Groupon Fun


A few weeks ago we had the good fortune to work with Groupon...which everyone knows is one of the most highly sought after marketing machines for growing companies, and very tough to get the attention of, since everyone is trying to work with them  (That was an awful display if grammatical ineptitude).  We ran a very successful campaign and are very pleased with the results, having already completed several of the photo shoots that came about as a result of the Groupon offer.  In the coming months, we hope to run the campaign again, or one similar through Groupon.  In the mean time, we'd like to extend the offer to all of our clients and friends.  For a limited time, as we approach the holidays, take advantage of our special offer of a One-Hour Photo Session which includes an 8x10 print, a 5x7 print, and 8 wallet prints for $69.  Take advantage of the Fall folliage, take some family portraits for the holidays...whatever you want.  We've had people use these shoots for families, senior photos, and even an engagement shoot.  Get creative.  And have some fun!  
Call us on 508-667-0602 to schedule!  Book soon....the schedule is limited!

Here's a few shots from one of the shoots....enjoy!

Mustang Rally


I was fortunate this summer to spend a little time at one of my favorite venues, Watkins Glen Raceway. Dan Bremer, who is the head of IronhorseAutoSport.com was kind enough to organize a Mustang Rally last month and invited me (and my Mustang) to join them. Over the course of two days we lapped the track at Watkins Glen and then participated in the Sauerkraut Festival in Phelps, NY., first with an autoshow featuring nearly a hundred Mustangs spanning the last 46 years, and then snarling up the parade route, leaving patches of rubber and scorched asphalt every few yards.

The high point for me was the hot laps at The Glen. I was in the middle of the pack of about 35 Mustangs entering the track along the middle of the 1/2 mile long front straight (pulling across into the pits or so I thought), when suddenly the whole field made a hard left turn and ripped down the front straight entering Turn One at nearly 100mph. I still had the top down and my camera gear across the back seats. I yelled to Kristen, hold everything down! We're going!! 

There we were, thirty-five Mustangs boasting between 300 and 550hp, flying around the track in a tight pack at (in some cases) up to 140mph. I was shocked! I figured we'd be allowed to lap a couple of cars at a time, nowhere near each other. This was fantastic. I had to bail into the pits after two laps, though, so I could actually photograph some of the other cars. What a blast!
