Slayer at the Halifax Wedding Show? Let them eat Layers Wedding Cakes.
The Brides 2010 show took place last Sunday at the WTCC in Halifax and it was another huge success. This is an amazing show and the attendance gets larger and larger every year. One of the busiest booths of the entire show was Jennifer Harrison’s cake booth. Layers Wedding Cakes from Halifax had about 10 people […]
an engagement session left of the murder.
i’ve had this idea kicking around in my brain for a while now. i had originally wanted to do this shoot w Shawn + Nicole for no other reason than a few laughs. It just never happened. when I talked to Kim about her engagement shoot she wasn’t big on shooting outside in the cold […]
I guess this makes me a destination wedding photographer…
working on this until the puck drops. tell you to have boudoir photography in a very cool place w Applehead Studio
I remember the very first trade show I ever did. It was Reno, Nevada and we were unveiling the new Prometheus Pellet Fuel Basket. I tried to find a link somewhere but I can’t find it anywhere on the world wide web. So that will tell you how well that product went. (it was actually […]
Debbie was our veil model for the nite and Charlotte came along with her. If anyone asks Charlotte what what she did last nite she will mostly likely tell them she hung out in a dusty basement with a bunch of photography nerds. When she had boudoir photography done in Halifax is was from Applehead […]
If you’ve been following my blog for any length of time, you know there have been a few times where, during a shoot, we’ve run into wasp nests, gun wielding RCMP, broken ankles, burning dresses and unfortunate falls in deep, wet holes in caves. I shot more weddings in the rain last year than I […]
the rest of the story in the next few days…
i’m like a kid in a candy store. it’s 3 hours before the wedding and I’m sitting at a corner of an empty bar with headphones on, drinking straight water and wondering who’s more nervous…me or Jennie. Dave and Jennie and I got up at 5.30am yesterday and just started walking in the opposite direction […]
i should be at dinner w Marcia and everyone else but I had to sneak down to check out some pics from this mornings sunrise shoot w Dave + Jennie. This is a sign of good things to come tomorrow!
constructive criticism. when you really want to get better and you can handle someone telling you your images look like shit, it’s one of the best kinds of learning you can get. and it’s free. people love to tell you exactly how they feel. i’m lucky enough to have a few people who’s opinions i […]
Kim came to the studio last week because she needed a shot of herself for her website and branding. She is currently the head honcho at www.KimReardon.com (no she is not a duck). Marse has been after me for about 18m now to get health insurance, suggesting I can’t stand on the ledge of high […]
i’ve been dying to shoot a bride in a cage veil for a really long time now. they look so sophisticated and sexy and dark. so when I had a chance to shoot with one yesterday I was very happy. this was one of the last shots. it was supposed to be a test shot […]
here’s one shot from tonight’s shoot at Silver City Tattoo. Kirt had a 4 hour session w JP Tremblay. I’ll get more up later this week.
Applehead Radio – Episode 2 – Grand Pre Wines & LeCaveau
I can’t say it enough. I absolutely love shooting at Grand Pre Wines down in the Valley. The scenery, the food, the staff…everything….exceed my expectations. I’m always really happy with the images I get from every wedding I shoot there, rain or shine. Its pretty cool to hear the enthusiasm and passion in everything Beatrice […]

Top 30 Around 30 in Halifax – Wedding Photographer
the title alone is enough to make me want to smoke from a pipe and reflect back on the days of atari and the version of Bon Jovi that was awesome. I’m almost as old as dirt. that being said, I was stoked to be asked to be a part of Faces Magazine’s Top 30 […]
New Years Eve at the Marriott Harbourfront for Annie + Trevor’s wedding and the Crazy Booth Experience is out of control. most images are not fit for the blog…and I’ll post anything! we said: do three things w the scarf they: got all Quentin Tarantino on us
Applehead Radio – Episode 1 – JLF Productions – videographer
Episode 1 of Applehead Radio is in the can. What a blast! I got an email from someone right after and she said, “Wow, that guy was awesome, you just asked him one question and then you two talked for an hour.” Big thanks to Jason LeFrense for doing the pilot episode with me. If […]
here’s another one from Mandy + Adam’s wedding i shot w Emma in November. when Emma sent me the file it was named ‘swingy dress’. it was an image we shot just before we headed in out of the cold. it was one of those ‘hey can I just try one more thing’ kind of […]
i personally think you learn the most from failure. i remember a piano concert I royally f***ed up back in junior high. i was sitting on the stool in front of the piano and for the life of me could not get Super Trouper to get from my brain to my fingers. Disaster…but I’ll never […]
