Back To Fujifilm

by

I decided life would be better with a little Fujifilm back in my life. I picked up this Fujifilm X-T2 for a smoke’n deal from Vistek (a Canadian camera store) and I am so happy I did. If you have been a long time reader of this blog you know I have some experience with …

The Pick Up

by

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 …

She grows so fast!

by

I shot this photo a few weeks ago and I figured I’d better post it before she’s double the size! This little dog is growing at an incredible speed! I love her just how she is, but I wish she could stay a puppy for a little while longer. 😉 Shot on a Sony a7ii …

Parked for the winter

by

I parked the van in my garage last night and it barely fit. Lucky for me the previous owner of my house left these sandbags just sitting by the garage, so I put them in the back of the van and had my kids jump in there too. That extra weight was just enough too …

Juneau Eating Snow

by

The snow has been coming and going recently in Kelowna. Yesterday when I was shovelling the driveway I couldn’t help but notice Juneau having a ball in the snow. I figured this would be a good opportunity to take some pictures of her. When I got back out with my camera she would dig her …

What’s Your Name?

by

I shoot real estate photos from time to time and when I was living in Calgary I shot a lot of real estate photos. As you can image I have met my fair share of random cats and dogs. This cat in particular was quite striking to me and I couldn’t help but shoot a …

Sunset Light

by

Sunset light is so wonderful. I could have pointed my camera in just about any direction on this day and got a good picture. I decided to lay in the leaves and shoot something from the ground. I dont often shoot so low, but I think the leaves in the foreground add something nice to …

Okanagan Lake Sunset

by

I took a look out my front window the other evening and it looked like the sunset might be good. Since I live 3 and half blocks from the beach I though it couldn’t hurt to zip down by the water and see if I could get any good pictures. I was under exposing for …

Unplanned Picture

by

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 …

Well

by

I was out shooting some photos one night with a friend of mine and I was getting pretty board of the pictures I was taking. I thought I’d just hop in some of the shots to shake things up. 🙂 Oh and by the way, this is in no way an endorsement or anything of …

Fujifilm X-E1 & Canon 50mm 1.2

by

I picked up this Fujifilm X-E1 on consignment the other day when I was down at my local camera shop. The body was there for $250, so I thought why not. At that price you can’t really go wrong. The screen has some scratches on it, but that kind of thing doesn’t bother me. I …

Mustachio

by

I was kicking around the Kensington neighbourhood here in Calgary on Saturday night when I spotted this guy on the street. You could see the mustachio pop’n off right away and there was no way I wasn’t going to get a picture. I just walked up to him and said “Hey man, can I take …
