Every time Jihan comes to Vancouver, we both try to get together for a shoot, this October was no exception. We rented a beautiful loft in the heart of Railtown on a gorgeous sunny day, Jihan was here for a week and we were both thrilled to reunite and create. She brought a number of outfits sourced at the local thrift store and some lingerie so graciously provided by Curvy Intimates. The space had plenty of window l
Miss L.L. seemed dreamy and very stylish from the first moment we met, turned out we had many friends in common but our paths had not crossed before. She is an architect and wanted to do an elegant photo session with a funky feel, sensuality and authenticity. We rented a space with exposed brick and plain walls, I think the absence of furniture draws the attention to the subject. There was natural light, music and a
Genevieve and I have the best time at photoshoots, she is an actress and I think it gives her a unique ability to show many characters and explore moods with ease. As usual, we chose to do a photoshoot at sunrise, by the beach, it seems to be the theme through our creative journey. Anastasia, bless her heart, was up and ready to prep Genevieve at 4am, she is a talented make up artist and a total darling. We did a dew
Ivy and I became instant friends when we first met at a coffee shop to brainstorm for our art photoshoot. She has a sweet and positive personality and it felt like we are on the same page about everything! Our first shoot was amazing: we printed a photo book, participated in an art exhibit and we knew it was just a start! After such success and desire to create more beauty we decided to do an editorial session. Chic,
My third exhibit and second annual Eros show. What a fantastic collection of Nudes by Vancouver photographers. I had the honour of displaying 7 of my images, two of which were displayed on the Feature Exhibition wall. The words don’t really express how thrilled, happy and grateful I am. THANK you my lovely friends for your continuous support, it felt amazing to have you all there. To see my submission on full
Where do I fond my clients? Everywhere. I meet my potential clients on the street, at my favourite coffee shop, in the building I work at and while traveling. Miss J. found me, we planned a secret session for a Valentine’s present for her man. Except, I think all three of us knew the present was actually for her! Sunlit smiles, flirty lingerie and gorgeous curves were such a treat to photograph. Enjoy!! Much lo
I have to say that photographing my first nude project has been the most thrilling experience. Nude photography and artistic nudes are a whole new world I have discovered last fall. In my eyes a nude woman is a true woman, vulnerable and strong, beautiful and empowered, gracious and real. As mentioned in the earlier blog entry it was a friendly competition among 11 other Vancouver photographers. These images did not
It has been six months to the day since my first (ever) gallery exhibit and I had the honour… I had the most spontaneous and exciting competition arranged by Vancouver Photo Workshops and Photo Haus Gallery. One house, One model, 12 photographers, 30 minutes. A new friend photographer, Michael Cordiez a master of artistic nudes insisted that I participate. This was to be my fist nude shoot and an incredible ch
Wedding photography is a lot more exciting when there is a creative photo session included – Trash The Dress. Forget the rules and proper “bride” behaviour, dance on the streets, climb trees, mountains and jump around, roll in the snow or sit on the side walk – there are no limits! Destination weddings have some unique settings; however, even a local public market has the potential. Check out
Friday, February 17, 2012 was a huge milestone in my Photography Business, I took part in a gallery exhibition for the first time. It was really well received 🙂 There was so many talented artists and just really awesome people, it was an absolute delight! When I had this project in the summer of 2011, I just knew that boudoir session was special. The exhibition advertised by PhotoHaus Gallery, Vancouver simply fit th
I am very excited to announce that I will be taking part in the “EROS” – Nude and Erotic Photography Exhibition on February 12, 2012 at the Photohaus Gallery . There will be three of my images among dozens of other photographers, both professionals and amateur, and this means so much to me! As a side note, when I took those photos, I knew that they would turn out. I knew that there will be minimal p
Meet precious Maddox Jeremy Sebastian, the sweet bundle of joy. Here, he is only two weeks old, sleeping peacefully in the arms of his happy parents… well, for 5 min of so! Like any infant at two weeks, he was quick to cry and fall asleep after mommy fed him. Words cannot explain baby photography, be the judge yourself and meet Prince Charming to be. Summer session in Whistler with my wonderful clients and new
