2014 Year in Review!!

Guys, it's been a great year! Thank you all for being part of it, for choosing to work with me & trusting in my abilities. From shooting food, to farms, weddings to families, travel to sports, it has been a busy one. It's been a long road since I started three years ago & I wouldn't have learned without a few hard knocks along the way. I am thankful for each & every client & I hope to see all of your faces again. You guys = amazing. I promise to always do my very best to put a smile on your face.

I hope you all have a fantastic holiday season & a very prosperous new year. Let's meet again!

CHEERS!

McGill Track and Field Meet!

My challenge for 2014 is to create a sports portfolio and work on bringing my biggest two passions together. Here is the first sports event I have ever shot, I'm looking forward to many many more. The room was filled with a familiar smell, deep heat and sweat. As I walked around trying not to get in anyones way, a million things were happening. Warm ups, 3000M, high jump, pole vault and long jump while shot putt and hurdles were in the beginning stages. I needed eyes on the back of my head, in the front and in the camera. I decided to just pick a spot for the 3000M and hope for the best. Patience is key, I sat there waiting for what I felt was about to happen and trying to read the persons every move, all the while looking through a small hole. That same person was moving at an intense pace and in a second what I was trying to capture is over, so back to waiting game I went. Frustration sometimes broke in after missing a key moment or because my camera reacted too slowly. Lessons have been learned and I am off out again tonight to see how I get on shooting basketball and tomorrow an ice hockey game.
