If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter you probably already know I bought a new van recently. If not, then ta-daaa! haha. This is my new to me 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia addition. The funny thing is I already have a 87 Westfalia van that I have been working on. I’ve been doing some …

The Van Fits In
I’m a Westy guy, but this Eurovan fits right in with this scene. I was just driving down this street one day and noticed the van. I pulled over and shot a few photos. I actually took this picture a couple months ago, I just forgot all about it. Anyhow, I like the van and …
Going to The Sun Road
I shot this photo a while back when my family and I were driving on the on the “Going to the sun road” in Glacier National Park in Montana. I wasn’t expecting much for the drive but I was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful it was. Now that I’m back in living in British Columbia, …
My 1st Pentax 67 Photoshoot
In early September I had the exciting experience of my first photo shoot using my Pentax 6×7 medium format film camera. I had been waiting on this day for a very long time so my excitement was through the roof. My brother in-law Robert was helping me out by modelling for me. I decided to …
My Favourite Christmas Ornaments 30D
I was sitting in my living room looking at our Christmas tree admiring some of my favourite ornaments. I decided to take some pictures. My very favourite ones are the ones my kids made. They are so special to me because it reminds me of the time when they were a little and came home …
Parked for the winter
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 …
Walk The Dog
My son Joshua was home sick from school yesterday. Actually we are both feeling under the weather at the moment. Rather than just sit inside the house house all day I though it would be good if we got out for a bit. So we hopped in the ol Westfalia and cruised down to a …
Gotham Van
I shot this photo of my van in Calgary not long before I moved. I was waiting for a friend and it had just started raining. As soon as I noticed the rain I jumped out of my van and capped off a few shots. I really love how this photo turned out. The way …
Hello Moon
I was out for a little drive in my Westfalia van the other day shooting some photos. I drove down this road my wife and I took about a week before when we were picking up some new bumpers for my van (not on the van yet). On that first drive I really enjoyed the …
Shy Eagle
Yesterday I went for a little drive south of the city (Kelowna) to see if I could get any decent pictures. I was in my Westfalia van and shot a bunch of pictures of the van and some landscape stuff. I felt like I had got enough photos for the day and started heading home …
Westy by the Water
It’s pretty easy to get a good picture driving around Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada. I pulled off here for a few shots and took so many pictures. I tried a bunch of different angles and most them looked pretty good to me. This shot in particular I felt showed the backdrop quite nicely …
Little Westfalia
I bought this little die cast VW Vanagon Westfalia to take pictures of during the winter months when I can’t take pictures of my real van haha. This is a 1:18 scale model of what looks to be a 1981 or 82 air-cooled Volkswagen Westfalia van. The detail on this model is pretty bang on. …
Christmas Van
Someone gave this awesome Volkswagen Bus Christmas ornament to my wife this year and I love it! I figured if I was going to share a picture of it now would be the time. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and get to enjoy your time with whomever you might be with this …
