Well, it's been a good experience having this space that I could transform into a studio for a while. I had hoped there'd be plenty of people dropping in to get portraits done, but tbh it wasn't a great turnout; maybe the wrong time of year … maybe I need to improve my advertising/marketing skills... probably both.
Either way, learning experience I guess. As planned, I sent in a donation to the local food bank today, 1/4 of the proceeds from my time at the space. Here are some images from one of my favourite photoshoots there; one of my friends from the Sunshine Coast, Gabriel, needed actor’s headshots done. I really like the way these turned out.

A couple local friends, Nicole and Misha, dropped by the pop-up studio to act as test subjects a few days ago. It’s always a treat to photograph people who are this relaxed, casual, and playful in front of the camera. They even brought along the bokken swords they've been carving. I'd never met any Samurai on the Coast until now 🥷.

A Throwback to earlier this summer, I shot some portraits for local ( ) country/folk singer/songwriter
I had access to a space where I could set up a temporary studio for a couple days. And it was so nice to have the space to spread out and set up a big seamless paper backdrop, and my strobes that hadn’t been used in way too long.
Aaaaand here’s something exciting… I have access to this same space for the next couple weeks, and my set up is ready to go; I’ll be offering headshots and portrait sessions, starting tomorrow 😊 📸

This was one of my favourite portrait photo sessions from a few years back. Sindi wanted a variety of shots from formal business look to artistic/creative. My living room at the time was perfect for setting up a DIY photo studio. Loved the way these shots turned out.

Had a great time dropping by this studio in Gibsons a few days ago. Dave the barber, and Holly the RMT just opened their studio recently, and are taking on new clients; they wanted to update their headshots, and get a variety of shots for social media. Always nice to work with models who are comfortable in front of the camera, including this dapper young fellow who had dropped in for a trim.

It was about this time of year (cherry blossom season) a few years back, had a great outdoor photoshoot with this lovely Jennifer, in & around Vancouver's Chinatown.

It's fun to see Vancouver like this, although I'm glad it's only about once a year ⛄️

Days like today, I love my commute up the Sea-to-Sky highway. (I usually try to time it so that I'm near the water at sunset :-)
