Fuji Bike’s Classic Catalogue

carina — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 20:48:08 +0000

I just received my copy of the Fuji Bike’s Classic Catalogue and I’m stoked about it! My scans aren’t the greatest ever, but you get the idea:

The super exciting part is that nearly all of the photographs in the catalogue are mine! Aside from a few stock photos of Philadelphia and the in-studio product shots of the bikes, my photos are all over it! Yeah!

One of the weddings we photographed this summer (Katy and Drew’s) was featured on Offbeat Bride’s website [link].

The East Coast

“Schmap!!” now displays one of my photos to represent the Fairmount Horticultural Center on their East Coast interactive map [link].

Here is the image that was selected:

Since 1979, the Horticultural Center has augmented the variety of its botanical life by collecting seeds from Asia, Europe, and the West Indies. Permanent and seasonal plantings display over 2,000 examples of flora. The center is located in Fairmount Park. On the grounds there is a Shofuzo-a reproduction of a 17th-Century Japanese middle-class house and Japanese garden.

Print Exchange; the letter Dd

carina — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 20:53:51 +0000

I’m a part of a print exchange featuring 26 artists. The theme is the alphabet, each of us being assigned a letter. I have D.

At some point, the letters are going to be on display at The Last Drop coffee shop in Philadelphia (more details on that later).

Also, a print exchange I was involved in last year (The 50 states) is going to be shown before the movies at Ritz theaters. This will be during the next month or two.

The Philadelphia Antiques Show

Amanda Jaffe, my associate photographer and studio partner, photographed all of the works for the Philadelphia Antiques Show loan exhibit with the help of another photographer, Sahar Coston. It was about 40 different objects in about 20 locations. I’ve been seeing a ton of billboards, flags and posters of her photographs all over center city Philadelphia. I’m super proud to have her as my partner! Great Job, Amanda!

The Johnson House

Last year I photographed the restoration on Johnson House Museum. [link]

I just received word that the museum was proclaimed as an award winning preservation project! I’m glad I played a part in the restoration of such a great historic landmark!

Rangefinder, Feb 08′

There’s an article about me in this month’s Rangefinder Magazine! [link] Rangefinder is a professional photography magazine that often highlights up-and-coming photographers, as well as new techniques and products available to photographers. I’m very flattered that they wrote a whole article about me, using five of my favorite images! Check it out if you get a chance. I can’t wait to see it in real life!

We did it again!

WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) awarded Carina Romano Photography an “Accolade of Excellence” in the 2007 8×10 Print Competition.

This is the print that won:

WPPI is the same organization that awarded me a scholarship last year to attend their conference and trade show. Of course, I couldn’t have done it without my partner, Amanda Jaffe, who photographs each wedding with me. So, go us!
