Back in August I was given the opportunity to second shoot a wedding for the first time with my buddy Jason over at Crush Photography. We ended up with a perfect late summer day and we had so much fun with Tammie, Chris, and their entire group. By the end of the night we all just felt like old friends hanging out.

Oh, and the girl doing one handed pushups on the dancefloor? Yeah, so good.

So, if you’re ever in Calgary and are looking for a gorgeous spot for a photo sesh, look no further than The Reader Rock Garden. This place is UNREAL. I knew it existed and have driven past it countless times but had never been in until this past Sunday. Huge kudos to Richard for the suggestion!

There’s not much I can say about these two that isn’t evident in the photos below. They’re SO much fun and are completely in love with each other. Can’t wait to shoot their wedding later this summer

Abstract Ribs

It feels like a long time since I’ve posted an abstract architecture shot, so I figured I’d share this one from the Stephen Avenue Mall here in Calgary. There are about 6 or 7 tall metal ‘tree’ sculptures along one section of the avenue that are designed to break up wind gusts. This is a view looking straight up to the top of one of these sculptures.

Equipment:
– Canon EOS 5D Mark II
– Canon 135mm f/2.0L

I couldn’t have been luckier to photograph Rea and Chad and their awesome pup Gus a couple of weeks ago. They’re such a fun couple and we had an absolute blast shooting in Confederation Park in Calgary.

The love they have for each other (and their dog) is easy to see.

Equipment:
– Canon EOS 5D Mark II

This past Friday I had the pleasure of shooting an engagement session for one of my longest standing friends here in Calgary. I’ve known Fraser since we were both in elementary school and we’ve remained close ever since. A while back I promised them a photoshoot, and although it’s getting a bit late now (they’re getting married in two weeks!), I figured it’s better late than never. I had an absolute blast shooting these two and I hope you enjoy viewing these images as much as I enjoyed shooting them.

Monolith

Heath OFee — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 13:10:20 +0000

I think this is my favourite building in Calgary. It’s called Palliser South, and sits just south and east of the iconic Calgary Tower. It’s definitely not the tallest building in the city, nor does it have the most grand foyer, but there’s something about the lines of the exterior that just sucks me in. I find myself staring up at it every time I pass by…which is twice a day since I park just across the street from it. Shooting it from any angle just makes me happy.

I’ve posted much more complex compositions of this building in the past, but today I thought I’d go with something simple.

In keeping with my portrait theme this week, I thought I’d share this self-portrait I took with my trusty Holga. Nothing too exciting…just me doing what I love to do

To all of my Canadian readers: Happy Canada Day! I hope you all have a wonderful long weekend!

To all of my American readers: Enjoy your holiday weekend as well…you’ll get your holiday wish on Monday

A simple detail from downtown Calgary today.

Grand Scale

I’m absolutely fascinated with architectural abstracts. Removing all sense of scale and context and just focusing on an interesting pattern can result in some very visually pleasing images.

Triangles

Just one more abstract bit of architecture and I promise I’ll show you guys something else
