Finding Inspiration in Kelowna

I was out shooting a few photos last night in Kelowna. I haven’t been going out at night as much as I used to. I usually blame my lack of going out on there not being enough city for me to get excited about here. However, I found last night that it doesn’t even matter …

Biking by the Lake

Biking by the lake is just as nice as walking by the lake. Well accept for having to watch out for walkers that is haha. Anyhow, I like this picture because you got the biker zipping by, the lake in the background and more water in the foreground. I think that water in the foreground …

A Night on Knox Mountain

The weather is finally getting warm enough (for me) to go out at night again around here. I took that as my cue to get out and shoot some long exposures. I decided to head up to Knox Mountain Park and see if could come up with any thing good. I brought my dog Juneau …

Floating Leaf

Just another leaf picture from my last video haha. Not exactly an exciting picture I know, but it does have a calming quality to it. When I shot this photo it was honestly on a whim. I just happened to see it floating there while I was filming some b-roll for my last youtube video …

Quiet by The Creek

A few days ago my son Cameron and I were on a bike ride and we dipped into this wooded area to do a little photo location scouting. We found this spot, but at first nothing came to me, I just knew I loved the location. After I gave it some more though later that …

Kelowna Summer Heat

It’s been hot days in Kelowna lately. I’m not complaining though because at least when it’s nice and sunny outside it kind of draws you out, at least it does for me. When it’s super nice I want to be out there doing stuff. However, once the heat starts hitting that 30C/90F mark your options …

The Lights at Night

I shot a photo from this exact spot a couple weeks ago (see that picture here). At the time I didn’t have any longer lenses with me and I thought I’d like to get a shot zoomed in a little closer to this building. All the lights on he building look so nice at night …

Lots of Water

Well there doesn’t seem to be any shortage or whatever around here. I honestly don’t know what the story is with this water coming up out of the ground at the park by my house. I thought it was an odd scene and worth a picture. As for the other picture, well I just shot …

Test Shot

This was just a test shot I took the other night. I’m thinking I will use this location for a portrait shoot. I think it’d be cool to have someone leaning on that railing on the right side the frame. With a person there I’d change up the composition a little, but it would be …

Just made the cut

I wasn’t planning on sharing this picture. I didn’t think it was good enough to be perfectly honest with you. However when I was looking at it trying to decide if I should even toss it on Twitter or not my wife Michelle walked by and told me she like it. I figure if she …

Clock by the Lake

My wife and I went to Peachland BC yesterday. I got a new phone and of course I had to test out the camera. We walked along the beach with our dog and found this beautiful old clock. I know these old style of clocks are somewhat common in old parts of towns and cities …

Canadian Reflection

It was kind of rainy one morning this past weekend in Kelowna and then the sun came out and it was beautiful. When I saw that shinning down on the wet street I had an idea. Find a big puddle and shoot some reflection shots. I would have preferred to shoot these photos with something …

Graffiti Under The Bridge

I was heading out to some random park one day when I noticed this graffiti under the bridge. I figured I’d better climb under there and get a better look. Looks like whoever painted this stuff was pretty good at what they do. When I see good graffiti I often wonder if the painter is …
