These are from a photography workshop I took a few years ago shooting models downtown.
Quidditch
One Sunday after brunch, Sarah and I stumbled into the poorly-attended Fantasy Faire festival in Kensington. The now-defunct Fantasy Faire was the unsuccessful rebrand of Kensington’s Harry Potter Festival after Universal Studios sent cease & desist letters to unlicensed Harry Potter-themed festivals around the world. These photos are from a quidditch match put on by […]
Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump
Last year, Sarah & I drove out to Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump, a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose history goes back approximately 11,000 years. We hiked along the interpretive trail where I took these photos.
Skyline Luge
On my first trip to New Zealand, Sarah took me to Skyline Luge in Rotorua. It was my first time downhill karting and we had a lot of fun that day. Sarah grew up in Rotorua so imagine her surprise when she discovered that Skyline Luge was also here in Calgary at COP. You can’t […]
Ralph Klein Park
Sarah & I spent an afternoon wandering around Ralph Klein Park. Even though Kodak UltraMax film is considered to be ‘consumer’ film, I quite like its color palette. I was happy with the way these turned out.
Scarecrow at Angel’s Cafe
I shot this one weekend outside Angel’s Cafe before taking a photowalk in Edworthy Park.
Screen Time
These were shot using my Ikimono Flash 110 camera by Superheadz. Sadly, this camera has a significant flaw. It often fails to stop on the next frame when advancing frames after a shot thereby skipping frames and wasting film.
Jericho Beach Walk
Sarah and I took a walk along Vancouver’s Jericho Beach last summer. The haze in the background is from BC forest fires.
Trip 35 Studio Test
I recently bought an inexpensive hot shoe to PC sync adapter that allows me to use many of my film cameras with my studio strobes. I made Sarah pose for me while I tested it with my Olympus Trip 35 and took this photo.
Rollerblading the Seawall
Last summer, Sarah and I decided to rollerblade the Stanley Park Seawall while we were in Vancouver visiting family.
Myra Canyon
Last summer, Sarah & I rented some mountain bikes and rode along the Kettle Valley Railway in Myra Canyon near Kelowna, BC. I took many photos that day and these are the few I shot with my Lomography La Sardina Splendour camera.
Jericho Beach
This is the pier at Jericho Beach. It may look like typical Vancouver cloudy weather, but that is in fact smoke from the BC forest fires last summer.
