365 Project – day 89
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010365 Project – Day 88
Tuesday, January 12th, 2010This was my first camera – the ‘revolutionary’ Canon A1: the first 35mm camera to automatically set the aperture when you set the shutter speed. Taking a photo of it was harder than you imagine, especially with just one flash. Ultimately, to get some light onto the lens of the A1 I also used a reflector.

Rachel & Martin – January 8th 2010 – Fairmont Chateau Whistler
Monday, January 11th, 2010Rachel and Martin were perhaps the most fun couple I have met yet – largely because Martin was such a joker. Over from the UK for the ceremony they had just a small wedding party as some of the friends and family couldn’t make it.
The Fairmont is such a beautiful location for a wedding – from the chapel on the roof, through the ballroom corridors, lounges and wine room. The gardens are great too, particularly in summer.
To a lovely couple!
365 Project – Day 87
Monday, January 11th, 2010To say it was a wet day in Whistler today would be an understatement. As I left work at 8.30pm it was coming down in bucketfuls and made for some very pretty patterns and reflections:

365 Project – Day 86
Sunday, January 10th, 2010This is the winning dog “Maddie” in the Purina Incredible Dog Challenge in Whistler – she won the agility competition and came 2nd in the 60′ weave. Lots of fun to watch.

365 Project – Day 85 – Wedding shoes
Saturday, January 9th, 2010Today I shot the wedding of Rachel and Martin. I’ll do a full blog in the wedding section in a couple of days. The bride really liked her shoes and wanted them highlighted with her dress:

365 Project – Day 84
Friday, January 8th, 2010Ok, so the film border is a little cheesy – I just wanted to mix it up a bit as the shot was kinda similar to yesterdays. Again the shot is taken in Bagel Bowl on the back side of the Peak. I was aiming to get Black Tusk in too, but didn’t have a wide enough lens.

Thursday, January 7th, 2010Great day of skiing today on Whistler. This is Rob (a better skiing than me, that’s for sure!).

365 Project – Day 81
Tuesday, January 5th, 2010Another ‘studio’ shot at 10pm. I was trying to capture the translucence of this crystal but I don’t have a light box. I messed around with just one flash on a tripod plus a reflector. I quite like the result.
