(this is a screenshot i copied from myself…kind of. thanks Emma!) i second shot a wedding with Emma Rose back in November. so sweet. no pressure and complete freedom to just hang around anywhere and shoot anything. i loved it and I hope we do this more often. it was a lot of fun to […]
i’m a bit of a talk radio junky. CBC, 95.7, podcasts etc. pretty much every topic is interesting and i’m starting to think that when you hit 65 or 70 years of age, its perfectly acceptable to drink heavily and call in to talk radio programs. doesn’t that sound better than 3 minutes w Nickelback? […]
quick post. annie + trevor got married on New Year’s Eve in Halifax. The reception was at the Marriott Harbourfront downtown…and we brought the crazy booth experience. i gotta be honest, i expected bad weather. but New Year’s Eve on the East Coast was perfect. Blue Moon, fireworks and it was only -10ish with the […]
i had been kicking around this idea for a few weeks when cheryl sent me a text asking if I could do a shoot for her friend Paul before xmas. i was totally booked and had said we could try and hook up sometime in January. but I had this idea…right down tot he kind […]
i have an image i’m dying to post but its a surprise xmas gift and it must remain unposted until Dec 26th. its the result of great clients saying, ‘yeah, we are up for anything you want to try’. so until then, here’s a shot of my two favorite people in the world. i love […]
it’s no secret that I’m a big fan of Felicity Bridal in Halifax. i had no idea I’d be a 35 year old dude who often hangs out in a bridal boutique…but whatever. when I told Christa I was going to start shooting some boudoir photography she simply said, “I’m in”. I think it’s very […]
this was the first time we did this. i laughed a lot. i didn’t want some slow moving fade iiiiiinnnn fade oooouuuuutt kinda slideshow for this so i tried my hand at ShowIt Web custom timing. it was like a drumming course for toddlers in here. i was all over the road. i have discovered […]
i hadn’t met Kate + BJ until the day of the shoot. kate’s parents own the Shore Club in Hubbards and that’s where we went to do a little shooting in the torrential rain last week. it was fun to do a shoot in a new location, with a new couple and no idea what […]
Dawn Munden of Update Design saved my business. To think I almost painted the studio brown. Brown! it would have been like some African Safari photographic adventure in there! Dawn showed up, looked at me and said, “I know I can tell you this because we’re friends, “This is TOTALLY wrong'”. As soon as all […]
no images…just a really awesome story to tell you. I got a call from Christa at Felicity Bridal in Halifax about a month ago. She had a bride who had just purchased a beautiful wedding dress and was getting married on January 3oth. She was planning to get a few friends to take some photos […]
i have a favor to ask you. it’s not like me to ask you to do something for me like this but it would mean a lot. i’m not one to ask you to leave a comment, cast a vote or sign up for some crazy pyramid scheme. I figure if you have something to […]
i love shooting weddings at the World Trade and Convention Center in Halifax. It’s a giant playground with mirrors and ceiling and elevators along with a perfect little nook to set up for the Crazy Booth Experience. The full slideshow is coming…i swear. for now, here’s a few of my favorites from Mike + Anita’s […]
i have big intentions to post so many wedding images but keep getting sidetracked. this one I had to post for a few reasons… 1. Kate contacted me back in September to come out to their family farm in Tatamagouche for a family portrait. Her brother and his wife were going to be in town […]
the second Angela walked into the studio I said to myself, “please please please book your wedding with me”. She did. It had everything I love. new locations, live bands, full creative control and she wanted me to shoot for her as much as I wanted to shoot for her. I didn’t meet Nathan until […]
we’ve had so much going on the last little while that when it came time to getting some blog images up…i just wasn’t feeling it. so in an effort to be true what this is all about I haven’t posted anything for a little while. i dont want to post just for the sake of […]
i got a phone call from Brian Larter the other day to ask me if I had seen The Coast. I had not. Then he told me I got second place for Best Visual Artist in The Best of… for The Coast. I was stunned and thought he was pulling my leg. I still have […]
Melinda + Earl are getting married in Mexico in April but we’ve been set on doing a shoot in Halifax before the trip down south. They had a new Jeep and they wanted to get it dirty. I can tell you first hand that if you end up in emergency…ask for one of these two […]
i’ve got a book of sketches that I keep around for whenever an idea pops up for a shoot. some are really old and will never get done. some are so bad (i can’t draw) i have no idea what i was thinking at the time and some are just waiting… thanks to a trip […]
the last time I saw Tara she was limping to her car after an unfortunate spill on the top of the airport parking garage. i thought she had just broken a little bone and would be fine in a few weeks. as it turns out she tore, pulled, twisted and cracked a lot of things […]
ok, here’s a few more…still more to come. it’s 1.07am and i think its even too late to call Nicole to see if it’s ok to post some images from her boudoir shoot tonight…so until then, here’s one to keep you wondering who Nicole is. i think I started my very own posse. none of […]
