In February, a friend asked me if I could do a maternity shoot for her. Winter photoshoots are fun but not really appropriate for a pregnant woman. Just before the pandemic hit Canada, I purchased some portable studio equipment which I had tested at the time on family but never for a proper shoot. Thankfully, […]
Despite having lived in the city for most of my life, there are a lot of places I’ve never been to. I’ve been wanting to wander through some of the local parks though looking for places where one could do a photo session. My mom suggested I try President Murray Park. President Murray Park is […]
This winter has been pretty weird for most people. Here in Saskatchewan, it’s been really mild for our standards. Okay, we did have a short stint of -30C nights and a couple of good dumpings of snow but overall, it’s been a lovely winter so far. One unexpected perk of this mild weather is that […]
In the summer, while preparing to shoot a major event, I bought several things for my camera. Some were legitimate purchases for the event in question but others were definitely just for fun. This included a set of close-up filters. Macro photography was one of the first things in photography that I really took to […]
It happens sooner or later. The seasons march on and when they do, the season of cold eventually comes to freeze our buns off. So, like busy beavers, we empty our flower pots and pack away our patio furniture. In the midst of all this work, I decided to take one last trip before cleaning […]
After over 2 1/2 months of allegedly waiting for a part, I finally got my car back which means…kayak time! Sure, I could have used my parent’s vehicle but because they have an SUV, I find it hard to hoist Lil Red up there. Especially after a paddle when I’m tired. So the first calm […]
Back in June, I was lucky to be able to shoot graduation photos for two lovely ladies. One of the shoots was at the Forestry Farm Park and Zoo. While they no longer have the peacocks roaming the grounds, the geese were out in full force. While waiting for my client and her family to […]
I wasn’t sure if I would get to do any camping this year. Last year’s solo trip to Cypress Hills proved that I can still adventure on my own but I struggled in part due to the heat. While planning an astronomy event at Pike Lake this summer, I made the decision to camp there […]
A few weeks back, I took my dog Bella to the Crocus Prairie park that’s close to our neighborhood. I had just come home from an in-person jam that I was invited to and Bella started going nuts. She really wanted to go walkies! Despite being so tired and a bit headachey, I thought we […]
This post is coming very late as the local Pride parade was a month ago but as they say, “better late than never!” The first couple of Pride parades that I went to were so much fun but as it has grown over the years, I’ve found it harder and harder to go watch it. […]
