. Here are a few photos from the day
February 27th is my mom's birthday, so this year, my fiance and I drove the 4 and 1/2 hours up to Sterling, NY to visit and spend the weekend with my parents. On one of those days I drove around with Meg to show her my hometown. Now, you have to understand that Sterling and Fair Haven, NY are very boring places, especially in the winter. We went to the state park, which is a beach on Lake Ontario in the summer, but is deserted in the winter and onto Red Creek and Wolcott, two of the most depressing towns on the planet. Turns out, all these places are photographic gold mines. Enjoy!
So, Friday, February 20th, was my friend Owen's 26th birthday. Owen and I have been friends since we were 5 years old, we went to kindergarten together. Through a strange set of events, we now live surprisingly close to each other. I met a girl from Midland Park, NJ and moved to the area to be with her. He met a girl from Fair Lawn, NJ and moved to the area to be with her. So we grew up 5 minutes from each other and now live about 20 minutes from each other, but about 4 hours from our home town.
Anyway, we went to Bowler City in Hackensack. Owen had some friends there that I didn't know, but we had a great time, had a couple drinks, and I schooled some people on bowling. I even broke 100 once!
