2018 has been off to a pretty busy start in terms of shooting! In addition to my monthly projects, I have a noticeable backlog in addition. But add regular work and the recent preparations for an upcoming trip (more on this later!) it's been a constant game of catch-up! One thing I did manage to get up on the website are photos for a Muay Thai event called Art of War at the Canadian War Museum. Was my first time seriously shooting this sort of content but I'm pretty happy with some of the shots I got!  This post is another chip at my backlog, first up couple photos here from the Toronto Light Fest. Not to be confused with Lights Festival that I attended in Ottawa last September , with the lanterns. The Toronto Light Fest is an annual temporary art installation in the Distillery District. these girls took turns posing for their Instagram-worthy photo! #photographysquad adorable English bulldog! love how they incorporated lights into ...

Something different for today's blogpost! I've shared family photos on here before, but they've always been of my own family :P A little while back, I tagged along to Nick's photoshoot with his coworker and her family. They send an album each Christmas overseas to their relatives, which I think is a super sweet idea! One of my favourite shots of David playing by the fountain!  Another family with their little girl in the background, perplexed at the multiple cameras going off in their direction! It was a beautiful sunny day at the Canadian Museum of History. "You can't catch me!" We were only shooting outside but the family brought along many toys as fun props. If you couldn't tell already by his Thomas the Tank tee shirt, David loves trains. A happy family plays together :) There were also some cool cars parked on display outside the museum! Trading in toy trains for real cars? Also love ...

Couple weekends ago, Nick and I went on a double date with our friends Joanna and Alex to the Lights Festival. The event was held in town of Carleton Place, which really confused me because I thought the event venue was just called "Carleton Place" -- oops! Town hall on the left Despite being late September, the heatwave was hitting us full force! Jo dressed for the heat in some of her new threads from our latest shopping trips, so we had a mini-photo shoot by the water.  Loving her Spanish dancer vibes from the red floral skirt! Top from H&M Skirt from VV Shoes from Forever21 We spent an hour or so walking around, Carleton Place is super cute brimming with small town vibes. Many locals have sweet rides but this one really takes the cake! Resisting all urge to hop in close up! Eventually we headed out to the event venue. Traffic was awful as it was a one-lane road to the venue. We got there "late" in the sense that t...
