REV3 Triathlon Assignment

By far the coolest photo assignment I have ever had!!!  This past weekend I was hired by Cannondale bikes to photograph the Revolution 3 Triathalon in Middlebury, CT.  The half Ironman (1.2mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 mile run) had about 30 Professional athletes and almost a thousand amateurs.  I focused mainly on Mirinda Carfrae, Cannondale's pro rider, from brisbane, Australia.  She was up against a few Olympic triathletes and former Hawaii Ironman champs (Joanna Zeiger USA and Natascha Badmann SWI).  I knew she was an amazing triathlete but I never expected her to finish first!!!  What an amazing day!  
listen how crazy this weekend was.... I photographed for shore publishing on sat. from 930 to 1230, shot a wedding with Steve Depino (awesome photographer) from 2pm until midnight.  I got home around 1230am and spent the next hour clearing memory cards and recharging batteries.  I fell asleep in my chair around 130am and woke up at 330am for the tri shoot.  Arrived at 5am, The athletes came soon after to prepare and warm-up.  They hit the water for the swim at 7am.  I was cruising around in the back of a pick up truck following the bikers from about 830-10, and captured Miranda's finish at around 1130.  One of the best photography weekends I've had!
Check out the Cannondale website www.cannondale.com , two of my images of Mirinda are on the homepage!
I'll be shooting for Cannondale again tonight... they will be testing out a new bike at a local race.  I'll be photographing from the back of a motorcycle... wish me luck.

Allison and Dave Wedding

Happy Memorial Day!
I had a wonderful weekend and It all started with a much anticipated wedding on Friday afternoon and night.  The wedding was amazing...it could not have been better!  Allison and Dave were so great to photograph, the weather was perfect, I had Tony Spinelli helping me out, and everyone was having a blast.  I've got hundreds of pictures that I can't wait to compile into a slideshow and into an album for Allison and Dave.  Here are just a few of the images:
Stay tuned for a wedding slideshow on the website.  I hope to have the wedding images and a slideshow on the website within a week or two.

BLOCK ISLAND PHOTOGRAPHY

Here are a few images from my trip out to Block Island.  I spent a few hours hanging my work up at the KORU ECO SPA and spent the rest of my time exploring and photographing the island.  Living the life of a landscape photographer for two days was pretty sweet....  Waking up before sunrise, hanging art work, napping on the beach during the bright hours, and then racing around capturing golden sunset light.... Not a bad lifestyle.
Let me know what you think... give a bro-tographer some feedback!

Little League Photography

I had a great time photographing the AAA Minors Yankees vs Athletics on Saturday before I went to Erin's Wedding.  
Here are some examples of the Little league Photography.
I'm heading out to Block Island to hang my photography at a gallery/spa out there.  If you visit Block Island this summer.... be sure to visit the KORU ECO SPA www.koruecospa.com .  The spa is right next to the main hotel when you get off the ferry.
