Kathy and I had the great fortune of being surrounded by family and friends from around the world during our New Year’s Eve wedding in Philadelphia’s Old City.

During the ceremony, I handed my iPhone off to our friend George Miller, and – using ustream.tv and the Broadcaster app – we live-streamed our wedding to the world.

We didn’t get married in a disco, but it looked that way as a result of the flashing cameras, partly because so many of our friends are also photojournalists.

We feel so grateful to everyone! It was an incredible experience.

Happy New Year!!!

From 1984 through 2006, I worked as a full-time newspaper and wire service photojournalist, primarily in Boston and Philadelphia. Since then, I have focused my efforts more broadly across independent social media journalism, journalism education, and the study of trauma journalism, multimedia reporting, and the development of sustainable economic models for the future of journalism.
