Poplar Estates

Some photos around my parent's place in Poplar Estates.  My mom's dog, Maggie likes to pose for the camera.  My Gma makes the gnome houses.

Fine Art Experiment

One of my "Fine Art" class assignments was to do an experiment where the photographer is removed from influencing how the subject poses and acts.  I chose to use space between the subject and camera to be the overall influence.  First using a wide angle lens with a minimal distance and then backing away and using a long lens. This is Eric Paul and his roommate.

Fort Edmonton

I have lived in Edmonton for four years now and I had realized that I have never been to Fort Edmonton, so last summer I took a day trip with Colleen and Mike.  It is an old community that has been preserved through time, not only the homes and stores but the staff dress up and talk as if the people had been preserved too.  Full of great photo opportunities, I suggest that you go see it one day if you get the chance.

Slave Lake

Beach, trees and bird houses from Slave Lake.









Nearing the end of Summer

Near the end of summer, Colleen and I spent a few days in Slave Lake.  She is one of my biggest influences when it comes to photography.  None of these photos would exist if it wasn't for her pushing me to go off on the beach with our cameras.







August Long

Over August long weekend this summer I took a trip up to Slave Lake to camp with my parents and cousins.  The weather was not the greatest but it was still a lot of fun. Here are a few of my favorites from the weekend.

Arizona

My parents recently bought a house in Arizona with my uncle and aunt.  I took a trip to check out the place with my parents last year and took a few photos; the cacti were blooming and these are some that I like.


My parents.




And the White Tank Mountains.
