Lovely and Amazing
I was asked to photograph the Young Women's Leadership Academy in East Harlem. It is an amazing school focusing on college prep and all the girls who graduated last year went to college! Shoot Digital generously donated all the lighting and grip equipment for the entire day! They even gave us these groovy Shoot Digital "Extra Love" t-shirts featuring Hector. Thanks Shoot Digital and thanks to Lori to scored a great donation! Congratulations to all the seniors - they did a great job and it was a fun day! Here are some "behind the scenes" shots. Hmm, maybe we should have our own reality TV show!!!

Meeting Alice Waters
So I photographed The Children's Aid Society's Next Generation Catering Company that catered World Hunger Year's launch of a Call to Action to end the food crisis. There were some amazing chefs and writers there including one of my favorites - Alice Waters - proprietor of Chez Panisse in my old hometown, Berkeley, CA.
Here's a quote from the CAS website: Teens at Children’s Aid’s new Next Generation Center in the Bronx are participating in nutrition and cooking classes and have begun a catering company that produces delicious and healthful foods for Children’s Aid events and those outside the organization. This entrepreneurial venture is teaching youth in a neighborhood with little access to fresh and healthful foods how to cook with the highest quality ingredients."

Home Sweet Home
I was trying out a Nikon PS lens and took some photos of our new house this morning - OK, the trash is out in front (shows we recycle!). Doesn't it look like Mr. Rodger's neighborhood? I love this kind of lens!!!!

Location, Location, Location
I shoot at some fabulous locations in New York City and beyond and I love photographing them. I thought I will feature different locations that I have worked in to show off the cool spaces and to give clients some great options for locations.
Our first feature is the Gabarron Carriage House on 38th Street between 3rd and Lexington. The location was built as a carriage house, converted to a residence and now is owned by the foundation and available for special events. It is perfect for a wedding of up to about 50 - 200 guests with a cocktail lounge up the spiral stairs. All catering needs to be brought in as well as music, decor, etc. Very cool. Call 212.573.6938 x 15 for information. Ask for Elisa!
