Gracie and Zach and the Death of my Nikon D3.....

If there was any way for my Nikon D3 camera Shutter to finally take its last breath, then there was no better way to have it go while Photographing my Niece and Nephew. The kiddos like always are so much fun and we managed to get them ....(bribe them)...to stand still for 5 min. Big smiles on there faces, I snapped away with the Old Nikon D3, 70-200mm 2.8 and the Sigma 50mm 1.4 ART Lens. On the very last frame the shutter stopped and the good old Err. came up on the screen. I had been wondering about this moment for years. Thinking, will this shoot be the shoot? Oh well. She was a good camera while she lasted and her last images...I think, turned out pretty good!

Taven 9 Weeks Old Photo Samples

Taven 9 Weeks Old Photo Samples

 

Yesterday I took the very cute Taven's 9 Weeks Old pictures! We ended up having to do the shoot over a two day period, due to the fact that Taven was having a bit of a rough Modelling day the on the first day of the shoot, but she really picked up her game on day two!! ;-)

Here are some samples from the 2 days of shooting. I had a great time and can't wait to shoot her at 6 months as well! Cute Summer clothing shoot!!!!

Jenn & Hale's E-Session

Jenn & Hale E-Sesson

Today was a great day for an E-Session. With the sun on our side, I headed out with Jenn and Hale to busy Gastown to try and see what type of great images we could capture. Jenn and Hale walked all around the cobble stone streets; stopping for my camera to smile, jump and yes even kiss!  Hale even came to my rescue when some crazy guy; without his shirt on, grabbed my camera bag and started to walk off with it!!!! I was incredibly thankful that he managed to stopped the thief; and felt rather stunned to think that I have lived in Detroit, traveled through Europe, Panama, Peru & Guatemala and it was here in Vancouver, that I almost lost my photo gear!

Thanks guys for making today incredibly memorable and of course, the Beer!!!

 

Hale told me at the start of the shoot that he wouldn't  jump! Look who's jumping now Hale....

Jenn and Hale met at the Balarney Stone, Gastown!

The trick is to run into the road when there is a brief break in traffic!!!

Loving the Gun's!

Jumping on the back of The Pink Bus!

Cutest Sing in Gastown. Jenn found this gem of a sign. One side say's "don't talk to strangers" and the other side say's "You might fall in love"!

Why a picture with a fan you ask? I say, why not!!! The great couple looking very Hollywood!

Coiba Adventure

Finally I am back after a month long trip to Coiba, Panama. The Marlin Bite was a bit slow, but we filled our freezers with Tuna and enjoyed amazing Lighting Storms, saw huge pods of Sperm Whales, fished in some massive bait balls of Tuna and most importantly all of the crew didn't kill each other after 25 Day's together.

Here are some of the images that I got while out on the water every day. We had a mixture of groups fish with us , check out some of the pictures below!!!
