Back in my acting days, I had many an awful, terrible, stinky, mind-numbing survival gig. One was working in an office, which all but did me in. I always remember these really lame-ass motivation posters that they would have hanging around the office. In big bold letters words like “SUCCESS” or “DREAM” would accompany some really boring stock image of a sailboat or a horizon (I’m sure many of you have come across these kind of posters in offices) with some terrible copy that would end with phrases like “reach for the horizon” or “sail to your dreams.”
Well, when I saw this image taken by my good friend SCOTT at Annie and Tony’s wedding, I thought now this is a poster I could hang on my wall. I remember being on the Jersey Shore that day, documenting their wedding, feeling like I could take a big deep breath and pat myself on the back because I was finally following my bliss…
Acting was such a hard road, filled with many more downs than ups and the actual acting gigs far and few between. I feel so grateful that now I can go out there every weekend and do my thing…

Carli - Wow, after reading that blog, I almost got up from my desk to quit my job…then I remembered… I have a wedding to pay for. Haha, I was just taking a little break and checking in for some wedding inspiration!
Ari Kaplan - I am always inspired by the way you capture the moment. For the record, I think you are a gifted photographer as well as a great actor. ["Monday morning, they're all yours."]
Jeremy - You rock Brother. Following your lead.
