Photography has taken a massive backseat lately with me starting University. However, last Saturday I was able to fit in a short little shoot with Max again. This one was a lot more fun than the last as we headed outside for some shots and he was able to run around. Shots turned out great.
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.
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.
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.
