The best wedding photojournalists in Western New York and Central New York got together tonight for a 2006 wedding season kickoff party and studio open house in Rochester, New York.
Neil and Liesl Cowley, Brady Dillsworth and Luke Walker hosted this excellent event at the Cowley’s downtown Rochester studio. Then we went to the Dinosaur Bar-B-Que Restaurant ...A genuine Honky-Tonk Rib Joint for more great times and food.
What really made the night extra special for me was that my good friend Shai Eynav (well known as one of the best photographers anywhere) finally had the chance to meet my son Gabriel. I will never forget calling Shai last year at 11:30 on the night we found out Gabriel had cancer, and asking him if he could cover a wedding for me the next day. Without hesitation he said he would do what ever he could to help. For this I will be forever grateful.
Word up! Why didn't you post any pics - I haven't blogged it yet, lazy me. I'll do it today.

Frank it would not have been cool without you there. afterall, you were the ONLY photographer with a REAL camera AND (ahem hem) a memory card to put in it.
I can't wait to do it again!

Frank,
Thanks for stopping by the Cowley's studio for the WNY+CNY wedding photography event. It was great to get to know everyone. I'll email when I'm around your area so we can meet up.

I said it last night and I will say it again - it was good to FINALLY meet you, Luke and the rest of that crew. Shai is a GREAT photographer and VERY VERY funny guy! We LOVED talking with him and glad he came. An excellent time all the way around - can't wait to do it again!
