From Julia Child to GI Joe

Well its been one of those crazy weeks...On top of my daily Adorama responsibilities, I had two assignments to shoot...

Thursday evening at the Smithsonian's Museum of American History where Writer/Director Nora Ephron donated costumes, a signed script, and props from her new film, "Julie & Julia", about Julia Child and a Bloger/Writer, starring Meryl Streep and Amy Adams, both of whom did a fantastic job. Go see this film as soon as it hits the screens, it was great!

Friday afternoon/evening I was at Andrews AFB for Paramount's Premiere of "GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra". The stars of the movie were there too (though REALLY late due to storms & air traffic control re-routing their jet from BWI to Dulles). It was a star studded event for the base with Channing Tatum, Sienna Miller, Rachel Nichols and Marlon Wayans in attendance who greeted all of the wounded warriors & families.
It was a very humbling experience to see so many wounded & recovering soldiers with their wives/husbands and children. The cast donated toys and signed autographs and spent many hours with anyone & everyone who wanted to have their photo taken or just shake hands. Paramount Pictures, their cast & crew deserve some kudos for this event.
