Photo-shoot with Jenna Mack

Last week we did a fantastic (but really cold) photoshoot with Jenna Mack for her new website. We didn’t really plan anything we just grabbed some stuff and shot before the rain came back.

I Am Totally Loaded In Cuba Right Now So You Still Get This Pre-Recorded Content

I am currently basking on a warm beach with a cold Bucanero in my hand & well if you are reading this you’re not. Now because I am in the wondrous land of overly complicated internet, I am going to future post a few things for you all to read/look at while I am gone.

 

These photos are from a parkade at Granville island.

Parking Lots Are More Awesome When Abondoned

I was on a boat

But not a glamorous boat like you may be thinking. I was instead on a rather unglamorous BC Ferry from Galiano Island where we happen to have a nice midweek wedding. The island was glorious in it’s hippy laid back fashion and I came home one step closer to being refreshed & smelling adequately like petiole oil. :)

Yup Time For An Epic Post!

So in typical jerk fashion I am going to make a feeble attempt to make up for months of sporadic posting with one long post filled with many photos and few words!

This morning I couldn’t sleep so I decided that I should go for a long walk. I took my RB67, 5D, a bunch of film, and a light meter and off I went. here are some of the Digital shots. The film will come someday

It wasn’t cold out but these birds sorta look cold.

I heart this train yard. I am glad we are still close where we are moving to.

It often seems like there is more effort put into the scaffolding on these “lets pretty up our city” projects then the pretty project them selves.

Interesting note on this. That curb is askew like that because I accidentally pushed it out of the way with the Xterra. We were shooting a portrit session with a couple which is why I parked there.   When we left I drove forward pushing it askew like it is. Just a note about how sign of the things we do are always about us!

I have taken 75 billion photos of this silly fountain and this is by far the first one I liked.  Something about it always brings me back to shoot it again but until now this is the first one I have enjoyed.

I had turned around to take photo of the empty cross walk when I saw the shadow and the feet I grabbed it instead :)

A Random Wall On Granville!!

We are off to the tomahawk for breakfast! So here is a parting gift! Random wall in a random parking lot that happens to also have a bird reserve or something under a billboard! Again from the I was searching for a camera strap that doesn’t say CANON DIGITAL in bright red letters walk.

After wanting a Medium format camera for years I bought a used Mamiya RB67 complete with a Polaroid Back! Last night I went out and took some long exposures with Polaroid film :)

I can also shoot regular film but that isnt nearly as fun as this :)
