Chuck is a committed adherent of digital photography and has been working with Lime Street Studios since the 2003 wedding season.

Since graduating from the Art Institute of Philadelphia in 2001 with Best Portfolio honors, he has worked for a number of well-known Philadelphia photographers including Michael Branscom and Michael Leslie, shooting weddings as well as editorial and commercial photography assignments.

Although equally versed in traditional film photography and digital, Chuck believes digital surpasses film both for creative reasons and for the quality it can deliver. “Digital allows the photographer to view their work instantly and to critique their work. And of course you can also instantly share your work with clients. It is also technically a more flexible medium than film.”

Originally from Delaware, Chuck is now based in Manyunk, a suburb of Philadelphia.

Carl began working with Lime Street Studios during the 2005 wedding season when the studio began developing its unique approach to wedding videography.

His extensive background in the graphic arts, from study at Chambersburg Vo-tech and at Wilson College, in photography, film, illustration, art, design and printing, led to a degree in graphic arts and design.

Even when he undertook a degree in Physical Therapy at Penn State and later a qualification in massage therapy through the Lancaster School of Massage, he continued his active practice in the visual arts, while at the same time developing a career as a therapist.

His recent digital still photography is the subject of the annual Lime Street Studios Lancaster ArtWalk exhibition, held April 21-23, 2006 and on show for the remainder of the year in the studio’s Stairs Gallery.

From filming his own extended family to capturing the essence of a couple’s wedding day, Carl has built a style that parallels the studio’s photojournalistic, documentary approach; one that strives to blend verite with classic romantic video making.

Carl lives in Lancaster with a menagerie of domesticated animals and birds. His other artistic talents include wedding singer and singing appearances on cable TV and the annual Wrightsville Fair.
