86/365

All packed up and ready to go.  My next update(s) will be from Cuba.  See you in a week!


85/365 – Missed

ok….I said I wasn’t gonna say “missed” anymore, but I really did.  Oops.


84/365 – No photo

I don’t want to say “missed” anymore because, I really didn’t miss tonight.  Another night of getting the kids to bed and packing. It’s now 8:40 and time to wind down and keep working on the new laptop.  Don’t worry, ton’s of pics coming soon!


83/365 – missed on purpose

Hey fanclub!  Sorry for no picture today.  I’m prepping for Cuba and my brand new HP Laptop died that I got at Future Shop.  So I had to exchange it tonight.  They didn’t have any, so I “upgraded” to a Toshiba.  Hopefully get a better experience out of this one!  I’ll be back soon.

Finally got to shoot my oldest daughter.  Did about 30 images in about 2 minutes.


81/365

One of these things is not like the other…

Can you guess which one is not me?

Vincent’s 2 – BarberShop & Hairstyles

Picture looks best when you click on it.  I’m not sure why my site is compressing the image.

I found this barbershop a few years ago when I lived in Oakville.  Hands down the best place around.  I thought I’d throw a shout out to these guys for always doing a great job.

Joe, you and your team are awesome, keep up the great work.

Susie – my wife

It’s rare that I am able to capture my own wife.  Usually there are children hanging off one of us.


78/365

gotta stay cool, my momma never raised no fool

That’s right another Andy Curran quote.  Really it’s part two.

Engagement & Wedding Rings

Found this picture in one of my many wedding books.


76/365

Desiree in the clouds

3363575473 988a1e6fcc b 76/365

Took this shot indoors, but the background was not flattering, so I thought I’d play with the "render clouds" in Photoshop.


75/365

Wedding Rings in Cables

3360911197 0612bc0b09 b 75/365

The fan on my video card is crapping out, so I have to leave the side of my computer off and "tap" the fan once in a while to keep it quiet. So I thought, let’s take the rings our of the "norm" and put integrate them into some technology.


74/365

Guitar Books

3358637952 d6dfeccd54 b 74/365

A few of my favs. Stacked so nicely. I wish I had more time to sit down with them again.


73/365

Hayden outside

3354433621 af808dcc07 b 73/365

Took the kids and the camera for a walk today. Found this little gem in the batch. Not the best focus or sharpness, but it was too cute.


72/365 – missed

Not doing so good with the 365 right now. When doing this kind of 365, it is very tough to take a picture every day and post it. Some days, there are just no opportunity to do it, like this week and dealing with 3 sick kids and a sick yourself!


71/365 – Missed

Missed another day.

Today was Hayden’s first birthday and he and I spent it in bed sleeping. I don’t mean first thing in the morning all cute and cuddly, I mean woke up went to work, picked up the kids from daycare and then came home.

He and I were really sick, so we went to bed at 6:30pm. Oh yeah, the 2 girls were sick too. So my wife and parents enjoyed a nice lasagna and cake while the rest of us were sick.


70/365 – Missed

For today Wednesday March 11th, I’m going to miss another shoot. I’ll be back tomorrow I’m sure. It’s Hayden-man’s birthday.

Tuesday March 10th

Missed another day of shooting, but it was my brother’s 34th birthday.

Happy Birthday Old Man!

The [in]famous [b]ecker is coming to Burlington and I’m hanging with the master!  I’ll be just returning from Cuba shooting my first destination wedding, then off to this seminar in my hometown.  It doesn’t get much better than this from a photography standpoint!


68/365 – missed

Yup, another missed day.  Had to spend the day taking care of the kids.  2 littles ones sick.  Back up again tomorrow.

65/365 – Another missed

Well, I’m gonna miss this day too. Not feeling so hot tonight and it was just me and the two little ones. So kinda burned out and going to bed soon!


64/365 – Missed

Worked my 9-5 yesterday, then worked my 5-9 shift at home. Went out for coffee with Lindsey Ryder of Ryder Photo. Always great to catch up with fellow photographers.
