Later today my Philly Mag column should go live and I’ll link it tomorrow, cause I’m going out now. Hope you caught my Fox 29 and B101 coverage. Tomorrow I’ll chat a little more about the layout of the Festival and add more celeb photos so they don’t clash with Philly Mag column. Thanks much. Chat soon. HughE

All week the Budweiser Clydesdales have been in Philadelphia to kick off the 2nd Annual Budweiser Made in America Festival which begins tomorrow at 2pm along the Parkway.
Budweiser Made in America Festival 2013 Line Up at Philly.com http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/entertainment/music_nightlife/Made-in-America-daily-lineup-schedule-released.html
Check out my coverage of Made in America on this blog and on my segment on Fox 29’s Good Day Philly 9:30AM on Monday and in PhillyMag on Tuesday. I’ll have all the fun stories and events.
I feel what’s missing in these latest stories of the tragedy that happened with Chuck Peruto and Julia Law is a photo of them together. I photographed them during a chance meeting a week or so earlier as they passed a party I was photographing near Rittenhouse Square. They were going out with another couple to a show nearby. It’s never been published til now. They were the picture of happiness. It’s so sad to read of her tragic death again, and now a back story that doesn’t paint how beautiful she and lively she was.
These photos were uploaded in a crazy fashion

The one thing on my bucket list was to see where Donna Summer was buried. She was the very first album I bought as a kid.
I was all set to see her at the Latin Casino with a family friend, but then my mom heard that moaning song and forbade me. I was 12 at the time – LOL
On the same day as the super dooper Diner en Blanc event, Philly Daily News had their annual Sexy Singles Party. I was sad to have missed it for the first time in 5 years, but their PR company sent me a few photos to share with you; plus I have a sexy video from Focused Studios (see last photo)

By now you should all be familiar with Diner en Blanc, no doubt after the amazing media blitz that happened last week especially on Friday. With 2500 confirmed people for the pop-up dinner party, Diner en Blanc engaged 4 photographers to cover the event as photojournalists.
We were all given different assignments. Since I photograph people for a living, that was my focus. I love what I do: Get people, stories and for the most part get names so that the organization could send out the 30 – 50 shots Diner en Blanc requested from me to send to them for distribution. Plus I took photos for my two media outlets. Hopefully you’ll find yours in one of my outlets, if not at some point I will be putting some of the other 400 shots on my FB page Philly ChitChat or sending them to Diner en Blanc for their use.
Crazy dedications to get to the location. Throughout the night I would ask people was it worth it, not one person said no. Many said they’d do it again next year.
Nice spread for the press. Over 55 bloggers and press people were invited to attend the event, most having done pre-press and a few doing follow up stories. I think that Aversa PR has tapped into something. I know we’re friends, but I have never seen as much coverage for an event, and so much afterwards too. My Philly.com column went up at 3PM and immediately shot to #1 most popular story by 5PM. (The comments can be son interesting too.)
I did get this though, if anyone can tell me how to unattach the videos I would love it. It drives me crazy they run into each other.
Everyone was responsible for removing their own trash too ie see see the trash bag she’s carrying as they leave the event.
These folks were leaving and gave a shout out that they’d be back again next year.
This entry is on hold; I’ve spoken to several sources involved and
although this is contender, and definitely a dream come true spot for them, no agreements or
commitments have been signed at any locations. I apologize for jumping
the gun, but I am excited how everyone is very excited to
see where Joan Shepp will finally land ( no one more than me), and I
really hope it’s here with these spectacular windows.
I’ve been tweeting and teasing you all year, and now intensely for two weeks on where Joan Shepp would be moving, and hinting on where she’d go. They asked me to hold the story, the full story and I did, but Metro/GMA reporter Laura Goldman kinda tweeted where Shepp was going to on Wednesday, and well now I feel it’s ok to reveal the entire story.
