An older event that I was just clearing from the hard-drive and backing up this week, I figured I would share some images from a conference I was commissioned to shoot a few months back for CLA in Langley. The event was a faith based missions conference and dessert.
As an almost formal end to the 2012/13, former Boston Bruin, Hall of Fame Goaltender Gerry Cheevers stopped by Langley on a tour of Canada for all sorts of events, which delighted the fans.
Down in Vancouver’s darkest club, or at least one of them lies a 20ft stage with very minimal lighting. Set to Stun, an alternative rock quartet out of Vancouver were playing a gig, opening up for Vancouver heavy-weights Fake Shark Real Zombie. As it was a bit of a big deal, they hired me on to capture the moments that needed to be caught. I was quite happy with what I came away with, and I know they are, as well.
I’ll be honest. It has been a long time since I dusted off the D300 for street photography. I’ve primarily been shooting digital for commercial work only, and most personal projects with film, but I decided to just take it easy and capture some street frames on a camera I may have been ignoring for ‘fun’ work over the last two years.
Italian Day on Commercial Drive is one of the few times a year that they shut down the busy street to cars in favour of hundreds and thousands of people, families, hipsters, and photographers. The event focuses on Italian heritage prevalent in the area, thus you are able to take in all sorts of pastas, deserts, and other italian dishes at the many food carts, booths, and restaurants.
Some more work from L8R Records I was commissioned on over the last few weeks. One show has passed and the other is yet to come.
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes were a pleasure to work with during our photo session, and an extracted version of one of the photos we took during our shoot sits atop the poster
