Conference Board Gala
Earlier this month, I was again privileged to be the portrait photographer at The Conference Board of Canada’s staff Holiday Party. Held at the Canadian Museum of Nature, it was a tremendous night of fine food and dancing. Here are a few sample portraits.
Awesome gourmet cupcakes!
Delicious photo shoot this week with treats from Cupcake Scientist Sonya Deveau!

Frank, Jen and Joey
Last year, Frank and Jen invited me to photograph their new son, Joey, on his one-month birthday.
Well, that 4 week-old is now 20-months old, so I was delighted when Frank called to invite me to update their family album. The arboretum at the Central Experimental Farm is a great spot to spend a sunny fall afternoon and Joey (and all of us) loved having a chance to play in the leaves.
Bethann & Henry
I’ve been away from this page far too long – though not for a lack of shooting!
Bethann and Henry invited me to photograph their wedding back in August – and we had a great day for it, even though the skies threatened rain all afternoon. In fact, it poured rain all through the ceremony! Everyone was warm and dry inside the beautiful St. Matthew’s Anglican Church, though, and when the newlyweds emerged, the humidity had eased a little and the sunshine had returned. It was a geat day – and a lot of fun! These two know how to throw a party!
Grad portrait
Here are a few shots from last week’s portrait session with Morgan – Grade 6 graduate!
Congratulations, Morgan!
Kelly and Cliff – May 28, 2011
All week it had threatened to rain on Kelly and Cliff’s wedding, but by early afternoon the drizzle had moved off, allowing for a beautiful ceremony at Rockliffe Park and photo session on Parliament Hill. Such a pleasure to work with this awesome couple! Congratulations Kelly and Cliff!
Mmm…blueberry jam
Though weddings and portraits make up the bulk of my work, I occasionally have the opportunity to try something a little different. It’s always interesting to do an architecture shoot or photograph a restaurant for its web site and menu. Of course, one of the perks of photographing food is sampling the dish when the shoot is done! Another food shoot this past weekend had me longing for summer weather and blueberry season.
Film noir style portrait
Maybe I watched too many old movies over the holidays, but I found myself experimenting in the studio this week with some lighting styles that I don’t often get to use in my usual family and business portraiture. This low key portrait is bit different than my recent posts.
Formal portraits for the holidays
I was delighted when The Conference Board of Canada invited me to be the portrait photographer at their holiday party earlier this month. It was an unforgettable evening of dining and dancing. Here are a few samples from a truly elegant night!
