Out & About in Our Neighbourhood: Toronto Family Photographer

Tuesday, June 8, 2010

A recent weekend with the kids, Noah riding his new ripstik, visiting the local ice cream shoppe, hanging out at the park:

(Equipment Used: Canon EOS-1D MarkIV, Canon 70–200 f2.8L IS lens and the Canon 24–70 mm f2.8L lens)

On the way home Noah cooled off in a sprinkler:

I LOVE this series of shots as I feel I can envision the teenager Noah is soon to become:

The next afternoon we started off with an ice cream treat, before heading back to the park:

I was showing Noah how to make a sound with a blade of grass between your hands, then he was off to ripstik some more. Rebecca left, and then returned, and Noah took another break from ripstiking:

Love these last two with the extreme backlighting:

Out & About With My Daughter: Toronto Family Photographer

Wednesday, June 2, 2010

Out and about recently with my daughter, if you look closely (hint, the ears!), you’ll see what her grade 8 graduation gift from me was (the third image shows it):

(Equipment Used: Canon EOS-1D MarkIV and the Canon 85 f1.2L lens.)

We were waiting for friends, on their front porch, to go and check out a local gallery, and I captured a few shots of Rebecca’s purse (that she made) with all her cool buttons. And then a shot of Rebecca and Alison (who I’ve blogged about before, she LOVES Rebecca, see this blog posting from Halloween 2008, 6th photo down, of her with Rebecca) as we walked to the gallery:

Then Rebecca and I went off to the Sewing Studio, so she could finish up her graduation dress. I blogged about the fabric choice for the dress before, and can’t wait to photograph Rebecca in the completed dress:

Alice Update: Toronto Cat Photography

Thursday, May 27, 2010

Haven’t updated the blog with photos of Alice lately, so here’s a bit of a catch-up. 🙂

(Equipment Used: Canon EOS-1D MarkIV and the Canon 85 f1.2L lens.)

I was lucky to be one of the winner’s of Patti Brown’s new Supernatural Texture set, so thought I would put it to use in this blog posting. I applied a few different texture’s from Patti’s set, as well as a frame (from another source):

More textures!

Alice discovered a new spot to hang out, on a shelf (built overtop of the rad), in the bathroom:

Another one with the Supernatural Textures applied:
