A day at Bosco’s Bridal Fair

filmisdead — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 22:40:55 +0000

Yesterday January 11th was a long day. After few hours of sleep my wife Lindsay, Mike Ciarleglio and I set out in the early morning on the icy roads for Stamford, CT where we were vendors at Bosco’s Bridal fair. We took a different approach with our booth, as there were six or seven other photographers scheduled to be there we chose a location that would filter the visitors to us near the end of their walk through the show. We did this because I wanted them to see the other photographers first and I wanted them to see how we were different. We set up a backdrop and some flashes so that we could offer people free engagement photos or just a free picture with who ever they were with. We took their information and gave them ours. Tonight I will upload all their photos to my website and send out a mass email letting them know their pictures are up. If nothing else this will get them to my website and let them see more of what my work looks like than what they were able to see at the show.
Although the weather may have hurt the turnout at the show yesterday if just one bride hires us it will get us one step closer to being the most sought after wedding photographers in CT.
I’m aware that our style is not for every bride but the ones looking for an unobtrusive and artistic photographer to shoot their wedding and produce beautiful story telling photos then it’s all a matter of time and word of mouth till we get the recognition we deserve.
At this point with all the weddings we’ve done, there has not been one single bride, groom or family member that was disappointed in us and for that matter it’s a normal thing for the bride and the bride & grooms parents to hug and kiss me at the end of the night. It only takes a matter of minutes after we arrive on a wedding day for everyone around to forget that we were strangers.
If not for our ability to photograph a wedding above and beyond what our clients expect you will love us for our professionalism, good nature and ease to be around.

My 29th Birthday Party

filmisdead — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 17:45:41 +0000

December Tenth, Two Thousand and Eight was the day I turned 29. I can always count on my friends from Massachusetts to throw me a party.
Now that two of my friends have kids the parties are a bit different. My friends have the coolest kids, John and Melissa with their little Anja and Andy and Heather with their Spitfire Logan. Next year John and Melissa will have another little mush and Burger and Leigh will be popping out their first bun which they are calling Quinn.
You can expect that my wife Lindsay and I will stick with our furry kids for quite some time.
Here are a few photos from my party and you can see the rest at Mattys Birthday Gallery

Burger was so proud of his Ham that he won at a Turkey Shoot the Day before

My house is a Zoo… Literally.

filmisdead — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 06:12:54 +0000

Six cats a dog, two fish tanks and now a hedgehog.
I was a little bummed at first because I didn’t want any more animals but this thing is really cute, and it’s really nice.
There isn’t really much to say that the pictures can’t so enjoy.

Thanksgiving day photo shoot

The one down side of being a professional photographer is you are always expected to take pictures at every family event. Starts off as a hassle but always ends up being fun. Take a bunch of kids under ten and add two over twenty (my wife and I) and put them on a trampoline and this is what you get.

A sample of my latest Digital ART

filmisdead — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 07:42:59 +0000

Photography is an ART. What happens once the photo is on your computer can be Art, or it can be a train wreck. I was look through some local CT photographers websites today and I find myself board to death looking at their portfolios. I’m not saying I am the absolute best photographer, in fact up until a few days ago I wasn’t even sure I was any good. Anyway what some, most, most people do to their photos can be easily described as dull or in some cases, awful.
Black and white, fine. But use it for a reason.
The things technology has made possible and most still play it safe. If you look at most of the close-up portraits on my website you will see beautiful girls with perfect skin. Trust me, even world famous runway models have bad skin close up. These are the things every professional photographer should be able to do.

Offbeat Bride and Indie Bride

filmisdead — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 06:56:09 +0000

I tried to log on to the offbeatbride.com and indiebride.com today just to check out things so I have some reference on whats going on in the left of center wedding world. It’s good to have some different things to offer that off beat bride but these websites are hard as hell to get on to.
Even with out getting a look at what these sites have to offer I will still bring an unique, contemporary and artistic style to wedding photography.

Connecticuts Famous Wedding and Fashion Photographer

filmisdead — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 23:53:10 +0000

Word of mouth has started kicking in. I’ve been contacted by a number of people from recommendations received on “The Off-Beat Bride”
This is what I’ve been waiting for. I knew my style and photos could speak for themselves but I just need people to see them.
In recent discussions with the head of Connecticut’s largest bridal fair “Bosco Bridal Fair” my website and photographs were complimented and highly regarded by a man who has been in this industry for many years. That made me feel awesome!
I’m also continuing my work with Salon Chiala. In October Salon Chiala was in charge of hair (on behalf of REDKEN) for Scott Corridan”s runway show featuring his White Chocolate Label. I was invited to photograph behind the scenes and the fashion show. I have just finished adding those pictures to my website, View The Full White Chocolate Gallery Here. This I suggest you check out. Between the photography and the digital editing of these photos I have never been more impressed with myself. This is really not like me to toot my own horn but I’m just really happy with these photos. For all of you who have never met any world famous runway models I have to tell you, although they are stunningly beautiful they are by no means perfect. If I didn’t work my magic you would see how their skin is just like everyone elses. But again this is some of my best work yet.
