My first Photobook.

Just received my first Photobook from Photobook Canada www.photobookcanada.com. I am very impressed so far. The quality is very good and the pictures turned out awesome. Even the ones that I didn’t fix up too much (or at all) in Photoshop.
They have an awesome deal going on right now, where I received a second photobook for free. The printing was done within 7 days and they shipped via Canada Post. The packaging that they arrived in was good as well, the books were not damaged at all. I highly recommend checking them out for your next printing needs. The software is also very easy to use and you can make some pretty amazing designs on your own. I’m not a graphic designer, but the tools they give allow you to really do anything you want!

The Legend of the Wedding Ring

Author Unknown
In a far off country many centuries ago,
A kind young king was married to a princess he loved.
Together they lived happily
Until they learned one day that duties were to force
The king to journey far away.
One night, before he left,
He tossed some pebbles into a moonlit pool
On the palace grounds
As he sat thinking of his lovely Queen.
Something wonderful occurred to him
As the lovely ripples widened,
From where the little pebbles had fallen.
The next day,
Remembering the glistening circles he had seen,
He had a gold ring made
To fit the finger of his Queen.
“There is no ending or beginning
To the circle of this band”,
The King said as he slipped it on her finger,
“And that is why I have chosen this golden ring
To be a pledge to you-
My love will last through all eternity.”;
And so, since that time,
A golden ring has been a symbol
Of the beauty of devotion
And the beauty of the endlessness of love.

Painting by Marie St-Amour

My aunt, Marie St-Amour, gave this painting as a wedding gift to my wife and I. She was not able to make it to the wedding, but gave us this wonderful gift. Je vous merci encore Marie.

Happy New Years to all. I hope 2008 was great to you and I hope 2009 will be just as special.
Lots of great things are lining up for 2009 already:
Keep an eye on the site as I am embarking on my 365 drive. I’ll be uploading to Flickr and posting the links here.
Lots of new work coming down the pipe with Jennifer Images (thanks again Jen!!).
Engagement and Wedding shoots are already starting to come in the door.
I’ll be announcing an amazing deal in the next few weeks…stay tuned.
Thanks for all your support in 2009 and I look forward to meeting you all next year.

I had the pleasure of being introduced to this fine couple from a colleague. We shot this just outside of Crossroads in Burlington.

I was suppose to be a guest for my good friends David and Jen. I ended up having the pleasure of working, unofficially, with Jennifer Images (both Jennifer and Lisa). Here’s a few shots from the wedding:
