i always wait until the last minute to submit an ad to Duly Noted. the very last minute. since my design partner is imaginary i was forced to come up with something. i knew the image i wanted and i knew the size it had to be. 2 combinations of RGB, […]
if you know me, you know how ironic it is that, on my Mom’s last day of chemotherapy, Lisa Raitt is on the cover of the Chronicle Herald with her cancer comments in print. Fresh off the Wifag OF370 coldset printing press. unless asked, i don’t really talk about it with anyone. not […]
serendipity. the paper was right there, all alone in a huge corner of the train station. how could you not try it again? one of my favorites from Gillian & Brendan’s wedding.
love it when an idea takes on a life of its own. in fact, i wish it was that way all the time. i have always wanted to do a shoot at this tree. You know the tree. erika & mark met me there around 6pm under mostly sunny skies and Simpson’s clouds. love me […]
when i was a wee lad, probably 10 or so, I would hop on my bike and walk about 2 blocks to the playground near my house every single monday – friday in the summers. i don’t think they offer the same thing to kids these days, but back then they had ‘big kids’ looking […]
Malcolm Gladwell’s recent book, Outliers, mentions how plane crashes do not happen simply because something went wrong. I may be a little off, but I think catastrophes such as plane crashes happen when a series of seven or more errors occur. (the voting results lead me to believe you don’t want to read, […]
been singing this song all day long because Cheryl blogged about Hank Williams yesterday. You can check out her blog! it always makes me feel bad for poor Kawliga every single time i hear it…even though he’s a wooden indian.
seriously, we’re all old enough to remember actually having photos albums right? taking a picture with some old school film camera you just point and click and hope you pick up some decent prints at the Woolco for $2.99. you peeeeel back that nasty plastic cover on the album page and place 4 images in […]
its been some time since the little Miss Lola Jean has been here. as you can see she’s been bulking up. she is hopefully going to become a cyclist like her Daddy used to be…what else would you do w those thighs! so we’re not crawling yet…more of a rolling all around the house which […]
here’s a quick post. i’m pretty sure Marse slipped me sleeping pills to lure me away from the office. finished up our second nite of shooting for MaMe Maternity jeans and grabbed a quick last minute shot for Erika….it was very close to the sushi table. asleep before midnite. some kinda miracle!
in my old job, i used to role play in an attempt to be prepared for circumstances that could potentially arise in ‘real’ life. i’d be the sales rep and a colleague/manager/suitable filler would be the buyer. this, of course, is at 8am after 2-3 hrs sleep in your business casual clothes face down on […]
so today was my only Saturday off until November. The sun was shining, it was super warm and the plan was to meet some friends at Point Pleasant for a picnic with all the kids and brown bag beer for the adults. Marse packed up a bad ass picnic w sandwiches, boccaccini cheese, fresh cookies…and […]
i was up at 6.27am this morning because thats when Lola told me to get up. we had coffee and conversation and i think she’s falling for me…still no kisses but she hugs better than ever before. i checked a few blogs, tweets, facebooks etc and everyone…i mean EVERYONE had positive things to say. everyone […]
i know this girl…well, I internet know this girl who sent me some buttons in the mail. a real, mailbag carrying, letter dropping, always bringing me nuthing but junk mail mail man delivered the package to me. in return, i was supposed to send her a photo with the buttons somehow in the photo. i […]
i’m sitting here tweaking a few images for the website…time to update some images and drop in a few images from this years weddings. in the background is gord downie singing, ‘one day you’ll just up and quit and that’ll be it…’ it’s times like these that i ponder destiny and fate and patience. i […]
i love doing photo shoots w Felicity Bridal. the best part is, i think we’re just getting warmed up. each shoots seems to evolve a little bit and yet we manage to keep it really simple. this is one hell of a sexy little wedding dress. i’m a big fan! chelsea & martin were fantastic. […]
easy. get your mind out of the gutter. met up with Julie and Mark while they were in town for a few days and took a quick walk around the Dingle. mark used to engage in extracurriculars there and julie pulled swimmers out of the water years ago. it was a fun shoot because we […]
seems I’m always in a hurry when i get to this point. i’ll be somewhere at some random place and think about something brilliant to blog about…and then i get here and have to rush off to shoot something or edit something or change a bum. looking forward to a night shoot w Felicity Bridal […]
