One thing I will say, this was a great event.
The team took the day to decorate the Turvey Centre (which, if you don't know, is an IMMENSE function hall) and made it look fantastic. With Dust Jackets for vinyls all over the place, balloons, lights and some very inventive awards, it was just a preview of the things to come. I had a great time shooting this event for a good cause, and I hope to work with Regina Family Services on this event again in the future!

If you didn't get a chance to participate this year, I highly recommend that you check it out in 2014!
Check back with Regina Family Services for more details and mark it on your calendars!

It's rare that I ever come to the lake without at least SOME work that I have to do. And this trip is no exception. As I'd been working on other projects I am now taking some time to finally edit some of the images of Aliona I did a couple of weeks ago at our last session together.

Here's a couple images. I'm quite digging the Black and White today, not sure why, though perhaps the setting and Aliona's choice of dress made me think of Calvin Klein ads?

So recently I've become aware that I need to step up my game. In order to convince people of the value of hiring a pro as opposed to getting a "friend" with a "real nice camera" and Walmart, I need to make my photography even better. As a result, I asked my good friend Corrina one evening to pop over and help me out as I went back to the basics. All shot right in my kitchen... I'm sure this is just the beginning.

I recently had the happy experience of being invited into Brandy and Greg's home to do portraits of them. Explaining that "we haven't had any good pictures of us together since our wedding" is as good a reminder as any, I think, of how time flies and sometimes we need to slow down long enough to record things, so that in the future we can pause and rewind for a bit!
