Bill C-51 protest
Bill C-51 protest

In the strangest places we sometimes find our focus. For me it has always been on the street connecting with average Canadians looking to have their voices heard. This image from the bill C-51 protest in Toronto is my best photo from 2015. I think it captures the essence of the frustration and hope Torontonians felt when they took to the streets this past March.

Toronto mayor John Tory smiles as as the Pride Flag is raised at Toronto city hall marking the beginning of Pride week. The flag raising was also a symbolic break from the previous Ford era of disconnection to the Toronto LBGTQ community. A welcome change and a moment I was proud to have captured.

I don't really know what yo say about this image. I think it speaks for itself rather well. All I can say is it was a lucky capture, one of those moments where your unconscious mind registers more than your conscious does and your body just reacts. Point and shoot.

I almost didn't do this shoot. When I was originally asked by some close friends, I declined. It wasn't my speciality and I was concerned about not being able produce the images they wanted. However I eventually caved and I'm glad I did. I researched infant photography, learned some new tricks and in the end produced images that both my friends and I very are happy with.

While I feel my earlier image of the C-51 protests tells the civilian side of the story, this image is the polar opposite. A balaclava ladened police officer, glaring directly at my camera; he is quite literally on the opposite side of the civil action the citizens he serves and protects are partaking in.

I just love motion in images. With those pom-poms moving in unison, there was no other way to capture the moment.

Pride was incredibly rainy this year, and when not worrying about breaking a camera body, all that water allowed for some creative photo oportunities.

This August I had the privilege of photographing Sam & Ellen's wonderful wedding. Their spiritual ceremony was Pagan and held in a grove of trees. Aside from the bride, groom and their priestess, only myself and my assistant were present. It was truly a once and a lifetime kind of wedding to shoot.

This girl just looked so unimpressed with her lovely bouquet of flowers. I wonder if she was unimpressed with having received them, or disheartened with the prospect of having to give them to someone else.
