In the Midst of Portfolio

Unbelievable!

April already, and almost a quarter of the way through it. This year has been amazing, even while being sleep deprived and conceptually exhaustive, I have loved it. With all of my attention focused on my final portfolio, and seeing that coming close to being finished, it's hard to believe that I am graduating in a few short weeks......only 18 days.

Hey, if any of you are wanting to see some great work, this year's graduates from Sheridan College's photography program, including yours truly, are putting on a Gallery show at Arta Gallery in Toronto (distillery district) from April 30-May 12. We are also apart of Contact Photography Festival! This is going to be a killer show, please make your way down to it....come on, what a great excuse to come to Toronto!

Enjoy the day today, be blessed.

food....gotta love it

Here is a recent assignment I was given. It is a two page layout.

I love shooting food!

(I am coming close to finishing my website material. I can't wait to reveal it to the world wide web, and introduce it to google....I hope they will become best of friends.)

it will be all your hopes and more!

How do you spell the word swamped?!!

Hey guys, yes I know, I have been slacking the past month......ouch, that is too long.

School has been so exciting, yet so busy, anytime I could get to sleep I took advantage of it. I have been shooting a lot this past month, most of which I am keeping off web until May (read post script!!!)

Below is a portrait of turning an ordinary person into a rockstar! This process was a lot of fun, and the end result was exactly what I was aiming for! Thank you Natalie (stylist), Kristen (model), and Kaylie (mua) for all your help!

Cheers everyone!

RL

(p.s. - I have been working on a new website, and I am holding back a few images for the launch date at the beginning of May. I cant tell you how excited I am for this. But patience please, in the mean time - I am still going to post)

Behind Curtain #2.....a shoe

Happy January 26th! This morning I woke up and said its going to be a beautiful day.....so far so good! Listening to Switchfoot's song "Enough To Let Me Go" from their new CD Hello Hurricane sure helped to put me in this mood.

Ok on to the subject of todays post. This shoe was actually shot for a separate assignment, but I wanted to try something different with it....so here it is! I like the red glow and how dramatic it is.

On a side note.....I think I am going to officially sign up on the twitter bandwagon...just decided that moments ago.....thoughts?

A Golden Ticket

Sure, you could say that this truffle wasn't in one of my favourite childhood films: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but I'm sure it could take it's place somewhere between an "everlasting gobstopper" and a "wriggle sweet".

For the Augustus Gloop's out there this is a Godiva chocolate truffle selling at a boutique near you! ;)

Fall Fashion

This shoot was from a while back, something that I have always wanted to post, but never got around to doing so.

This location was simply fantastic. With rain the entire drive to the location, it ended up being a beautiful overcast day, and managed to have a very successful shoot. Special thanks to Melissa (model), as well as Danielle, and Candice (wardrobe, Hair and make-up) for a such great job.

Stay tuned for some very exciting posts to come!

Help make it stop

Hey Guys,

I know this is a photo blog, and I rarely, if never, do I post without a picture of my own, but I thought I needed to help as much as I could.


This guys name is Brandt, and he has committed to starving himself until he has raised $16,000 to save 1 million kids.

Here is a evocative quote from his blog:

"I keep getting folks ask me if Im afraid that the money wont come, what will happen? Would I just allow myself to starve, or would I pull out just in time to restore my health. The fact is that these children have NO OPTION of being rescued from their hunger unless we are the ones providing those opportunities. If my life isnt worth $15,500 (or the facilitation of the health of 1,000,000 precious children), what have we become. When did we become the judges of who lived and died? How did we become a people who would fight to protect our comfort above the lives of innocent children whos lives slip away every single day from very preventable diseases? God forgive us. Give us new perspective. "


Please, even if it's small....... do something.

Fashion with 19 Days and Counting

School is winding down, Christmas is quickly approaching, and there is not enough strength to dedicate for both, so Christmas shopping will have to wait, because school is just UNreal.

Here is an independent fashion assignment that I have recently handed in. We had no boundaries, creative freedom! Loved it. My model was perfect for the job, and the location was begging to be captured!

Enjoy these last few weeks before Christmas, but make sure you stop and take time to breath, and soak up this beautiful time of year.

Time will Tell

Ok I know the title is Cheesy...

I love shooting product. I love the challenge of lighting something properly, problem solving the issues, and watching the product begin to light up and jump off the screen....lol...I think I have a problem.

I loved shooting this project, and I cant wait for more like it. Although, I am glad this semester is winding down...I need a break. That being said, there are still too many things that need to be done in the next two weeks.... but will I have enough time to blog?

I THINK SO!
So make sure you come on back!


Have a great day!

Tim Hortons

Coffee... how do you make a coffee advertisement look unique, interesting, and desirable?

We were instructed to create an advertisement in a direction that Tim Hortons has never gone. This is my solution! I was terrified when starting it, because I was afraid of what I was getting myself into, but knowing that I was capable I persisted, and the final product exceeded my initial expectations.

enjoy and expect many posts very very soon! Starting tomorrow! .... super pumped for the upcoming posts!

Narrative

As Promised:

Hey Guys, this was the largest production I have done so far. We had tungsten lights and strobes everywhere - everyone on the street thought that a movie was being filmed, lol.

enjoy.
