Shooting technology and medicine…a couple of my favorite things. This shoot reminded me of my days shooting hi tech for Nortel, Mitel and JDS. We do quite a bit of annual report work, not only in Ottawa but across Canada. It`s challenging stuff photographically, not only from the
technical side but the conceptual side. I love it when I get to solve problems and communicate ideas for my clients.
We finally found some time to update our site…Lots of new images from last years weddings. Enjoy.
Oh…just click on the site in the link above..much bigger images than on the blog and a lot more info.

Wow…I was just informed that this cover shot for Homes and Lands beat out 500 other entries as Best Magazine Cover for Canada. The competition is for architectural photography from across the country…
This is my second win as the top entry….cool.

With the advent of digital photography, clients often ask why there are fees associated with post production. What most people do not realize is that digital cameras, no matter how professional, have inherent weaknesses in sharpness, dynamic range (the ability to capture highlights and shadows in the same scene) and even the correct rendering of color.
The scene above was shot correctly! The screen is exposed properly, but to get the people to an exposure that the eye
captures ( the human eye has an amazing range) one of our trained techs needs to go onto a hi end computer with a color calibrated monitor and do some Photoshop magic.
We employ some of the best Photoshop artists in the city, but occasionally clients want a price to have us let them do the post work… We always say, there is a price for everything in this world and gladly pass this work off to clients.
I am betting most would have a hard time matching what we do..but lets have a little fun. Download the file on the left and go nuts. If you can match or better the one on the right, e it to me and I will post them side by side.
Then I will run a poll and see who gets more votes…Win… and I will donate $500 to the charity of your choice…go ahead, make my day.

It`s the time of the year when we get to go through last years weddings and post some of our faves. Here is one
we worked on today. Thanks to all my FB friends who critiqued some variations and helped me figure out what to do with this shot.

Well something needs to set the NDP race for a new leader on fire…might as well be me.
How do you get 6 Lawyers to smile simultaneously…you need good Lawyer jokes…

This campaign was created for a Canadian cosmetics company and eventually published in International fashion magazines such as InStyle.
Want to see more of my coverage…you will have to join my FB Fan page above for the whole shoot with backstage coverage and all..jpg "Ottawa Fashion Week")
We shoot products like this every week. It is actually one of the most satisfying jobs for us, not because we will win any awards or make a ton of money, but because we like small business people…they really are the salt of the earth!
These are just lunchbags from a little Ottawa company… http://www.greencapp.com/ We like to help out small entrepreneurs because selling in todays world involves competing on the world stage…and for that, you need great shots that show your product.
Good luck Greencap…and those bungee lunchbags are kinda cool.
