VPP Studios' NFL Tribute to the Ed Block Foundation

Welcome! If you made it here, that means that you are either a friend or a family member. I designed this page to keep those close to me, even closer. Much has happened in the last few months, so let me keep you abreast. I am single and now looking for a good woman. I'll make time for the right lady. Apply by email. Women Only! LOL

VPP Studios currently has a staff of 11 full time photographers including me and two part time photographers as we hired our eleventh full time photographer in February. As president and owner of the company, I have had little free time for myself.

This has been an extremely busy year for celebrity and sports photography. My wedding photography business continues to explode. However, I have decided to give back a little bit of that lost time to me. My 12 weeks of vacation ended in March as we began to prepare for the NFL Ed Block Courage Awards. I received an award on stage this year from the NFL and the Ed Block Foundation for our work with children in the community. Baltimore Colts legend and NFL Hall of Fame Player, Lenny Moore presented me with the award. I was honored and accepted on behalf of my company, VPP Studios with friends and family present. I have several fishing trips planned this year, but none will be out of the country because of the risk factor of the countries I visit and personal safety concerns. I did travel to Antigua, took a cruise to the Bahamas, and visited Orlando during my 12 weeks of vacation.

This is my fifth year as a member of the prestigious Center Club at the Legg Mason Building in Baltimore. My love of exotic animals keeps growing. I still have Rocky and Adrienne, my sugargliders. I am also the Owner/Site Administrator for the WSGN, the World Wide SugarGlider Network. I go by the screen name of "PepPony" when you visit the site. Click the WSGN logo to the right to visit the site. In keeping with the WSGN tradition of rescue and rehabilitation of sugar gliders which is the reason I founded the WSGN, I have adopted a 8-9 year rescued female named Cane (short for SugarCane). She is doing well for her age! Now 10yrs. old.

Putting God in my life first and foremost remains a priority. And if you are looking for me on Sundays--try church! My work with numerous charities continues. The primary charities which I sponsor are: The Ed Block Courage Awards Foundation, St. Vincents, The Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, The Johns Hopkins Children Center, The Arthritis Foundation, The League For People With Disabilities, The Heart Fund, MD School for the Blind, The Dan McNeal Memorial Fund and Flower Mart. My favorite charity for reasons I wish not to disclose here, remains the Ed Block. This page is dedicated to my friends in the National Football League that support me in my work, as I support them for their contributions to Ed Block and children everywhere.

Last but not least, for my fishing buddies--although my boat was destroyed in an arson fire, my quest to secure a bigger vessel continues this year. I struck out at the boat show! God Bless You All and know that I love you as He loves you!
