I had the idea for this shot for one reason, to show off the cool looking Canon A-1. I think the A1 looks extra cool with the grip attached to it, so I was thinking of how I could get a good picture with the camera being the main focal point and not just have …

Summer Skyline
I shot this one back in early September and then forgot about it haha. I was driving by this little park on my way to a photo shoot when I saw a hill I could probably get a shot from. Since I had plenty of time to get to my shoot I decided to make …
4th Street Lights
The lights that line 4th Street in Calgary are wonderful at night. I wish all the streets looked like this. For this shot I had waited till some cars were waiting for the light to change, that way the street wouldn’t just be streaks of light. When shooting long exposures on the street it’s hard …
Pre-Focus Run
I like getting pictures of people running from this part of the city. The skyline background just does it for me somehow. On this day I posed a bit of challenge to myself. I wanted to get a shot of someone running, well, , , a woman running, because people like pictures of women running …
Permanent Gaze
I hit the streets on Saturday night and found my self at City Hall. I shot a few different photos before I wandered over to this horse statue. I though full body might be cool, but I decided to go for just the head and show more detail. Another plus for getting in closer is …
Commuting Calgary – Canon FD
I have been on a bit of vintage lens kick lately. I recently got my hands on a Canon FD 80-200mm f4 SSC. This is the first test shot I took with the lens on my Sony a7ii. The combination of these old Canon lenses on the a7ii is awesome and super fun to use. …
1000th Instagram Post!
I hit my 1000th post on Instagram yesterday! I though I’d do something a little fun for that post and put this picture together. I shot the photo with my Sony A7ii & 24-70mm sitting on a railing on a 10 second, 5 shot sequence timer. I sent the picture straight to my phone and …
Sitting Around The East Village
I was down in the East Village of Calgary over the weekend. I was taking pictures of the river off the boardwalk when I decided to try out one of these chairs. I figured if I was gonna grab a nice little seat for my self I might as well shoot another photo while I’m at it. …
Colourful Night
I took the streets of the East Village last night. I ended up down by the river on St. Patricks Island to grab this shot of the Skipping Stone Bridge with a very colourful city in the background. The lights on the water look pretty cool too. Thanks for stopping by, Rob
Music Video
Some of you might remember me mentioning I was going to be shooting a music video for a guy this summer (this guy). I have finally finished it. It was my first crack at music video and I think turned out alright. I didn’t realize how much work it was to get a whole video …
Island Among Towers
Here is a shot of the Calgary skyline with a nice view of Princes Island up front. Princes Island is a wonderful city park, with lots of trees, trails, bridges and plenty of open spaces to enjoy a picnic or just hang out with a bit of nature in the city. The modern Calgary skyline …
Fetch
I was driving by this park the other day and I had never seen it before. As I drove I could see it was rather hilly, so I decided to take a little drive around to see if there was any good photos to be had. I landed on this location and thought I might …
Above the Calgary Skyline
On friday evening I had some family in town and my father in-law was really interested in the DJi Phantom 3 Professional quadcopter I have. I decided to take him out and give him a little denomination of the unit. While we were flying it I shot this photo of the Calgary Skyline. This picture …
