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 …

Canon vs Sony 70-200mm

I have been shooting a decent amount with my Sony a7R these days and I have run into some auto focus speed issues along the way. I have found that Sony’s hit rate of moving subjects is noticeably lower than what I have been used to with my Canon gear. This issue rang especially true …

A Beautiful Bridge & Park

This is part of Riverfront Park in front of the Monroe Street Bridge in Spokane, Washington. It looks a little hazy because smoke from some forest fires was just starting to clear up. I really love old bridges like this and I love this part of the park because there are loads of places to hang out …

Lake of the Stars

Last thursday night I took a little trip to the mountains in and effort to escape the city lights. With me being an urban type of guy, this is some what out of character for me. However, I do enjoy a bit of fresh air and a starry sky from time to time and I have …

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 …

Twin Sheds

I was driving in the country one day when I zipped by these random sheds in this field. I kept on driving a little ways when I decided it might make a good picture. A quick stop and U-turn later I was walking through these strange bushes trying not get my shoes dirty haha. The …

Wedding by the River: Mal & Jay

I shot Mal & Jay’s wedding last weekend and it was a beautiful day for it! I started my day off at Mal’s house to get some shots of her and the girls while they got ready. When I arrived everyone was in good spirits and clearly having fun. After some fun shots with the …

Run Over The Skipping Stone

I went out and shot some photos last night with a friend of mine (guy ruining my picture at the bottom of the frame haha). We walked around St. Patrick’s Island here in Calgary looking for some good shots with the city in the background. I took only two lenses with me, my 300mm 2.8 & …

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 …

Abandoned Water Park

I was shooting a house in Chestermere (20 min east of Calgary) a couple of weeks ago when I noticed some water slides across the highway. I drove over after my shoot to check them out, but there was not entrance to be found. Eventually I came across some old beat up fence with an …

Portrait – Ian

I did a photo shoot on Sunday with a musician I have been working with. His name is Ian and I am going to be filming a music video for him this summer. We needed some stills for a couple things, so we did a quick shoot and got the thing done. I’ll keep you guys …

Skateboarding in Airdrie

I was skateboarding at a skate park in a town 10 minutes north of the city yesterday. While I was there I noticed this guy skating one of the hand rails there and he was landing everything he tried. Prefect candidate to shoot a few photos of, so I asked him if that was cool. …
