The Sun Sets On 2012 ...

The sun goes down off Mallory Square in Key West, Florida on Wednesday, August, 22, 2012.

This year has been an awesome one for me personally and I have a ton to be thankful for. To sum up, I got married, had a sweet honeymoon, rediscovered running -- though I need to re-focus on that in 2013 -- and got my first 4-column photo on The Wall Street Journal's Greater New York Metro front. However, it's been a considerably tough year for much of the New York Metropolitan area, Connecticut and New Jersey. Here's hoping 2013 brings good fortune to everyone as the area continues to recover. Happy New Year everyone!

Red Balloons

Two red balloons add a splash of color to the bare trees in Parsippany, New Jersey on Wednesday, December 26, 2012.

I went out this afternoon to try and get some shots of the weather but ended up going with these two balloons stuck in the branches of some trees outside our apartment.

Merry Christmas!

I went out to call my Aunt Kathy and wish her a Merry Christmas tonight and take some instagrams of the decorations. I was going to post what I took up there but decided to go with this one which I took from the 6th floor of the WSJ office.

We headed back down to south Jersey last night to celebrate Christmas Eve with the family. Definitely a fun night. Merry Christmas everyone!

I spent a lot of time taking pictures of my buddy Cam this weekend. Here's a few of the ones I liked.

Birthday Girls

We took a trip down to South Jersey last weekend to celebrate a couple of birthdays and celebrate the holidays with family. It fun photographing the little ones on their big day.
