I was honored to be asked by Paul Small and Josh Freeman to photograph images of Menorahs for this book " A Festival of Light". They have launched a Kickstarter to get this book published. It is much more than a book of photographs, please check out the video, support and share. Thanks.

Volunteered to photograph Big Sunday Thanksgiving event again this year. Everyone worked hard and had fun giving of themselves for others. Nice way to give back during this holiday season.

What an awesome day. So many people turned out to pack 1500 bags full of Thanksgiving food for others. (And have tons of donuts and pastry with about 1500 calories each!) As one person said, "I've never seen a crowd with so many smiles." We agree. It was amazing and what the holiday is all about. Here's 1 great pic. (Joel Lipton was back, taking more awesome photos.) More to come! Thanks to everyone who came today to help, have been dropping by all week with all kinds of food, have sent in money and other donations, and have such warm and generous spirits. Thank you all so much. There is much to be grateful for.

I will be photographing a number of projects, as always for Big Sunday this weekend. Awesome organization, with all sorts of projects for people of all ages to volunteer and have a great time doing so!

The idea behind Big Sunday is that absolutely everyone has some way that they can help somebody else. There are hundreds of projects to choose, and more keep being added.
