Andrea S. the Rainbow Effect

I finally got a chance to edit a few more shots of model Andrea S. She's such a great model that there were tons of shots to choose from. She was so cute prancing around the studio, doing all these original poses and moves. I just learned how to do this rainbow effect with gradients in photoshop. Now I need to stop myself from "rainbowing" every shot. We also managed to get a few shots of the surreal fog that hung over Vancouver last month.

Easy on the eyes: Jeffrey Bowyer Chapman

Here's some bonus shots of Jeffrey Bowyer Chapman from my shoot a few weeks ago. He's working on a feature film in between supermodel gigs. I thought I'd post these due to the level of interest among my female friends.

Hand and Shadow

I recently shot a catalog for local designer Georgie Russell and her company Hand and Shadow. Each item is hand printed and unique. I have a few of her pieces and every time I wear them people want to know where to buy them. You can get them at DREAM, on Cordova St. and soon through the new Hand and Shadow website which I will post when it is launched.

AG Hair Cosmetics Fashion Show

A few weeks ago I had the fun job of shooting the AG hair show. It's a yearly event where AG's top stylists showcase their new techniques and products in a colorful runway style fashion show. The models and hair creations were amazing. They also gave me some products to try (never a bad thing). Now my hair is super shiny and smells like cherries and marshmallows!

Vancouver Matters

I have a photograph in an exciting new book project called Vancouver Matters. Here is a blurb from the press release:

"Vancouver Matters" presents a reading of the city through multiple points of view; from professors and students at the UBC School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture to artists, architects, and designers living and working in Vancouver.

Representing Vancouver’s history and present materiality through writing, drawing, and photography, "Vancouver Matters" offers a critical examination of the city’s faults and opportunities. The text is organized by material condition, ranging from trees, views, and water to intimacy, iconography, and residue. Each investigation uses the specific material as a lens through which the city can be seen anew.

My photograph shows the Woodwards building project in 2007, in it's early stages. The book can be purchased at the Charles H. Scott gallery on Granville Island.
