Fly fishing Westbank

A lovely day along Bear Creek. Some great photos, a few tangles, a bunch of laughter.

Sara and Matt

This weekend I had the pleasure of working with Erica Cross at the wedding of Sara and Matt; a wonderful crowd, beautiful couple and lovely weather – a real pleasure. I wish you all of the best, Sara and Matt. Thank you for sharing your most special day with me!

Delightful

Sarah and I had the great pleasure of spending the long weekend with some family and friends. Thank you all for such a wonderful visit.

Been travelling – San Francisco and Berkeley

Brother Brian is working hard at his PhD from University of California, so I took a few days to visit him and tour the cities in the area. Touring the area mostly by foot; we had some great fun and a few laughs. Thanks Brian, keep up the good work there at Cal!

trails of Westbank

As part of the ongoing work for Westbank Tourism, Rose and I spent some time yesterday working in the Gellatly Nut Farm and along the trails of Power’s Creek. We got some beautiful shots along the lakeshore, in the trails of the farm and along the creek. Thank you Rose, you are a delight to work with.

Summer issue of Okanagan Life Magazine

I met and photographed two wonderful people yesterday. Jenine Stickler owns and operates Lamps-a-Lot in Westbank. They take lamps that are destined to dust collection or worse and turn them into funky little treasures. Carol Jackson saves books from being destroyed and offers them for free from her garage. Reuse, wonderful. Thank you Jenine. Thank you Carol.

horsing around

While in Vancouver over the past few days one of the things that I worked on was developing images for a project on horse culture. I want to focus on the intimate moments, the scenes that we, as outsiders, rarely glimpse. Justine, a close friend of Sarah and I, volunteered some of her time to work with me. Justine is a professional rider and trainer, the most perfect subject that I could ask for. Thank you Justine!

Disconnected until the 23rd

I have been doing some ongoing work for the Westbank Chamber of Commerce – I’ll leave you with a little flavor from work done in this past week - some action shots mixed with high dynamic range landscapes . . .




Come back on the 23rd to see what I’ve been up to now!

Okanagan Life Magazine – June Issue

This project was a great bit of fun. The upcoming issue is all about big ideas and my job was to illustrate a number of these ideas.
A few of the ideas needed now (green roofs, cooperation, a superhero, the need for more sleep, rapid transit) + a couple of great kids (Adrian and Talia) = creative delight!











Thanks guys!

Rainmakers' Finale

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Rod Butters, co-owner and head chef of Fresco Restaurant here in Kelowna.


Rod is a creative thinker and artist, a real pleasure to work with. Thanks Rod!
