A busy week ahead…

Well, I wasn’t sure that things could get any more exciting.. This week promises to be a good one. Monday – Thursday I’ll be minding the storefront in Fifth Ave. Place. (hint, hint.. stop on down and check out our wares!) Thursday night I’m planning on capturing a truly exciting image of the city of Pittsburgh (more details to come), Friday I second shoot a wedding for Chase Images, Saturday I have an engagement session and I’m going to be a part of Pittsburgh’s own I Made It Market. I’ll be offering a lot of photos for sale at the Greenfield Bridgefest. (hint, hint.. stop by between 4pm-9pm and have a look !)

In between all of these planned things, I’m going to try to get caught up on the past few weeks worth of editing.. wedding, portrait, and fine art stuff alike. The store has been more of a time vampire than I had anticipated, but now that it is (for the most part) running smoothly, I can get back to polishing my shots to present to the world (wide web). But wait, there’s more, as the late Mr. Mays would say. Who needs sleep when you have a city to photograph? I’m always after a great looking sunrise in the Steel City, so there will be some extra early mornings thrown in for good measure.

Wish me luck!

STEEL STUDIOS: The new storefront! (one month in)

I can’t believe that I neglected to blog about the collaboration that I’ve entered into with a fellow Pittsburgh Photographer. Well, I can believe it, seeing as it happened and I’m still recovering from the sleepless nights of preparation and  indisputable wizardry of making it a reality.  I have (share) a storefront in downtown Pittsburgh where people can come view and purchase my work! I can say that it has been a long term goal of mine to be in this situation and now that it has been a reality for over a month, I’m weary, but thrilled with all of the kind words that people have for my work.

We have a great assortment of images as photo prints, both framed and in ready-to-frame mats, metal prints that are vibrant and ready to hang (using a why-isn’t-this-patented cantilever mounting system), and canvas gallery wraps that are a classic, elegant, and timeless way of displaying your favorite image.

Speaking of images, I am displaying a sizable percentage of my captured of the beautiful city of Pittsburgh, a select number of landscapes, and a wide variety of my Urban Exploration work. I’ve been surprised by the number of people that browse through and like the abandoned buildings.

So, come on down to downtown and visit the store! We are Steel Studios and are located inside of Fifth Avenue Place (that’s Jenkin’s Arcade for you “mature” folks.). Hours are 10am-6pm Monday-Friday and 10am-3pm on Saturday. If you’re looking to run into me, I’m there from Mon-Thurs.  You can also view our in-store inventory on our Square page.
