Reading is Delicious








Finally an Extra-Ordinary Moment worth blogging about. I have been so busy shooting assignments, portraits and other assorted projects and really concentrating on my other blog Suburban Bliss that I haven't posted on this site... So sorry, my bad! Anyway, I'm changing what this blog is about.. some of my professional extra-ordinary moments as a photographer and an artist.  I'm blessed.  I get to photograph wonderful people all the time... some make it onto my web sites or into my portfolio  and others just don't fit into the "style" people  think I do  Extra-Ordinary Moments will document my "out of the box" assignments and commissions.  What better way to re-launch this blog then with a delicious celebrity chef, Mario Batali.
Mr. Batali's foundation MBF   sponsored a library within a school on the lower east side in NYC with my absolute favorite charity, Books for Kids  BFK creates libraries with sponsors all over the country in "at risk" neighborhoods and turns the kids onto the magic of books. This past Monday was the ribbon cutting ceremony, and Mr. Batali came downtown to the Dewitt Reformed Church School on Rivington Street for the official dedication and stayed to read his favorite book "Green Eggs and Ham" to the kids. A sweet man, a wonderful organization and some pretty adorable kids make a perfect recipe for  building a solid foundation for literacy no matter where the school is located... Don't you think?
