Milestones

Recently, The Phantom of the Opera hit a major theatrical milestone. Not only is it the longest running show in Broadway history, but they just reached an amazing 9000 performances. Broadwayspace.com contacted me to shoot the event.

To make that performance extra special, unannounced to the audience, the producers had the legendary composer, Andrew Lloyd Webber, director/producer Harold Prince, and original choreographer Gillian Lynne.

They rushed some photographers and myself up to the stage right as the show ended. That's when the cast gave their bows and the Phantom had the "9000" cake brought out.

No Business Like Show Business

Every year Broadway has a big concert in the middle of Time Square to welcome in the rookie Broadway shows and celebrate the ones continuing to perform. They call the event "Broadway On Broadway." This year, I was hired to shoot the event for Broadwayspace.com (A Social Network for people who love theater, you should check it out!) I have never been to a "Broadway On Broadway" concert and especially not as press, but I had a lot of fun.

Here are some of the photos. You can check out the rest on the link at the bottom of this post.

Break-Time's Over!

During the first week of August, my aunt asked me to bring my camera equipment to her son's wedding. Sometimes, the hired photogs don't necessarily take everything you want them to and sometimes there are just certain people they can't get because they're so busy with the bride and groom, rightfully so.

They did hire professional wedding photographers, so I tried to stay out of their way as much as possible, while still capturing what I felt was interesting. It was actually my first time "shooting" a wedding, so I learned a lot and since have become interested in shooting more events.

In total, I took about 400 photographs, I've posted a few for your viewing pleasure. If you were at this wedding and would like copies of any of my photographs, you can reach me at BradResnick@gmail.com.
