happy birthday johnny.

I photographed a party on Saturday that was held at the home of the DeGirolamo's. As I entered the backyard, I literally gasped in disbelief. I felt like I was walking into my own private resort. To say the house was breathtaking, was an understatement. The view alone, was worth a thousand words.

If I lived here, I would never leave. I would never eat out. I would sit on my patio, sip wine, barbecue, and watch the sunset, while my make-believe kids playfully swam in the pool.

The second I saw the invitation I knew this was gonna be a fabulous party. It was black, silver and flashy in all the right places. Johnny's wife Tina is known for creating fabulous invitations, and she certainly lived up to the expectation.

The mobster-themed party had casino tables, a cigar bar and amazing food compliments of Trusela Catering. Italian music played in the background, as clams casino were devoured. Cigar smoke filled the air as guests threw dice across the craps tables.

It was a perfect, balmy summer night in July. If only I brought my sleeping bag, I could of slept over on a lounge chair....
