September Photo Chat Get-Together
It’s hard to believe summer is over and fall is here in Bucks County. Time to schedule a Photo Chat Get-Together before leaves really start to drop.
That means it’s time to get together again to discuss our photographs with the ever-expanding group!
Yes, how about joining us and getting together to chat about our photographs and the stories behind them. What was your intent in making the photograph, what were you trying to say, was it a success? If you made your print, were there any particular challenges involved?
This is not a discussion focused on gear — the idea is to share insights, get constructive feedback, learn a few things, relax and make new friends!
Well, if this sounds interesting and fun, how about joining me in beautiful downtown Doylestown, PA, in the heart of scenic Bucks County, and we will get together over a cup of coffee.
Photographers of all levels are welcome.
Bring only a couple of prints to discuss. Obviously the prints should be Black and White and should be film based!
The get together will be on Sunday, September 30th, 10:00-11:30am at the Zen Den coffee shop, located at their new address on 41 E State St, Doylestown, PA 18901.
Email or call me at 215-348-9171 if you are interested. First come first serve!
I look forward to meeting you!

A New Show
My one-person show opened at the Bodhi Coffee, located in the lovely and historic Society Hill neighborhood in Center City Philadelphia. It will run for approximately eight weeks. While it’s a small exhibit it focuses on some of my favorite photographs of people.
So if you find yourself in Philadelphia and have a spare moment, please stop by, have a cup of coffee and take a look at my photographs. Send me a note and maybe we can get together to discuss photography over something hot!
Bodhi Coffee is located at 410 S 2nd Street, Philadelphia, PA 19147.
