Last night I had the honor of being the photographer at #helloSAL, a “reveal” party for one of Pittsburgh’s most darling icons – Secret Agent L. You can read about Laura and her adventures in Pittsburgh here. The event was a total success and raised over $1,500 for the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). Here are a few shots from the party. If you were there, or wish you had been, leave a comment and share something about the evening!

There were lots of neat things to bid on at the silent auction - craft brews, hand bags, stationary, gift certificates, books and more...

The Firehouse Lounge was serving up $5 sangrias that even the most die-hard beer drinkers couldn't resist.

SAL set up a Mini Mission Station for people to take part in.

At 9:00 p.m. SAL revealed what everyone had been waiting for...herself!

#helloSAL quickly evolved into a dance party on the terrace and continued well past the event's scheduled time.

I’ve decided to submit one of the following photos to a “passion for light” contest. I have always been passionate about using natural light as much as possible and I have chosen these three based on on how I feel they represent my ability to get the shot I want without the use of flash equipment. Will you help me decide which one to submit? Please leave a comment below with your pick and tell me why you think it’s the best of the three (from left to right, we’ll call them “1″, “2″ and “3″).
Thanks for your help!

I just returned from a wedding at the breathtaking Hayloft in Somerset, Pa. The wedding was gorgeous and Chris and Caitlin could not have asked for a more beautiful day. I’ll be posting more later on, but in the meantime, I just had to share a few of these with you…
I’ve never seen anything like this before! Apparently, the deer had broken its leg a while back and the venue’s owners cared for it and nursed it back to health and ever since it’s been extremely friendly with its guests. Here are a couple of pictures of the deer greeting guests and eating the venue’s flowers:



And to add to the “friendly animal” theme, here are a few of the Hayloft’s sweet and gentle horse:
