Michelle and I were walking down a random street in Playa Del Carmen. It was hot and about coffee time. A guy we stopped on the street told us about this coffee shop. As soon as we walked in I saw this cool sign on the wall and knew I needed a picture. There were …

Milk Run
I had to run out to the grocery store for milk last night. I also knew I needed a picture for today so I had that bouncing around in the back of my head. As I was getting my stuff on to head out to the store I thought of this photo. It’s so random, …
Still Alive
Well the return to this blog has been on my mind for a while. When winter hit I kinda just put my camera down and then had a hard time getting back into the swing of things in the spring. I’ve been shooting photos, not as much as I used to but I have been …
Oilers Self Portrait
I have been setting up a studio in my house for the past little while. I finally got most of it together just in time to shoot a quick self portrait for the start of the Edmonton Oilers season. I didn’t spend too much time on this photo because I just got the studio together …
Who Dat Be?
It’s me, that’s who it is. 😉 I was just walking down this ally way and the mirror at the exit of a parking garage looked like a good hight for a mirror picture. I took the picture and went on my way. Oh and btw, the camera in my had is my favourite! It’s …
Kodak Self Portrait
I made a video testing some different settings using Kodak Gold 200 35mm film. During the test I decided to shoot a little self portrait holding this awesome old Nikon camera I have laying around. The camera is a Nikon L35 AF and is well loved by many. I plan on making a video about …
Box Speed vs Overexposure
I wanted to see how much of a difference there was when overexposing Kodak Gold 200 35mm film. So I made a video out of it. I was testing the difference between shooting at box speed (ISO 200) and ISO 100. The camera I was using in the video is a Canon EOS 3 & …
Looking at Buildings
I went for a little walk the other day to see if I could catch a sunset. Sadly the sunset didn’t really materialize. It was still nice to get out for a walk and shot a bunch a photos, but nothing I was too excited about. This was the last picture I took. I was …
Waiting
I wanted to take a picture like this, but I didn’t have the location. I knew I wanted some lights in the background and I needed some kind of street light to hit me in the front. I drove and walked around Kelowna for about 2 hours before I found this spot. I tried a …
Sunset for One
I needed to get out for a little fresh air the other day, but with all this Coronavirus business that’s going on I didn’t want to find myself around any other people. Lucky for me this little gem of a spot is just a few blocks from my house and I knew this exact spot …
Looking Around Kelowna
I’ve been looking around Kelowna for new photo spots ever since I moved here. Since I am new to the city all the photo spots are new, but I’ve been trying to find the best ones. I should probably just be shooting everything though since I live here and I’ll eventually cover it all haha. …
The Pick Up
So I’m picking up a leaf in this picture, but it was totally set up haha. Also, I was not planning on getting in front of the camera that day, so wardrobe was given zero thought. I prefocused using my manual focus Nikon Ai 50mm f/1.8 using a spot in the sand as an estimation …
Unplanned Picture
I had zero plans on jumping in on a picture last night when I ran out the door to see if I could get a shot by the lake. When I got to my photo location it was already pretty dark (darker than I wanted), but I shot a bunch of photos anyhow. I could …
