The original pinup was the 1887 Gibson Girl, however with WWI she became more practical posing in uniforms. This transitioned the Gibson Girl to the Petty Girl. George Petty took the girl next door and patriotism and created the ultimate pin up girl. #pinup #wwii #wwiipinup #aviationpinup #navypinup #armypinup

Starting in 2023, Lerro Photography will be organizing photo workshops in New York City and Philadelphia. Keep an eye out for future announcements.

Ulysses S. Grant A devoted family man and a private man. He was often self conscious about his appearance. The photo taken after Cold Harbor was one in which he did pose for a photographer. He was just given the massive casualty numbers from the last assault and he stares resolutely toward the enemy. #ulyssessgrant #americancivilwar US Grant in living history

Sandy Hook Lighthouse in New Jersey is the oldest (never rebuilt) existing lighthouse in the US. It was built in 1764 and is still in operation today. #newjersey #sandyhooknj

It doesn't get much clearer than that. What a spectacular array of stars and the milky way #milkyway #milkywayphotography #milkywayphotography #starphotography #starphoto #nightphotography #desertphotography

National Aviation Day! It's only fitting it is the same day as Orville Wright’s birthday. Think of the advances we have made in just over 100 years.

The Clover Valley Lumber Co. No. 4 is one of only two surviving split saddle tank mallets remaining. Saddle tanks were often used for smaller locomotives that were used for industrial work. Niles Canyon Railway #clovervalleylumbercompanyengine #baldwinlocamotive

D-Day Conneaut Ohio is a premier living history event and one of the most realistic and largest WWII reenactments in the United States. Pete has been volunteering his services and photo skills with this event as a staff photographer since 2016. This year Pete has taken on the role as the lead staff photographer for this amazing 3-day event. He has made many new friends and relationships because of this opportunity and it has opened numerous doors to new photo shoots. He is very grateful to have been given the opportunity to continue helping promote living history events. Keep an eye out for live updates and photos starting next Wednesday!

Today is National Lighthouse Day! Lerro Photography knows the beauty of these useful structures. Lighthouses were a beacon of hope to travelers seeking land during dark nights. #lighthousenightphoto #nightphotography #lighthousepoint #milkywayphotography #nationallighthouseday

The bald eagle became the national bird of the United States of America in 1782. Our founding fathers were enamored with the Roman Republic’s government. The eagle was a potent symbol in Rome representing the military and political power of the Empire power of Christ, so it’s no surprise that an eagle was chosen to symbolise the new Republic. #baldeagle #baldeagle #foundingfathers #nationalsymbol #NationalSymbols #wildlifephotography
