Laura

Laurel loves sketching and photography so we did a little bit of tech talk during her session! Laurel's quiet nature comes through in her images but a sense of complexity is also very strong. She may have a tough time deciding which direction to follow in life as I sense she will have many options and interests. You go girl!

Andrea

Andrea and Tamera have been friends since grade nine so it was great she could come for the fashion photo session Tamera set up. Andrea loves style and dresses and moves like a model with ease in front of the lens. My poodle, Mozart was thrilled to pose with her as he tries to be in all the portraits taken at the studio. All the best Andrea!

Tamera

Tamera and her friends had their make up done at the studio for their fashion photo session to commemorate graduation and the start of a new life. Tamera loves drama, music and art. She has a flare all her own and I wish her all the best in her future endeavors! Keep watch - more to follow.

Mexico Convention

One always learns from every workshop, every seminar, every session and every subject photographed. But one also learns from being on the other side of the camera. It is important to remember how it feels to have your photograph taken and to learn how other photographers put people at ease. So, in these images I am the subject not the photographer. Instructor Anthony Cava of Photolux Studios in Ottawa took the photo of me against the blue wall and Friend and Photographer Linda Senychych of Photography by Linda, Calgary took the rest of the images.

Destination Weddings

Destination weddings have really taken off! And most savy couples hire a photographer they trust rather than going with one that may be available through the resort. We learned from the best how to handle bright mid day sun and how to create beautiful light where there may be none, like in a reception or at night.

Fashion Class

What a great workshop on fashion! The Cava brothers did a wonderful job demonstrating how to work with light outdoors and create beautiful images.

This is the last bunch of travel images. Then on to fashion, which was another workshop.

The Professional Photographers of Canada - Alberta had a destination convention! What a blast! Wonderful food, weather and workshops. The Cava brothers presented on Travel and the next two posts are shots from Playa Del Carmen, south of Cancun. The culture and the colour of Mexico.
