How do you spruce up a boring old black background? You mop the floor and shake a ton of dust into the air. And then try not to cough. Strobist: Alien Bees 800 with 22 inch socked beauty dish camera right, Alien Bees 800 with 7 inch silver reflector behind subject, triggered by Cybersync.
Isabelle and I joke that our washer and dryer look like something from outer space. They’re all modern, sleek… and bubbly. We both think that at the very least, you should able to drive them around the house. I had wanted to stick Ms. Belle inside but I figured it probably wasn’t the best thing...
I took this photo in our backyard, just before we left for my Dad’s memorial. Ben cracks me up. Always.
I tend to keep all my subjects camera right, it’s about time I explored the other side of the frame. Strobist: Bare Nikon SB-800 at the top of stairs pointed down, triggered by Cybersync.
We have had an unbelievable amount of rain these past few days. I wish I had a boat.

Thank you, thank you, for the most amazing comments on yesterdays post! I can’t believe how heartfelt and beautiful each and every one them was. So great! My family is surrounded by the most amazing people and we will not forget the generosity and love that has been shown to us. Thank you all!
This photo may not be any good on it’s own, it probably doesn’t tell a story, and I highly doubt it would mean anything to a stranger. But to me, it’s the best of the bunch. This is the last photo that I will ever take of my Dad, and in this photo, his hand...
There is no one in our house who is more excited about Christmas this year than Isabelle. Maybe five is the perfect age. She sits and stares at the tree, talks about Santa this, and Santa that, comments on every Christmas light we drive past. All of this is done in a sweet, quiet manner....
My Dad had over 17 people come to the hospital yesterday to show their support, here are two of the smaller ones that came to visit him today.
I had a little bit more time to take a photo today so I experimented with a different lighting setup. Isabelle wasn’t in the mood to model for me so she only gave me 5 mintues of her time. It seems that she’s liking having her photo taken less and less. So sad. The background...
My day was different today, much more enjoyable, even if my Dad’s health hasn’t shown any signs of improvement. My brother Kevin and I headed up to Penticton at 7:00 this morning. The plan was to go get our Grandparents and bring them back to the hospital in North Vancouver. We made good time and...
My heart wasn’t in my photography today, I imagine it shows. We spent most of the day at the hospital and unfortunately my Dad hasn’t shown any real signs of improvement. I want to say thank you again to all of my friends, family and strangers that have shown their concern and support, it has...
I spent the day at the hospital with my Dad. To make a long story short, there were complications with the insertion of a feeding tube, he ended up going into cardiac arrest and now is in a coma. I’ll be honest, today was a tough one.
