Nutty About Winter

This little squirrel was running around the property in Winfield finding and re-hiding nuts and bits everywhere. It was very busy but took a few seconds to pose nicely for the camera. This was taken in winter of 2010.

Shining New Light

Ryan was very patient with me as I tested out my new studio light. Pretty nice I think! He makes my lights look good. xoxo  

Gloomy Day

This was taken on 22nd of January at a morning soccer game. I had my camera out for some sports action shots. I saw the sun trying to poke out of the clouds and snapped a shot. I kind of like how it turned out. I did a touch of vignetting post production here but it added a bit of darkness. Our team won 7-0 so it wasn't such a gloomy day after all!

Don't Cry Broken Angel

Brook and I had a rainy photo day today. We intended on hanging around some Auto Wrecking yards and take some rusted metal and junk'ed car pictures.When we got there, and asked if we could take some shots, they said 'No.No photos.' I wonder if we made them nervous.After all we are very scary looking. A bit discouraging, but oh well. This is a shot from the graveyard across from John Oliver High School in Vancouver. Check out the tear in this Broken Angel's eye. Thanks to the rain.

Pinned down




I took this in 2009. I think this was one of the first shots I took that made me think that ANYTHING can be turned into an artistic photograph. I like the clothes lines and the cloud next to the tree in the background as well.

 

A Few More Of Pam & Dan & Baby-to-be

Baby blocks.

Every now and then, a sentimental smooch was in order. I'm so glad I captured their true feelings in this shot. A really nice couple!

A relaxed and fun time near the end of our shoot together.

I think daddy-to-be is excited, don't you?

Expect The Unexpected (Pun Intended)

This photo of Pam was taken with the intention of being fully lit up...but the flash didn't go. The light on her baby belly was from a difused light source. It came out very dark except for a bright cresent-shaped highlight near her belly button. I nearly deleted it but thought I would try to lighten it up using Lightroom 3. This is the result. I like the grainy effect. Love the romantic mood of it too. Seems peaceful to me.
Pam was a beautiful subject to photograph.
