In late November I was able to take my family on a trip to Mexico to shoot a friends wedding. I’ll be sharing those photos some time down the road, but in the meantime here are a few casual frames shot on film.

Rory!

Wow. I’m officially a dad.

Our little bundle of joy arrived yesterday evening – and she’s amazing. Both Rory and Mom are happy and healthy and we couldn’t be happier. Here’s a first look at her:

I spent Easter Sunday with my family. I took a few photos.

April Fools

Mother Nature played a nice April Fools joke on us Calgarians last night – she gave us a light dusting of snow that remains on the ground this morning. Great way to start off the spring

Ribcage

Another simple architectural composition today.

These interesting design elements are in the brand new Eighth Avenue Place building in downtown Calgary. Between each elevator bank, these rib-like structures stretch from just overhead all the way to the ceiling meters above. I’m not sure if they’re actually functional, but they do kind of look like they form the ribcage of main foyer.

I’ll tell you what…I’m absolutely loving the fact that I have this little camera with me all the time now. It makes the walk to and from work every day that much more enjoyable, even if I only rattle of a few dozen frames. I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been walking back to my car and seen something photo worthy and been unable to capture it because I didn’t have my gear with me.

The fixed 35mm focal length (35mm equivalent) is really challenging me to find compositions that will work, and I think in the long run it will help with my vision as a photographer. Taking a page out of my friend, Brian Matiash’s book, I’ve been trying to simplify things every now and then, and so far this camera has helped me towards that goal.
