Photographed a family session this week. Perfect light and the kids were hilarious! 📸 @thatwerksphotography #newjersey

Really psyched that this episode of @piper_harlow show on @news12nj #plus is out! We filmed this performance in studio with @cultjamlove . Like, follow, share, engage, rearrange and repeat. 🎥 @thatwerksphotography #thepiperharlowshow

Happy Easter from the big guy! We’re talking about THE E.B. live and in person until 2:00pm today at the @runawayfarm_nj fundraiser at @the_rebecca_finn_house in @tomsriverlocal TODAY MARCH 23. Come by with your pups and peeps to support. 📸 @thatwerksphotography

I’m not a marine biologist, but I captured this creature today at a photo shoot today involving a waterfall. I think it’s a large trout? Comment below if you believe otherwise.

Are you a person or business that does a thing and you need a creative eye to market that thing? Give me a call, email, text or whisper that you need help. This piece was done for @djlawless_ 🎥 @thatwerksphotography

Gem mint TEN photography, ladies and gentlemen. It doesn’t get any hotter than this, folks. We’re talking higher quality imagery than a Ken Griffey Jr. rookie card! These photos from @thatwerksphotography don’t come in wax packs with gum! GEM MINT 10! Be dialing!

A happy St. Patrick’s Day one and all. Here we have a post that’s pulling double duty. It’s a St. Patrick’s Day wedding with @klyn619 and @kevfrancoo at Masker’s Barn. The #delorean was built in Ireland by Protestants and Catholics which just goes to show we can all get along. I invite other countries to cut the crap and start building cool things together.

Throwback to this session with Chris at @johnsoutside barn on the farm. Do not be alarmed, I am not spinning a yarn. I shot this series on medium format film on my #mamiya #645pro . 📸 @thatwerksphotography

Many great things have come from Ireland including the #delorean @guinness and some of the weirdest superstitions that undoubtedly spilled into making New Jersey weird too. @downtownsomerville captured by 📸 @thatwerksphotography #leprechauns #blarneystone #slainte #downtownsomerville

Photographed a 30 year old Polaris snowmobile with 26 miles on it. People collect everything apparently. #winter

Every so often I peruse LinkedIn and other business related forums and notice that the headshots people are using are quite old. A brand new portrait session will yield photos and I have more than enough Google reviews that testify to the ease of having them taken. 📸 @thatwerksphotography #thatwerks #thatwerksphotography #portraits #headshots #linkedinphoto #hunterdoncounty

Hello, Alveria! She found me on Google. Give Google a few years and I think you will see a lot more people using it. Headshots should be vibrant and engaging. If you are looking to do that then let’s talk. 🎥 @thatwerksphotography #thatwerks #headshots #portraits #thatwerksphotography

Slideshow moment with @perlacoffeeco 📸 @thatwerksphotography #food #folks #fun #coffee #broadheadsville #pennsylvania

I got to direct TWO episodes of the @piper_harlow show yesterday. As per usual I got minimal behind-the-scenes shots because I’m too busy working. I’m gonna have to mount an action cam to my head and let it run all day.

Incredible food at @saltpeppergrill22 and I say this with 100% accuracy because I had their tacos before I split today. I appreciated the wine barrel doubling as a table for the photography. Something different! #whitehousestation #tacos #foodphotography #thatwerks #thatwerksphotography #tacotuesday

Dipped into @realwildflowerspennington and photographed 20 of their popular dishes. Very accommodating folks because it ain’t easy doing this at lunchtime! Thank you!

Packed day of restaurant shoots. Get at me if you are looking to refresh your social media content. P.S. Don’t forget to call terrible drivers “ding dongs” it’s really cathartic and silly to say.

Working an event with people and people movers.

Happened upon some deliciousness at @perlacoffeeco today in #pennsylvania . If you enjoy food, coffee and @nutella then I have good news for you. Here’s a few shots taken on the good ole #sonya7iii #eatlocal

Stop by @greenknollgrill for some delicious eats, excellent beverages and LIVE music. Fun hanging out and capturing the good times rolling on a Thursday night. #somersetcountynj

Looks like it’s time you had the talk with your kids. The one you’ve been dreading. I’m talking about batteries. They need to know. Hell…YOU need to know.

One of the best things about photographing food? Getting to eat/drink it after the session. Here’s a couple finals from today at @everbowl_garwood_nj . They just opened their doors so swing by and show a brand new business your support. Tasty as can be! #garwood #garwoodnewjersey #everbowl

Today was packed. Started off photographing the @ubereats menu for @everbowl_garwood_nj (They just opened! Stop by and support.) #nj #acai #eathealthy

In 2024 I am going out of my way to inform people I shoot video. I have for a long time. I tend to keep Instagram heavily focused on the still imagery. That tune changes this year. Behold a small collection of projects I’ve filmed and edited. From #popstars to #beer and #food to #dance. The range is there so I can slide into whatever genre thrown at me. #thatwerks #video #socialmedia

Looking for new portraits/headshots? They have to be engaging. You can even lay down and relax while I do all the work. #thatwerksphotography #thatwerks #headshots #blackandwhite

I was passing by today and realized my reflection and the interior blended together. It appears my arm is the staircase and my nose is the wooden beam.

The annual @downtownsomerville #holidayjubilee filmed by 🎥 @thatwerksphotography . While I work on the full motion edit here are some stills to recap a few of the moments. Comment, share, like, stretch, yodel, etc.

Filming the holiday jubilee this evening in beautiful Downtown Somerville. If you ever wondered how I got involved with filming downtowns and counties for tourism it all started in Somerville at @lovethebeautybar .

I recorded this on lunch break today. Live vocals and rhythm guitar straight through. Glad to see @tompettyofficial getting all sorts of attention again lately. Backing track: Wild Gator Music #loveisalongroad #gta6

@factoryfuelco you will be (temporarily) missed. I hope there is a new location soon. You bring a lot of amazing things to Flemington outside of coffee. Like hot chocolate, live music, local vendor merch, vintage games, etc. For those that have a couple bucks to spare, they are raising funds for the holiday payroll to get people to 2024 and beyond. https://gofund.me/d2da3cfd

Dylan was 34 years old in his freshman year of high school.

Any KISS fan will tell you the past two decades have been brutal. Lousy albums, Paul Stanley lip-syncing, two jackwagons cosplaying as Ace Frehley and Peter Criss. Well at least we can look back on the first 30 or so years with fond memories. (Oh and @acefrehleyofficial is still putting out great albums outside of KISS. So much for Paul and Gene trying to discredit him.)
