Camp Life

2010-01-09T12:46:00.000-08:00

While on vacation in the White Shell we stayed at Cedarwood...

It's an awesome spot to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature at it's best - Situated on the Pinnawa bay in the Lee river system - it's the most tranquil place I can imagine...

Re-entering the life that was...

Play time with South African friends!

2009-03-26T18:55:00.000-07:00

Today we had a playdate with some great friends... They have a super cute son, here are some of the images of him that I captured "mid-play" We had so much fun! Thanks for coming over guys! capturing images of kids is always tricky - especially when you are in the studio, a place where they are generally uncomfortable and wiry of. So what we did here is just put the little man in the best lighting situation available and play time did the rest for us! It is definitely the best way to photograph young children! And the results are fantastic!

Global TV Wedding feature

2009-03-23T08:17:00.000-07:00

I found this clip through my great friend Joel, It speaks to the recession issue with regards to finding ways to cut costs on your wedding. Both Joel and I think that the advice they offer here is a bit backward and that cutting costs on things like photography, rings and such - the things that actually tangibly remain with you after the wedding is ludicrous. Have a look and tell me what you think...

Sweet Creations

2009-03-21T07:27:00.001-07:00

Crystal Hackywicz from Sweet Creations is one of the most creative people I have met! She makes cakes (and things) but these are not your ordinary run of the mil cakes - these are artworks. Masterpieces actually. I went over to her place yesterday and photographed this cake for one of her clients - Truly spectacular! You can call her at 570 1927, or add her as a friend on Facebook to see more of her work!

Great Job Crystal! Look forward to seeing more of you!
