Anne Marie
These are from a shoot I did back in June. I finally got some paper backdrops mounted and I wanted to play around with colours. The model is Anne Marie, and the makeup and hair were both done by Elisa Doyon-Vachon. Fun with hair! There are a few more on Flickr. I’m heading to Scotland [...]
G20 Protests in Toronto
Wow, what a day. The G20 summit is being held in downtown Toronto this weekend. Today, there was a “peaceful demonstration” planned. Approximately 4,000 people would meet at Queen’s Park, walk down University to Queen Street, then head West on Queen to Spadina, and then back up Spadina to Queen’s Park. You can view all [...]
Movie Posters
Happy Monday! Here are some recent movie posters created with my images. This is from An Insignificant Harvey, which may be released later this year! Possibly. I hope. The Deaths of Chet Baker aired on Bravo!FACT recently. It’s a really good short directed by Robert Budreau and starring the amazing Stephen McHattie. Of course, Kenneyville. [...]
Everybody Panic!
It has been a while! I have approximately one million new pictures to add to my site. I’ll start with this: Toronto Fringe Festival starts at the end of June! I recently did some pictures for a sketch comedy group called Apocalypse Later. Their show is called Everybody Panic! Here’s the description: Marcel Dragonieri, Jocelyn [...]
Automatic Toys
Here are some pictures from a band photoshoot I did … wow, two Saturdays ago now. Time flies! The 2-man band is called Automatic Toys (Myspace, Facebook) and they got in touch with me because they were throwing together a last minute music video shoot and wanted me to do some still photography. It was [...]
Kenneyville: Day 2
Here are some behind-the-scenes movie stills from Day 2 on set of Kenneyville! On Friday we filmed in a creepy barn in Cobourg, Ontario. It was a really cool set, and Sean Samson was there as a Makeup FX Consultant. He just finished working on Saw VII, and built a drill so we could [...]
Kenneyville: Day 1
I’m back on the set of Babe with a Sword, only now it’s called Kenneyville. We’re spending 4 days this month filming new scenes. The film originally wrapped last September, and you can see some behind the scenes shots from phase 1 of shooting here. Yesterday, we filmed at a motel in Shelburne, ON [...]
Your Heart: Works in Progress
I had another photoshoot with Your Heart on Wednesday night. They’ve grown since I took pictures of them last September: Now there are 8! It was hard to find a time for everyone to get together, and if you live in Toronto, you may recall that it was raining for most of this week. [...]
Alyson + Emma’s Wedding
A lot of people have pointed out that I never posted more pictures from Alyson & Emma’s wedding last summer. On a personal note, wow, my photography has changed so much in less than a year. I learned a lot at this wedding.
March Update
Busy busy busy! I haven’t updated in a long time – again – but I wanted to write a quick update about what I’ve been up to. Booking weddings for 2010! I’m only booking a handful of weddings this year, and so far each and every one of them is going to be fun and [...]
February Family Portraits
I haven’t posted in over a month (!) so I wanted to add some new family portraits. I met Kathryn at a holiday party in December, and this past weekend I went over to her place to take some pictures of her adorable boys. After taking a few pictures at home, we headed over to [...]
SidePonyNation
Happy New Year! Before the holidays, the Toronto Strobist Group met in the studio for a fun shoot. My job ended up being to organize our models for the day, so I put up an ad on Craigslist and found these two girls. They’re in a band called SidePonyNation, and they were hilarious. So much [...]
Maria
I have a massive backlog of pictures to post. I’ve been spending a lot of time shooting and even more time editing. Here are some more from my Photography of People portrait photography class. This time last year, I had literally zero interest in studio photography. I was all about candid portraits in natural light. [...]
Ben & Andrew
I have been meaning to post more pictures from my “Photography of People” class (see: Danica and Daniel). This is Andrew: This is Ben: These pictures were taken at the end of September, which feels like a million years ago. I am finally making my way through my editing backlog, hooray!
Daniel
Here are some more pictures from my class at George Brown College. This is Daniel Mais, a great model who also happens to be a very talented photographer!
Toronto Zombie Walk 2009
Here are a few pictures from the 2009 Toronto Zombie Walk, which occurred this afternoon. I’ll be adding more to Flickr very soon! You can see last year’s pictures here.
Danica
I’m taking a night class at George Brown College called “Photography of People”. Each week, we take turns working with different models and lighting set-ups. One of last night’s models was Danica Kotsopoulos, a jazz singer. She was fantastic, and it was only her first time modelling! Here are some pictures: I’m catching up on [...]
Chelsea + Eric’s Engagement
I had an engagement photography session with Chelsea & Eric and their adorable daughter Lila this past weekend. The day started out as a little bit of a disaster, because our location was completely packed! I got there about half an hour early and drove around, got lost, pulled over onto a side street, and [...]
The Wedding Gift
I have a lot to update about, including a new website and logo, more Babe with a Sword stills, a picture in the Globe & Mail, and lots of studio work! For now, I’d like to share some movie stills I did for a short film called The Wedding Gift, directed by Naomi Ward and [...]
iStockPhoto: September ’09 Update
I’ve been very busy recently on a number of things, from meeting awesome models and makeup artists to taking a class on portrait photography to getting ready to work on a feature film. I’ve also been putting more time into building my iStockPhoto portfolio. Here are some of my recently accepted images. These are all [...]
Your Heart: The Band
Yesterday was the Your Heart show I’ve been talking about. It was awesome! Before the show, the band and I took a walk around the venue and took some quick pictures. The album was released yesterday, and you can check it out here.
Your Heart: Night Lights
I posted about Andrew and “Your Heart” yesterday. Here are some pictures we took the other night for his show/album promo. There are more pictures on Flickr. These pictures were taken in a nearly pitch black schoolyard with a bare SB-600 flash on a stand camera right.
