Who likes skiing?

I do.

But I only ski on average once every two years. I used to be such a ski bum but it's so expensive now that I really don't go to the slopes very often.

Which usually means every time I ski, I'm in horrible shape for skiing, and end up being just about dead by the end of the trip. This one was no exception.

Proof I actually went to the hill! We went to Sunshine for three days.



The weather for day 1 was fabulous. In fact, it was a bit warm.



This is Jared, my friend who organized the trip.



And of course, FOOD is a huge part of my life, and this trip was no exception. This dinner was EPIC. Garden salad, carrot ginger soup, smelts, shrimp cocktail, ravioli, bison steaks, pumpkin pie, and fresh baked cookies. (The cookies were in the over during this shot. haha) Food rocks. I love food.



The next days were much colder but still awesome. Gosh I love the mountains. I honestly believe I live in the most amazing place in the world... Alberta! The landscape is SO diverse and gorgeous!

Happy New Year to all!

Ok, so it's a little late... but better late than never. Just wanted to wish you all a happy new year! I hope Santa was nice to all of you and you got what you wanted! Looking forward to another AWESOME shooting season! I can't wait!

Some of my colleagues have been bugging me to show some of my featured stuff online. It's a bit of old news but I guess I will post it up anyways. One of my resolutions is to be a little better with blogging. :)

First up, the ever-popular Canadian wedding magazine called WeddingBells contacted me months ago to be featured on the first page of the Edmonton section of the magazine. We were pleased to agree.






And this is the original photo. Special thanks to Cheryl and her pretty girls for this awesome pic!



Another love of mine is shooting architecture. I've always had a love for it even though I don't display it on my website. Opulence magazine approached me to shoot a spec home for Soul Homes. Soul Homes is a speciality builder which creates GORGEOUS, clean home designs, built without a single cut corner, and put together with a lot of love poured into everything from design to finish. This is a builder that builds purely for the love of it. This home featured here recently sold in the millions.





And here is the original photo of the exterior:



So many thanks out to Tim and Vera at Soul Homes, Gordon from Opulence, and Diana from WeddingBells. It's been great working for you.
