Last year I had the pleasure of being commissioned to cover the Importfest event. This is an annual car show where all types of car enthusiasts bring their wheels to try to win a piece of the pie and obtain bragging rights in the tuner community. I was again invited this year, but unfortunately the […]
As the cruise ship arrived in Venice, I had come to terms that I would not get to visit the beautiful city after all. Because our ship arrived at the port at 9am and the flight back to Toronto was at 1pm, it was impossible to get the couple to the canals to do one […]
Imagine that as a backdrop for your formal wedding photos. It was a dream come to life for the couple just a few days ago. With 24 people in the bridal party I knew it would be a huge challenge, but my ambition and images of the shots I could get with 24 people in […]
Today I landed in Istanbul, Turkey. A place I have not visited in 21 years and a place that I have always wanted to come back to photograph. My day started extremely early with the couple. We started with some urban style photography. Graffiti walls and a gorgeous backlit staircase. We then moved on to […]
Today I arrived in Izmir, Turkey. I had done exactly zero research on this city so I did not know what I was in for. So far, it has been the highlight of my trip to Europe. I started my day with a walk from the port along the waterfront to the Bazaar. Along the […]
Today I visited a place that I have always wanted to see. Olympia, Greece, the birthplace of the Olympic Games. The games were started thousands of years ago to honour the strongest people of both mind and body. I wandered the ruins, wondering what life might have been like 2,800 or so years ago. It […]
As I landed in Venice yesterday, I could see Saint Marks square from my window on the plane. I am in Italy, shooting my second destination wedding of the season. I have shot some unbelievable weddings, but I think this one takes the cake. 60+ people were flown eight hours around the globe, whisked off […]
After the day I just had driving the coast with 9 exotic cars, I guess you could say I am a little shell shocked. The speed limits posted on the PCH are just not cutting it for me. I have driven sports cars all of my life, so I like to push my car to […]
As I made my way out of San Francisco and down the pacific coast highway, it was a little chilly but I did not come all this way to drive the PCH with the top up. I donned a hoodie, cranked the heat and sucked it up. I was only about 20 minutes into the […]
Ahhh, San Francisco… I love this city. Its such a gorgeous place to photograph and it has something for everyone. It is a place with great food, beautiful scenery and very vibrant people. You could spend a week just photographing the buildings alone, and then there is the bay, the Golden Gate Bridge and the […]
The last time I drove the coast of California, I was rushed and I didn’t get to see it in the detail that I wanted. By the time I had reached Hearst Castle coming south down the PCH, it was closed. This time around I was not going to let this happen. This place definitely […]
Without a doubt, this has been my busiest wedding season to date. I had a few weeks free in August so I decided to get away and relax while doing some more portfolio work. Destination… California! My first stop was Los Angeles, where as luck would have it, the US Open of Surfing was being […]
