I recently had a fun day
taking still images for
 |
| Stephen Skeel and Michael Ayjian of 7 Wonders Cinema |
7 Wonders Cinema
was in Philadelphia filming for Expedia.
They asked me to take behind the scene images
documenting the filming process.
 |
| Filming at Eastern State Penitentiary |
The morning started early at
Eastern State Penitentiary.
It was a great location
and fascinating for me to watch them at work.
 |
| Always Carrying Gear |
As their photographer,
I was also able to see some locations
not open to the general public.
 |
| Filming the Philadelphia Sky Line from the Penitentiary Guard Tower |
Next up was filming at
 |
| City Tavern, Philadelphia, PA |
City Tavern was a hotspot
for Colonial Americans.
 |
| Franklin and Jefferson Arrive for Lunch |
Today, it serves 18th Century cuisine
with costumed wait staff to give
you the full Colonial experience.
 |
| Filming A Colonial Toast |
And just like in the 1700s
you might see
Ben Franklin or Thomas Jefferson
dining at one of the tables.
 |
| Checking the Footage |
On this day the two were also there for the filming.
But the tourists coming for lunch
wanted to take a peek too.
That made for interesting filming.
