Just from a walk to gastown the other day.




Well the News at 11 was an hour late but here you all are. Today as I said before I went up a mountain with a new model Michelle. I had a snowy forest idea and Sarah Bergeest was able to work her magic in the makeup & hair department! They both were troopers dealing with ridiculous amounts of snow and rain, as well as having a good time! (that’s hard to do without a snowboard under ya. ) I wish I had a video crew to follow us around because dealing with the 10ft of snow was hilarious and should been seen!!! I say 10ft mostly because I don’t know!! I kept sinking to my waist and not touching the ground so who knows how far that went!!! Anyway here is a photo
As you know I have been going through the archives of the institute as of late, and I came across a photo shoot that I did in 2004 that I have never even looked at! I feel like Garry Winogrand lately taking photos and not looking at them, but what can you do really. So ya this was a shoot that we did in studio as well as on a snowy golf course in an Alberta November! I ended up getting fairly busy and going though this shoot got back burnered untill today.
As my loving M said yesterday “it has been four years since we have had a life” Its funny that concept of time to do things for the sake of doing them as apposed to a means to an end. well anyway I am going to try and find some photogenic snow so enjoy.

A new shot form the last shoot with Melissa.

I was searching through old film and I found this! This was taken on my old Mamiya M645 1000s. Its funny to say that a 6×4.5cm look really small compared to the 6X7cm of the Mamiya RB67
So we were just down at the beach for a wicked trash the dress session (see the BOP blog for photos) and miranda had the forsight to rent a Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L USM Prime lens that we have been meaning to try. GOOD GOD IS IT A SWEET LENS!!!!!
