Darcy Nair, Live at the Blackbeard Festival


Darcy Nair, Live at the Blackbeard Festival in Hampton, Virginia June 7th, 2009. A great performance by a very talented musician. If you missed this festival, you missed a lot of great talent and shows. We were there and took over 7 gigs of video and photos. We have been very busy the past few weeks shooting over 25 gigs of photos and videos, working on special surprises and putting up new web sites. We are going to be sharing some of those new web sites with you very soon. In the mean time, we have a lot of great stuff we just finished producing and getting put onto our video channel. We will be linking it here over the next couple of days.

The 7th Virginia Regiment At Gloucester May 30th, 2009


The 7th Virginia Regiment was here on May 30th, 2009 at the Historic Gloucester Courthouse circle demonstrating what life was like back during the American Revolution. These guys really know their history. Some of the demonstrations included 18th century medicine, food, the making of cloth, marching and shooting demonstrations and encampment life.

The 7th Virginia Regiment performs this service once every year. We were fortunate enough to get to meet and photograph a good number of the days demonstrations and we have a few videos we still need to put together. We will be creating a special web site hosting these pictures and videos and will announce the site once it is complete.

Historic Ware and Abingdon Episcopal Churches Becoming A Part Of TTC Media's Driving Tour



Chuck Thompson and TTC Media are creating an Historic Church Driving Tour that will feature some of the nations most incredible early American Architecture and history. The driving tour is comprised of SE Virginia historical sites and monuments such as Historic Christ Church in Weems, Historic St Luke's of Smithfield, Bruton Parish Church in Williamsburg and two of Gloucester's very own, Ware Episcopal Church established in 1652 and Abingdon Episcopal Church established in 1650. Though neither one of these sites are tourist destinations, they represent incredible architectural significance and historical value.

We have spent a great deal of time and travel going around and shooting all the historic churches we could locate. We are just about finished shooting all the churches we were able to locate. Some are not even mentioned anywhere. We found them the hard way by driving by and taking a closer look and finding well hidden gems mixed between the fantastic monuments. We have only 2 sites left. Jamestown and Hampton. We will be covering Hampton this weekend and Jamestown we are working on getting covered next week. Then each individual church will have it's own site. From there we will be building the main site which will be a driving tour of some of our nations most incredible treasures.


We expect the main site to be up and running in about 2 to 3 more weeks from this writing. Once the site is up, we will make the announcement and let everyone know.
