I’ve got a few shots from this wedding that I was going to put up onto the blog sometime soon. They’re not comparable, but there’s a couple that are pretty good. Keep watching this space….

We’re back up and running.

Thanks for your patience. And thanks to Billy at superwebhost.com for figuring out what was the problem.

Hey all.

So, somewhere in the past few days, something has gone horribly wrong.

One piece of technology is not talking to another piece of technology.

This means that none of the images on my website are showing up.

Whoops.

To make matters worse, there are about ten different pieces of technology all talking to one another and it could be any or all of them (I really hope it’s not all of them.

So as you look around the site, enjoy the pretty pink boxes.

The movies are still playing though.

Sorry for the trouble; I’ll fix it as quickly as I can.

Anyway. I did an interview with Seth Godin about the art of wedding photography about a week ago and it is the feature story over on the blog. It’s a bit inside baseball-y, but if you’re into marketing or wedding photography at all, it’s worth a read.

If you’ve come here looking for another shot that escaped my notice last year, you’ll have to look elsewhere. This post is specifically written for her. Right there. Yes, you, over there, behind that computer monitor. Don’t look like that, you know I’m talking to you. You just sort of clicked here looking for a wedding photographer, right? That means you’re getting married, right?

Then this post is for you, as it is for all brides in Northern BC and Alberta.

I’ve long had this feeling that brides in Northern BC and Alberta have long been underserved online. There are very few places for brides to find out information about vendors, to read what other brides have to say about their experiences, and to meet with those other brides.

I am considering changing this. But I want to know how you (yes, I’m still talking to you; stop pretending you’re not there.) feel on the issue. I’m not a bride-to-be. I’m, well, I’m a guy, and I like technology, and I may be seeing issues where none exist.

Do you feel like there aren’t any websites dedicated to you? Or are you happy with the state of things? Either way, I want to hear from all the brides in the Peace Region, and find out what it is, if anything would make your wedding planning easier.

So, if you have a few minutes, you can fill out this questionnaire. But really, the questions are just a beginning. The idea behind the site is social: a chance for people to get together virtually or in reality, and communicate. So I invite you to call or email me with your ideas, too, especially if they don’t fit nicely into the questionnaire I have prepared. The questionnaire, and contact information, is found here.

Thank you!

There was so much demand for the Fotos for Food Foodbank Fundraiser, that we added in a second day, and there is only one spot left that day, too. A big thank you to all the people who have signed up and who have pitched in to help. If you were hoping to join in the fun, better act now, because I don’t think that one spot will be around for very long at all.

As we near christmas, our focus is on families. For the month of November we are offering families two ways to celebrate the season and capture the connections they share: A month-long family one hour special and a one day food bank portrait event.

For the month of November your 1 hour session includes 25 free 5X7 christmas cards designed to fit your style and personality, or two 11X14 prints of one image – one to keep and one to give as a gift! Each session is tailored to you, capturing the love, fun and connections between your loved ones. Book early to get you items on time for mailing out.
