SetsGalleriesTagsPeopleArchivesFavoritesProfile

I take photos of anything and everything, and I try to add an artistic perspective to each capture. All photos are original and were taken by me or my wife (as indicated). Please do not use any of our photos without our permission.

I want to learn and grow in the art of photography so your comments and notes are very much appreciated. Well, thanks for stopping by!

Eins-tein says:

"Eli's images and love he shares with those close is beyond inspiring. Seems like the kind of passion most of us aim for and wish upon a newly married couple.
There is no doubt that theirs is the everlasting honeymoon. A wonderful reminder that you don't have to be a king to love, the smallest little, simplest things make life worth living and having someone to share it with is the best thing in the world.
Thank you so much Eli & Roma, you've really inspired me."

"Eli's photostream is amazing. His love for his wife blows me away, and gives me something to aspire do, as do his photos. He posts stunning shots of everything, from sexy, passionate, and ALWAYS classy shots of he and his wife, to every day things. He's a kind soul and a beautiful person, inside and out, and I'm so glad I found him on Flickr."

"Eli has a natural talent for photography. It really is a joy to see the world through his eyes with his photos.
His images are so inspiring and so full of life. His love for his wife truly does show through his photos. They both are beautiful people. I am thankful that he shares his passion with us all. He really is a nice guy and is always supporting his flickr friends with MANY comments. His screen name, “theboywholaughs” seems to fit him perfectly. Thanks for your support:)"

"It took me days to comprehend your flickrmail message about testimonies, darn it was a simple testimonial which I was unaware beforehand that it exists in Flickr until you notified me! :-)

let me return the favor which you so truly deserve, I have never met a guy who proudly loves his wife than this dude and to capture snapshots whether it's about them or his own vision of the world is extremely rare and yet I found it genuine. Every time he mentions his love for his wife, an excerpt from the movie Troy would always cross my mind - "Honor Thy Woman". Enjoy your vacation in the island and post some snapshots of your stay here!"

"Why someone hasn't approached this talented image-maker about a putting together a book or establishing a professional studio is beyond me. His vision, his eye, his art — all move me deeply."

"What this man doesn't know is that it was his pictures that fueled the fire inside of me to get into photography. When I first saw his pictues I was like "Ok I need to get into photography now." Theboywholaughs definitely is that, loves to laugh and is a boy. LOL! Nah but seriously this guy is super funny and most importantly a man of GOD. Keep it up the great work bro!"
