3 Year Old Violet

I did a shoot with Violet and her mom last year for her 2nd birthday and I had the pleasure of another shoot for her 3rd birthday! 🙂 The first few shots I used a reflector because the sun was blaring. The reflector really has a nice bit of light that I like a lot …

Fireworks

There is a party that lasts well over a week that goes on every summer in Calgary called the Calgary Stampede. Every night there is a fireworks display that goes and one night I decided to go check it out. Here are a couple of the shots I took that night :). Camera: Canon 6D & 17-40L …

Background Stink Eye

LOL, this picture make me laugh because of the guy in the background giving me the gnarly stink eye! hahaha. I don’t know what his issue was, but that’s his problem haha ;). I shot the photo while at an event here in Calgary a few weeks ago. I guess this girl is some kind …

A Friendly Walk

I shot this photo when I was out at a horse show here in Calgary not to long ago. This shot was rather random as I was just walking by and noticed this girl walking with her horse and snapped a quick one :). Canon T3i & 70-300mm DO IS @200mm ~ f/5.6 – 1/400th …

28mm Manual Focus

I shot this photo with an old Vivitar 28mm f/2.8 Close Focus RL Edition lens. The lens is a Nikon Mount and I got a Nikon to EOS adapter from ebay to use it on my Canon bodies. This lens is crazy sharp wide open and at every aperture. I think it goes with out saying …

Undercover in Calgary

On Saturday night a friend of mine and I went out to shoot some photos. It started ranging like crazy so we had to try to keep shooting under overpasses and covered areas, thankfully there are loads of these to choose from in Calgary. It eventually stopped raining, which allowed me to get the first …

Jumping Joshua

Yesterday evening my son Joshua and I stopped off downtown to shoot a couple of photos. Joshua decided he felt like jumping around, so I snapped a couple of photos of him doing his best Parkour impression 🙂 Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 15mm Fisheye 2.8 ~ Settings: f/6.3 – 1/500th – ISO 800 …

Edmonton

I had to take a little trip up to Edmonton (capital of Alberta) the other day to take care of a couple of things. I haven’t been to Edmonton in well over 10 years and couldn’t remember much about the city. After taking care of business, I walked around taking pictures for a couple of hours and …

My Favourite Bridge

I wouldn’t call this a straight up shot of the Centre Street Bridge in Calgary, but you get the idea. It’s old, has style and is beautiful! Much like my self lol, kidding of course! (I’m not old) LOL ;).  Ok, ok, ok, for real though, this bridge is awesome and when you cross it …

Wakeboarding Downtown Calgary

Yesterday I was out on a little photo mission with a friend of mine and we stumbled upon this random wakeboard jumping event being put on by Samsun Galaxy S5 & Much Music (Canadian MTV). Here are a few photos of the guys jumping and as you can see my camera got a little wet …

Downtown from Nose Hill Park

There is a massive city park in the North West side of Calgary and I took a walk in it yesterday to shoot this photo. It was a little hazy out, but the picture tired out ok. Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 70-300mm DO IS @250mm ~ Settings: f/18 – 1/400th – ISO 1600 …

Filmless Fun

My son and I took at walk down to 7 Eleven yesterday evening to grab a couple Slurpees and I had my camera with me. While we were leaving my son Joshua decided he would take his camera with him too :). He shot a lot of photos while we were walking, however his camera …

Random Trees in the Sky

I was out shooting a house yesterday (for real estate) and decided to get some shots of the park across the street. While I was in the park I randomly decided to point my camera straight up and take a shot. It’s not really my kind of thing, but it’s not bad :). Camera: Canon …
