It's a great night for champagne and jazz

It's a beautiful Saturday evening in Chicago. Perfect for some champagne and jazz Enjoy!

A fantastic discovery!

Recently I had the great pleasure of touring Molise, Italy with Beatrice Ughi (the lady having the most fun in the front!). She is one of the partners of Gustiamo, an importer and distributor of fine Italian foods in NYC. Her knowledge, passion and love for life is absolutely magical.

Light Wrangling

A guy I was working with last week accused me of being a light wrangler. I'm kinda ok with that.

Just had the wonderful opportunity of shooting new work for Terzo Piano, Tony Mantuano's new restaurant in the Chicago Art Institute's Modern Wing (opening this Saturday, May 16). On a rainy day it's perfect; on a sunny day it's spectacular.

The perfect canvas.

Some outtakes from my trip to Italy.

Spectacular ox race that was one of the craziest events I've seen. The excitement, the pageantry...amazing!

I've been out of the loop a bit lately. But for good reason. I just got back from a FABULOUS trip to Molise, Italy (quite a hidden treasure) with Tony & Cathy Mantuano, and Beatrice Ughi, owner of Gustiamo. Met so many amazing people...more to come.
