I’m thinking this must be one of the best jobs out there. A dog photographer? People are great and everything but…

I happened upon Paige’s website yesterday. She is a wedding and portrait photographer based in Denver and London. Love her “about” statement:
I am…
blue jeans & cashmere,
diamonds & bare feet,
grilled cheese sandwiches… with champagne…
See more work on her blog.

We had a media tour visit us at Boulevard Magazine a few weeks ago, and the photographer had the most excellent camera bag. I don’t see the exact one here, but it has been determined that it was from Kelly Moore bags. It’s a great site, with videos of how the bags work and fantastic cross section diagrams.

I wonder how these people are feeling about themselves after the Stanley Cup riots? What is this all about anyway? Is this hockey? Is this Vancouver? Is this what it means to be a fan?
fan:
fanatical enthusiast or supporter
fanatical:
1. Filled with excessive and single-minded zeal.
2. Obsessively concerned with something.
It’s great to enjoy a sport, but what’s up with the die-hard, nervous energy, aggression-driven passion? Where did this state of mind come from and more importantly, where is it going? The game was an excuse for bad people to behave badly. Were any spurred to action from actual disappointment at the outcome of the game or are they just crazy? If anything good could come from this, the shot of the couple smooching on the ground is unreal. All photos via nationalpost.com.

On March 19th, the moon was at the nearest possible point from the ground, making it exceptionally large – 14% larger and 30% brighter to be exact.
Not to be repeated until 2029.

Surf at your doorstep, cruiser bikes, crashing waves… there’s a good vibe in Encinitas California where the winter means walks on the beach in your shorts, picnics and happy hour. It’s a half hour north of San Diego off Hwy 101. My visit was short, but sweet, literally. A stroll to the Leucadia Donut Shoppe makes for a cheap and easy thrill, a toddle around the Self Realization Fellowship Meditation Gardens is worth it for the view and a quiet place to rest. Don’t forget the Pizza Port where delicious pizza and craft brews meet video games and lively music. Here’s to winter weekends.

The rain is falling, the skies are grey and it seems everyone is talking about getting out of town. I’m relying on a few photos from the archives to get me through. Tesoro Resort in Manzanillo… Mexico’s busiest port and where the movie 10 starring Bo Derek and Dudley Moore was shot.

I’ve noticed that my DSLR is producing images with little blurry spots. Time to clean it up. It’s likely that your camera came with some cleaning equipment. If you’ve lost track of it, you’ll need to get some lens cleaning fluid and cleaning tissues. C’mon, you know you’ve been dying to use that air plunger. If you’re unsure, take your camera somewhere like Lens & Shutter.

The industry of motherhood is rampant. Conversations, online resources, blogs….
Sometimes I wonder about the dads.
“Taking pictures is instinctual for photographer Phillip Toledano. His paternal instincts, however, took time to develop. When his daughter Loulou was born, he was faced with the sobering realization that every baby enters the world as a stranger, a living riddle demanding to be solved.
Through photos and narration, Toledano plots out his journey through the maze of Loulou’s first months, revealing his steps toward fatherhood.”
From objet d’art to object of love The Reluctant Father is a candid, humourous image diary of a father/artist. Go Dads.

White sand, blue water, cabin life. The regulars would rather you not know. Get there via the Powell River ferry from Comox, drive to Lund and catch a water taxi. I’d say go, but then I might not get invited back. It’s a place where you go to clarify your thoughts or muddle them up. It’s about the people, the place and links to the past.

When September is looking you straight in the eye, it’s time to take a last minute camping trip. Kopachuck State Park was a random choice – I think I heard something good about Gig Harbor once? It’s about a leisurely 3 hour drive from Port Angeles. A lunch stop in Port Townsend was worth it for the pizza and architecture. Kopachuck is about 15 mins outside of Gig Harbor, Washington where the view downhill of a long harbor filled with boats and Mt. Rainier climbing from the edge of the sea makes for exciting arrival. Gig Harbor is a serene place with a history in boat building and commercial fishing. Today there are farmers markets, docks to wander, a decent choice of restaurants, shops geared towards boaters and 10 mins outside of town…. Target. Kopachuck is winner of a campsite, private and quiet, with a boat launch and a beach where the water is warm enough for swimming. Perfect place to recharge your creativity.

YouWorkForThem: A collection of artists offer everything from stock images, fonts, videos and audio. Check out their blog for other design inspiration.

My clients are usually surprised to find out you can purchase stock photography for under $20. One of the most difficult challenges can be finding imagery or video that both illustrates your business and appeals to your demographic. If you’re creative (c’mon even you can make your own invite or t-shirt design) stock sites are great for textured backgrounds and vector graphics. Here are a few of my faves:
iStockphoto: my most frequent haunt. This was one of the first stock sites I worked with, it’s affordable and easy to use. Sign up, buy stock, sell stock.
Dreamstime: lots of affordable images, I find the interface a little awkward.
Fotolia: stock photos from 14 cents!
Shutter Stock: “the largest subscription-based stock photo agency in the world”. Thousands of photographs, illustrations, and vectors added every day.
123 Royalty Free: credit packages or subscriptions, similar to iStock.

It was a drizzly and slow start to the Vic-Maui International Yacht Race this morning but that didn’t diminish the spectator’s awe as they watched their friends and family set sail for Hawaii. Could you do it?

Taken with these images from photographer Richard Powers. Powers is a self taught photographer, specializing in architecture and interiors. When asked what the most important thing is for good photography, he says, “balance is key – what and what not to include is as equally important as the shadows and highlights”. Loads more inspiration on his website.
