Lighting Workshop with Dave Hamilton Photography

3 things that make a great Open Image learning experience:

1) One thing about photography is that you can always grow and learn. I called up the very talented Dave Hamilton to see if he could give me some tips and lucky for me, he was able to fit me in.

2) Most of my work is in the mountains, so once in a while it is fun to play around in a downtown environment.

3) I’m excited to experiment with these lighting techniques and some mountain biking? Anyone game to be my model?!?

 

 

Thanks Dave!

Baby Logan River

3 things that make a great Open Image new born session:

1) Adventure! This kid is going to have no lack of adventure in his life! I see a lot of climbing, canoeing, riding, and biking in his future!

2) Good friends. I have been friends with Nat & Geoff for many years now and I am very happy for them both:)

3) Props! Between all of Geoff’s toys and Papa Gene’s antiques, we had a bunch of fun props to play with!

Exloring Fernie – Michelle & Grant

3 things that make a great Open Image engagement session:

1) Fernie Fernie Fernie! I work a lot at the ski hill and was happy that Michelle and Grant wanted to do some photos in town.  Fernie has a fantastic variety of old buildings!

3) Changing it up. A couple of wardrobe changes are always fun:)

 

Snowboarding in Fernie! – Sarah & Justin

1) Sarah & Justin were the winners of my contest with WeddingsinAlberta.com held last summer. Their prize package included; 2 nights accommodation at the 4 star Lizard Creek Lodge, 2 days of snowboarding at Fernie Alpine Resort and an engagement session with me. I was excited when I found out they both love to snowboard and that we could have some fun on the mountain!

2) Lot’s of snow! I love snow:)

3) Colour! Many people know I have a thing for ski wear and Sarah had the perfect outfit for a snowy day!
