Celebrity Photographer right here in Cleveland!

As promised, here is just a sampling of Greg's wedding photography. Many famous people have found their way in front of Greg's camera including (above) baseball legend and Hall of Famer Tommy Lasorda during a wedding of a prominent Cleveland-area family at the Cleveland Renaissance Hotel.





Greg prefers to shoot his brides against the window (most wouldn't dare) to add a more 3-D look. These beautiful brides are only a part of the 300+ weddings Greg has shot during his career. Another famous and funny client! That's comedian Frank Caliendo (above) who has appeared on David Letterman and Late Night with Jay Leno. Frank recently did commercials for Direct-TV impersonating George W. and John Madden. Greg was Frank's official wedding photographer!













Yes, of course! Greg has to get the groom's Harley in the picture!
















Greg loves scenic bridal images and will take the time to set-up the bride and groom for a "lifetime shot!"












Candid's are very important to the wedding album! Greg says they "add flavor!".


































Greg always strives for symmetry when shooting wedding groups or families. These group shots are examples of keeping everyone's height in harmony. Greg loves to photograph families! Call me if you would like to schedule Greg to come out to photograph your wedding or a family portrait. Also, see Greg's photography profile that was published by his camera club in the blog archive for January 2009.

Vintage photos found of Greg & George and their Cycles!

Greg (8 years old), on-board his brother George's classic Harley-Davidson. Greg has said, this was the bike that started his love for motorcycles! (click on images to see details)

George leaning against his Harley "dresser" (first of two Harley's owned by George). George's MG convertible is resting in the background.






Greg and best friend and fellow rider, Bob G., taking a break during a ride in Canada. Love that leather jacket! (ca 1984)











George on-board his beautiful Harley, all stock with leather bags, fringes and white-wall tires...a real show bike!

Between the two of them, G and G had a total of 8 motorcycles. 3-Harley's, 3-BMW's, 1-Honda and a classic Puch/Sears Allstate 250. The brothers claim the BMW's are their favorites!
