Trooper and Loverboy play at the Whistler Olympic Plaza

Thursday, December 1st, 2011

It was a wet, cold and frankly miserable night but that didn’t stop 500 or so Loverboy and Trooper fans from heading out to Whistler’s awesome Olympic Plaza for a great show.  The plaza pavillion is totally undercover so once the fans were in they could dance and sing to their hearts content – and they did!

I was there to document not so much the bands themselves as the venue and the lighting.  It was a fun shoot, and I’m more and more impressed every time I go.

Here are a few of my favourite shots:

Whistler Olympic Plaza

Friday, October 14th, 2011

I was commissioned by the RMOW to shoot images of their great new venue – the Whistler Olympic Plaza.  This was the first time they had showcased their winter outdoor/indoor set up.  With a small stage at the rear they can accommodate up to 600 standing viewers, or they can put in a set of chairs for a more formal arena.  With two large green rooms, amazing lighting and sound set up, lounge areas, a fireplace and concession area, this really is one of my favourite legacies from the Olympics.  Love it!

Colin James in Whistler

Sunday, August 14th, 2011

Colin James played live and with free admission last night as part of the “Whistler Presents” summer concert series at the Olympic Medals Plaza.  He was awesome and the crowd was large and having fun.  I just love that classic R & B sound!

More music for the next two weekends.  Check it out!

Wizard of Oz by Stagecoach Theatre Arts

Wednesday, June 22nd, 2011

This year’s end of term production by Stagecoach Theatre Arts for the Commercial Drive and Kitsillano schools was “The Wizard of Oz”.  It was adapted by Hilary Smith, the owner / operator of Stagecoach Canada to fit in with the schools differing ages and abilities.  Interest was so high from parents and grand parents that they had to do two performances on Saturday and another on Sunday. The “Cultch” Theatre was packed for all three performances!

Awesome job by everyone involved.  Here are a few of my favourite images.  All images can be viewed & purchased on my web site.

Christmas concert in Haute-Nendaz

Sunday, December 19th, 2010

Having not much else to do and being somewhat interested anyway, I slip-slided my way down to the local church this evening to see a performance of a Christmas concert,  played by a 30 piece local brass band.  It was really very good.  All the announcements were in French, of course, so I understood about one word in 20 but I did hear the announcement that they would be serving “vin chaude” – mulled wine – afterward.  Of course I had to sample that!  T’was a merry time – Merry Christmas to one and all!

Four days of crazy hippie shenanigans,  with music,  fun, new friends and a tiny bit of alcohol.  It’s hard to pick the ‘best’ photos from the weekend but the following are a few that to me, represent the festival perfectly.

The entire 2010 gallery (some 450 images) can be viewed by clicking here.

If you were at Hornings in 2007, those images are here.

Mostly I shot these photos for the fun of it, but if you would like to buy a print then please contact me.  Print costs are 5×7 $10; 8×10 $15; 10×15 $20 + shipping $2.50  The file number is at the top of each photo.

365 Project – Day 261

Sunday, July 4th, 2010

Canada Day in Whistler lasted for three days this year in an attempt to re-live the Olympic experience.  It was fun, but the weather was bad.  The highlight for me was in seeing Delhi to Dublin play again.  As their name suggests, it’s a mixture of Irish fiddling with Indian drum and sitar, with some DJ stuff thrown in.  Awesome music and super fun to watch.
