One of my favorite places to work is Congress Hall in Cape May NJ. It is just a different place to have a wedding. The owners of Congress Hall have a new hotel in Atlantic City, NJ. I was invited to a hard-hat preview of the Hotel.
the Chelsea! It is right next to the boardwalk in Atlantic City. I can’t wait to shoot a wedding here.
Here is the view from the 12th floor Chelsea Luxe suites.
Love the cool retro look of the rooms.
Two Stephen Starr resturants Teplitzky’s and Chelsea Prime, Saltwater pool, game room, spa’s and plenty of rooms will make this a great spot to bring all of your friends for the weekend.

I’m a CocaCola junkie. I love it. I drink too much of it.
I saw these cool new cans at the local purveyor of adult carbonated beverages. I spotted a new All Aluminium Can in the classic contour bottle shape. This looks like the shrink wrapped glass bottle till it is in your hand. Way cool and they work so good at keeping the contents tasty cold till they are gone…
The top has a screw cap with some plastic with the threads on it. You can see where the aluminium inside is flared out over the plastic. I love cool design. …m Sarah is 9…April 22, 2008 – 11:08 am

Last week was my first National Association of Catering Executives (NACE) meeting. Tim Sudall from Video One and Steve Wernick from Videocassion both great Video Producers have been bugging me for years to join and attend NACE meetings. I get to work in some great venues in the tri-state area but don’t alway keep in touch with them. This is just one way to keep in touch and also network with new people. I did see some of my favorite friends Amy Pelz and Jennifer O’Neil from The Manor House at Commonwealth National Golf Club. The evening was fun and the Pheonixville Country Club was awesome. Dawn Gannon and the crew at the club were on tonite. The Dinner was incredible. The club is in a beautiful old building that feels nice and new on the inside. A great place for a party. They also have a 9 hole golf course considered one of the best in the nation. …m It’s My Birthday !February 14, 2008 – 2:17 pm

My dad michael has been sick for a few months and we have had a lot of time together to and from the Hospital and home. The time was nice to have to talk with dad about his life. He was so proud of his kids and grandkids. We did have a wonderful Christmas this year with all of his family surrounding him. The way he always loved it. Feb 1st is also my late Aunt Lois’s birthday and Mom swears she came for him today. Lois got me my first real camera so it’s kinda her fault I don’t have a real job…
We will miss him dearly… michael j. leslie 5-5-1936 ~ 2-1-2008 …m | ||
