D-Day Conneaut Ohio 2022 D-Day Conneaut Ohio is a premier living history event and one of the largest and most realistic World War II reenactments in the United States. I have been volunteering as a staff photographer since 2016 and this year, I was honored to take the role of the lead staff photographer for the event. My job as the lead is to make sure that all the staff photographers have gotten coverage of all aspects of the event.

Maine Harbors and Lighthouses Workshop 2022
Maine Harbors and Lighthouses Workshop 2022 The coast of Maine offers some of the most scenic and photogenic maritime scenes in the United States. For our 2022 photo workshop, we focused on capturing the historic charm of the harbors, fishing wharves, lobster boats, lighthouses, and rocky cliffs in the area. This workshop was scheduled to occur during the full moon so our photo opportunities could take advantage of the moon. I traveled to Maine several days early to get up to date on lobster trap placement and how many lobster boats were out fishing each day. A couple of the photographers… [Read More]
Howard DGA-15P Air to Air Photo Shoot 2022
Howard DGA-15P Air to Air Photo Shoot 2022 In July 2022, I was given the opportunity to photograph two Howard DGA-15Ps in the air over Lake Erie. These beautifully restored aircraft are privately owned and maintained to a very high standard, so much so that the green Howard won Best in Show at Oshkosh 2019. If these planes look familiar, it’s because they both made a surprise appearance during our Liberty Aviation photo shoot for both day and night photos in 2021. Fun Fact: DGA in the name stands for “Damn Good Airplane”. I look forward to working with the… [Read More]

We mounted our large LED lights on the port side of the ship… [Read More]
Old Bedford Village Scouting
The Old West at Old Bedford Village Lerro Photography was invited to photograph a public “Old West” event at the Old Bedford Village in Bedford PA. I have been trying to put on a Wild West-themed photo shoot in Tombstone, AZ in recent years but the pandemic and other delays occurred. It was thought that if we could make enough connections at this Old Bedford Village event, it could open a door to making a future Wild West photo shoot happen. Throughout the day, I photographed reenactors in a variety of scenarios including gun shootouts, portraits, and everyday life. I saw some… [Read More]
