  • I’m not just a photographer as a hobbyist, I’m a legit, professional, award-winning, certified BIG DEAL. S’true. I had a job job before I left it all to chase string. I love my camera. I’ve photographed people, landscapes, aerials, potraits, weddings, and lots of yarn. I built The Blue Brick, in a way, to give…

    As you’ve probably gathered, Tito and I are photographers :) We travel, both within Ontario and around the world (often on shoestring budgets, it can be done!) documenting and being inspired. In my day job I work in a design firm, and my other hobbies include pottery, jewelry and painting.

During the hand painting process, things can get very messy. By reskeining, I am making sure that my skein has…
