About the Photographer.

What can I say? I love my job . noI really Do love creating photos . It is a flaw and a blessing. But I think balances out quite nicely.
I have been making images since I was 12, but got very serious about photography while working in a local photo store for over 10 years (that’s right folks if Nikon or Canon built it, I got to touch it at least once.... or at least drool over some of it) .
My main love is working with people. Weddings , engagements and the occasional model . I start with no plans and let the shoot evolve naturally with the help of the people I photograph.
If you are up to the challenge, I will create something different and very cool for you.
Just tell me when and where and I am there.

 

Cuba Destination Wedding, Just a small taste…….

Hello …or should I say Hola!!!

Just returned from an awesome week spent in Cuba with a great couple Jenna and Derek. Now since it is only saturday afternoon and I have only just downloaded the photos mere hours ago I can only post a few photos for now. It was hard to pick but this was one of the many cool shots we did over the 3 days of shooting in Veradero Cuba.

Big thank you to the bridal party and all of the family members that made Tracy and I feel like part of the family.

Stay tuned for more….

Bridal Session in a unique location

  I just got back from Halifax where 4 other like minded photographers and I decided we needed some photo therapy in the form of cool bridal photos . So we arranged to rent the basement of a building in Halifax and go nuts!!

Debbie Savard(who works at Winchesters) was our model and was fantastic. We cannot thank you and enough.  I would also like to thank Charlotte for the hair and makeup . Great job.

It is now 1:25 am but I just had to post some rough  edits of the images we captured.  I have to give credit to the awesome photographers that came up with most of these awesome poses.

Liam Hennessy(Applehead studios), Brian Larter(Apature Studios), Jeff Cooke(Jeff Cooke photography) and Heather Crosby-Gionet(This is photography) …. you guys rock and I am very humble to be able to shoot with such talented individuals.

These are just a few of the images that we captured.

New Style of wedding Albums we are very excited about.

Hello , about a week ago I received my first studio sample flush-mount album. It is gorgeous.  Black leather cover , satin laminated pages  and  a awesome binding.

These albums will be avaiable as an option to all of our 2010 weddings  as an upgrade and will become standard for our 2011 wedding clients.

These albums can also be created for families, babies, High school seniors and Maternity  and are available in many different sizes.

These albums are created by a Canadian album supplier Willow Paperworks . Samples of other sizes can be found on their new site.

www.willowpaperworks.com

Customer service is top notch and was one of the best experiences with a album company I have ever had.

Big thanks to Donna and Chris for letting me use their wedding images for our first flush-mount album.

Here are just a few photos to show you the new style .

Check it out.

Beautiful Baby Bump….to a Beautiful baby .

Niki and Fred had the right frame of mind coming into the studio for their maternity portrait. They knew the story they wanted to tell and  were thinking about which wall they wanted their portrait hung on even before they came into the studio.

This couple’s maternity session was awesome because it had a heart warming story about their dog who knew the moment that Niki became pregnant even before she did.  He kept by her side and was always laying on her stomach and looking at her in a way to say… somethings up mom.  So I was glad  to incorporate this into the photo. Working with animals is not always predictable but this went so  well and we got great results. I still thank them for letting me do the doggy/couch concept shot.

Fred and Niki of course gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby  and were soon back in the studio to do their very first baby session. Their baby was a joy to photograph.  An infant so young and yet so expressive.  Still makes me smile when I look at the photos and see how much the little one looks like Fred.

Here are just a few of the images that are now proudly displayed on gallery canvas wall portraits on Fred and Niki’s walls at home.

Enjoy.

Studio Renovations so far……

As many of you know I am putting some extra time and effort  into renovation our home studio to make it more comfy and inviting. . You will notice the start to our proof viewing room  where clients come to view and choose their prints on a 60″ wide screen. This way they get to see the true potential of their portrait at a wall portrait size. A few more pieces of drywall in the studio and some paint and a fully finished bathroom and change room  then we will have it done. Sounds like a lot … well I guess it is.  I will try to post update photos as we proceed. Keep in mind I am doing this mostly by myself with lots of help from my father and father in law as well as my very handy brother (he got the handy gene … I did not). Big thank you to them all .
