I think we in Toronto (and I’m sure elsewhere!) have had our share of rainy weekends this summer. We are almost half way through the month, and then summer will be over. So, not having had the chance to get outside to shoot today, I was going through some older shots that I thought I would post on my blog for fun.
The rainy shots caught my eye, so I posted a few of them:
Shot with a macro lens:
And then a shot of Harry from the last day of school, as I hadn’t posted it as of yet. He’s tricky to catch as he’ll often ham it up if he sees me pointing the camera his way…but he’s hard to resist with that red hair and green eyes! (Of course I didn’t manage to capture a shot of my son on the last day of school…oh well!)
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that they are wrong about the weather forecast tomorrow…hoping for a sunny day for most of the day! (positive thinking!!!!) 🙂
Wow! Those macros are incredible!!!!
Kids and I went to the park for a bit last Monday. Our second trip to the wading pool this summer…but no bunnies this time.
Noah is enjoying his swimming goggles this summer:
Rebecca, wet from the wading pool:
I thought I’d do some lensbaby shooting, since I haven’t shot with it much lately:
Sunflower, that I saw over a fence, so was a bit tricky to shoot…especially with the lensbaby!
Rebecca, with that lensbaby blur:
We came back home and I caught this quick shot of Rebecca while I BBQ’d some sausage for dinner:
After dinner we went back to the park for scootering and skateboarding:
Noah hanging upsidedown from the monkey bars:
Almost home, and caught this shot of Noah with his scooter. I didn’t notice, at the time, what appears to be a reflection on the sidewalk from the lights hitting his scooter…which is the only thing I can think that it could be (???):
Yesterday an old friend from high school was dropping by for a very quick photo, the kids helped me test out the light in the front hallway:
Then Diane arrived and I caught this beautiful shot of her. You may remember her from an earlier blog post as well:
Ok, so I’m caught up for the moment, but sure to have some images from the weekend to share soon! Bye for now!
I did a corporate shoot the other week for GuestLogix, to promote the launch of their Shubert Ticketing system.
Tom and Brett, with the portable ticketing device:
Then we did some individual head shots, here is Brett:
Josef:
And Tom:
Thank you gentlemen, it was a pleasure.
Last Sunday the children and I went with a friend to Kensington Market and met up with a new friend, Jane, and her two children Henry and Sadie. The weather was perfect!
Since it is such a colourful location I decided to really punch the colours up, for fun, in most of the photos.
Here Rebecca holds up a massive sweet potato from one of the outdoor stalls:
Noah watches over Henry as he examines displayed jewelry:
Rebecca also was very good at watching over Henry, as they make their way along the busy sidewalk:
Henry watches his sister in the distance:
We stop for a quick lunch break:
This puppet fellow was so funny! The kids had a great time watching him. Noah was so great with Henry, taking care of him and holding him up to see:
Rebecca, Sadie and Henry check out the puppet:
Noah gets up close and personal with the puppet:
Jane and her kids went home, as it was getting to be nap time, wish they could have stayed for SnoKones…
…and especially the bubbles!
Rebecca takes a break from window shopping, and the bubbles:
So much colour in Kensington Market! Really need to do a couple or a family shoot here I think!
More bubbles!
Noah has a meat paddy for a snack as Rebecca looks on:
Even though he has meat paddy crumbs on his face and shirt, I just LOVE the catch lights in his eyes in this shot:
Will definitely head back to Kensington Market again in the future!
Whenever I hear about outdoor markets, I wish SO much that I lived in a big vibrant city! Your kids look like they had just the BEST time.
And congratulations! I really hope you enjoy the pressure cooker.
It was such a fun day and you captured all the smiles and pretty colours! I can’t wait for our next day out!
