2007 was a good year



For all the doom and gloom of 2007 (just read the news paper today) for DGgroup and Excellence Photography it was a good year. Personally not too good in the end but business was good.

I love to set goals.

Personally I've had a set back. Eating too much over the holidays, getting sick and not generally happy enough had left me feeling angry, upset and unsatisfied. But today is a new day. I couldnt sleep all night last night. Just laid there thinking about good things and bad things. Finally I decided to decide.

Ya sounds weird. But conscientiously making a decision has always help me make drastic changes in my life. I decided to get married. I decided to have children, start a business, then another, buy a car etc. I think the times I am most likely to have problems in my life is when I let life decide, or go with the flow.

Can you think of something you can improve in your life??

Here is my top 3

  1. Need to meditate more. The lack of focus and control that seems to trap me is caused by not slowing down. Meditation could be the key
  2. Be more thankful - I have a wonderful wife, family and friends. I need to reward them with time.
  3. get healthy - not just me but all the facets of my life. Weight, air quality, recycle more and postive energy.

Ahhh Sleep!!


Alex and I sent Thursday night together --- oohhhaaaaaa ----- running orders for TorontoHomeMovies.com and while Alex, Vitali, Anton, Aaron, Arthur, Natalie, Shanay and John have worked 12-16 hours a day for the past 2 months we are finally down to the last few orders. I miss working as a team on a single goal. When I 20 I was a member of the Cadets of Bergen county. Working with a group of people on a common goal takes strong leadership and dedicated people. Thanks to Alex and the great people who work at the Toronto office we will be able to get everyones order out for xmas!!!

In Florida - Although the team is much smaller things are progressing really well with Matt's guidance. I can't wait to meet all the appointment we have made for weddings in Florida this year. The new Boca site will be finalized thanks to Matt and Tim on January 1st.



On Tuesday I did my first all nighter in many years. It was amazing. Around 3am I realized how late it was but thought to myself what the hell. Around 2pm the next day I was till going strong!!

Of course, I just returned from a week in the south. Went to St. Thomas and St Martin. Me and the family even did some cruising on a 25 ft boston whaler in Orlando. Next week we are out of here again!!! Email me if you need me, we will not be picking up phone messages until January 1st.

I love it when couples - get it!


Too often I take photos that couple just don't get. A really funky pose or a situation just out of the ordinary and they pass over the photo looking for a nice smile.

I love this shot for all that its not. Not hugs, and smiles - just -- what the word you use to discribe??

Mine is - movement.
