Yesterday was a crazy day. Being away for school has left me with only the weekends for shoots and this weekend I ended up having two in one day which was a first for me. Another first was shooting 2.5 year old twins. This for sure was an adventure but I managed quite a few good shots. The second shoot for the day was shooting all the cousins for the Casalanguida and Cisternino family. This was a really fun shoot and resulted in some great images.

2010 Y108 Rock N' Roll Picnic
Today was the 5th? Annual Y108 Rock N' Roll Picnic. This year's picnic was part of the annual Festival of Friends in Hamilton. This year saw the return of a band that played 2 years ago, however under a different name (Hollowick, formerly Rides Again). Once again they put on a great show and their new songs are solid. Look for their new album to arrive in September, it's going to be a good one. Another solid performance was Fozzy, featuring the WWE Superstar Chris Jericho. Going into this I thought it was just some gimmick but as far as metal goes it definitely holds its own. And, it's also hard to hate Chris Jericho who looked like he genuinely enjoyed being up on stage and even took the time to poke fun at his band's marginal success. A surprising but good performance.

Worldwide Photo Walk
Back in July I participated in the Hamilton location for the Worldwide Photo Walk put on annually by Scott Kelby. Today I found out that this image that submitted was selected as the winner for the Hamilton walk. I am completely excited about this and looking forward to how it fares up against some of the other amazing winners from the other cities.

My first Wedding shoot...sort of
Yesterday someone very close to me who I grew up with got married. This was my Godparent's daughter. It's weird to see someone that you've spent so much time with growing up get married to say the least. Can't believe how fast time has gone. Anyway, the wedding was absolutely beautiful and was a great night. The hired photographer left after the first dance so I took the liberty to snap a few shots of the rest of the reception. I've never done anything like this before so it was a good experience and I got a few keepers.

2010 Burlington Sound of Music Festival
Today and yesterday I went over to the 2010 Burlington Sound of Music Festival. This is one event I look forward to every year. It's one of the best music festivals in Southern Ontario and the best part is, it's always free. This year I went to go see The Trews, who never disappoint, on the Friday and on Saturday I went to go check out Elliott Brood. However, the first artist of the day was Jay Sparrow. What a surprise, this turned out to be my favourite performance of the entire weekend and he sure is one talented dude. Great, great music.

Joshua
On Saturday I had a shoot with this little guy. The cousin of Max, Joshua was really fun to shoot, he's a really happy kid with a great personality. I was a little nervous for this shoot since it was the first one I've had in a while where I did not have any relationship with the people I was shooting for. The shots turned out very well I think. Don't forget to head on over to flickr for more pictures from the shoot!

Max
Yesterday I was asked to shoot some portraits of a teacher's kid from the school that I am currently placed with. It was the first time I've ever tried to shoot a baby and it was definitely a learning experience. The family were really pleased with the shots and I'll be working with them again in the future. Hop on over to my flickr page to see a few more shots from this shoot.

On Friday I ventured downtown to the Freeway Cafe to check out my friend's new band, Out for Glory. The drummer and bassist of the band were both members of the now defunct Carrion, a hardcore band from Hamilton that I have done promos for in the past. This new band is a definite departure from that and works really well. They've shifted to a more pop-punk sound similar to that of Acceptance. These guys are going to be huge and as soon as they record I will be putting up a link with some music. Also expect some promo shots of these guys soon!

Welcome 2010...
Happy New Year! Hopefully this year will be a good one. This is definitely going to be an interesting and busy year. I graduate from college this year (finally!) and might be going back to University. There are also a few changes I'll be making this year and I'm very excited at the prospects. I am also very determined to actually keep this thing updated for once...we'll see how well that goes!
