It was William’s first hunt. William’s cousin gave him his old compound bow, and he’s been practising all year with it. He got his hunting license and our friend Kevin took us with him to try to bag a couple of deer. It’s difficult at best, and we didn’t get anything with the bows, but […]

Sometimes friends just have to do stuff together. My daughters have a great pair of friends that live just across the street from us. They are all just awesome girls.

I photographed Bella and her family last year. She’s still a bit shy to start, but it didn’t take her long to warm up to the camera.  I mostly gave her some distance and again encouraged her to play.  Being a little older now, she responds more to direction. Glenmore Park on the North side […]

A sunny lunch hour stroll with friends around Prince’s Island Park made for fun photographic adventures. One of our goals was to get some softer, long-exposure shots of the river. The bright sun made it difficult to slow down the shutter, even with a polarising filter. I managed some nice shots of the fountain as […]

Rexburg, Idaho is a neat town.  It’s a bit out of the way for someone just travelling through since it lies a fair bit East of the I-15 heading South to Idaho Falls.  If you’re headed to Yellowstone, you may want to drop in and take in some of its charm. Travelling to Rexburg takes […]

I had a great day for shooting Hoar frost.  A friend and I took advantage of a sunny noon hour to take some photos in the parking lot.  The bright sun caused the South facing frost on the sides of the trees and bushes to melt, while the still frigid air maintained the North facing […]

Christmas is a great time for photos. Our family spent Christmas in a cabin on Mt. Baldy, near Oliver, B.C.. It gave me a lot of opportunity to get out into the snow and take a few photos. I particularly wanted to play with HDR, and I was delighted to find a few subjects that […]

I had an exciting opportunity to be with Brent and Carol when they were married in Regina Saskatchewan. We had considerably better weather than at their engagement photo shoot. Also, after so much driving last month, the trip to Regina didn’t seem as long as it might have. We only spent about an hour at […]
