Easter Sunday was the 10th anniversary of the Philly Zombie Crawl on South Street Philadelphia. This year the crawl was officially promoted to a parade; therefore the undead were allowed to march down the middle of South Street to hundreds of spectators on the sidewalks. Prizes were awarded to the best zombies at the parade’s end in front of The Legendary Dobbs. From there the hoard dispersed to various bars and establishments where the real party began.

Miss Philadelphia Pageant 2015
This was my second year shooting the Miss Philadelphia Pageant for PHL17. Here a few highlights of the night and the crowning of Julia Rae Schlucter.
Philadelphia Tattoo Convention
This event is very odd to shoot. Although there are hundreds of people getting new tattoos out in the open public convention center, many people look at you like “Why is this guy taking pictures of me? What a creep.” Perhaps next year I will get a big tat of a dragon on my face so I blend in better.
