  • I wanted to share some photos of the beautiful Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia today – not just to show off this beautiful historic town but also to show two beautiful people – Lloyd and Sharon – the photos they helped us take. I apologize in advance for the lengthy, and image intensive post –…

  • What a busy weekend! It was the perfect weekend – full of family, friends and crafty pursuits. I couldn’t have asked for a better thanksgiving. On Saturday Tito and I drove to a an alpaca farm that he found online – Alpaca Acres in Stratford Ontario. Yes, he sleuthed out an alpaca farm for me and drove…

  • Annapolis Royal is a beautiful small town on the Bay of Fundy – and a historically significant one for Canada as well. The town deserves it’s own post – but today I wanted to focus on highlighting the incredible tides you can see from it’s waterfront. The Bay of Fundy divides the provinces of Nova…

  • I just got back from the east coast and I think I’ve taken some of my best photos ever. I’ve shot Canada coast to coast, and though the mountains in the west coast are lovely, give me the maritime provinces any day; the warmth of the people and the beauty of the landscape are incomparable.…

  • Preparing for another trip – leaving tomorrow morning for the beautiful east coast. I will finally see Nova Scotia, which will leave Saskatchewan as the only province I haven’t shot yet (province, mind you, I’ve got plans for the territories!). At this point, having not seen Nova Scotia yet, it is my humble opinion that…

Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes. Leave us, Helpless. – Neil Young.…

  • I love going to the EX – Tito and I have gone every year since we met – even the year I broke my hand and discovered that rides+broken bones=stupid amounts of pain ;) It’s a million times better than Canada’s Wonderland; no waits for the rides, way cheaper and with a chaotic, old fashioned…

  • I found this beautiful lady in front of the CBC last night; Ok. I’ve been looking for a praying mantis for a long time. I mean, a really long time. Years even. Last night I finally found one – in front of the CBC. Not on the Leslie Street Spit, in the Don Valley or…

  • One of the best photography days in BC – Long beach is a white sand beach on the west coast of Vancouver Island, near Tofino. A heavy fog had rolled in that evening and the beach was deserted. The landscape is eerie; beautiful and desolate. The fog didn’t stop the surfers though, I snapped this…

  • Part of the submission for an exam I’m taking in Karate includes photos of myself – not an easy task since I hate being on the ‘wrong’ side of the camera, I’m picky as hell and very uncomfortable with being photographed. To combat this we went to the Leslie Street Spit – one of my…
