Gridiron Grill-Off | Ft. Lauderdale Photographer
I’m back from a nice, long, well deserved three-day weekend. We’ve been so busy here the last couple of weeks as we prepare for the second annual Gridiron Grill-Off. As I mentioned in a previous post, I’ve been working with Dolphin Alumni John Offerdahl to get ready for this amazing charity event that takes place on Friday, November 18, to benefit 4Kids of South Florida. On this particular rainy afternoon, I had the privilege to meet #67 Bob Kuechenberg who holds two Super Bowl rings and was a member of the 1972 undefeated Dolphins under coach Don Shula. Now granted, I was born in 1976, but having grown up in Miami being a Florida native (few and far between these days I know!), I truly have an appreciation for who he is and what the Dolphins have accomplished. In fact, over the past few weeks I’ve had the chance to meet a number of Dolphin greats that I will be posting over the next couple of weeks on the blog. So for the Gridiron Grill-Off, “Kuech” (as he is lovingly and respectfully referred to) is paired with Chef John Schupbach, the executive chef at the Casablanca Cafe on Ft. Lauderdale Beach. Which by the way if you’re looking for a unique and delicious dining experience. Do yourself and favor and go. I’ve eaten there a number of times and have never been disappointed. The ambiance alone is worth the trip. The restaurant is actually located in what was the first house on Ft. Lauderdale Beach. For more information on the Gridiron Grill-Off or 4Kids of South Florida please check out their websites.
In other studio news, courtney ortiz photography now has a facebook fanpage. I’ve held out long enough, trying to use a personal account for both, but the time has come. Please “like” us on facebook. Also, check out the wonderful interview of me on the waytutucute.com blog. I’m featured as a “way tutu busy mommy“. And ain’t that the truth.
till next time,
