Scones!

Who wants tea and crumpets when you can have tea and one of "Langford Foods" scones! Yum!!

 I was asked to shoot some scones for my Uncle's new website.

Langford Foods

The shoot went incredibly well! What's more important are that the scones are AMAZING.  I personally do not like scones they are a dry and blah pastry to go with your tea.  However, these are truly delightful and full of flavour and are not dry at all.  They are sold at Pusateri's and can be wholesaled through the Langford Foods website.

The scones have been such a great hit that I even have a monthly bulk order at my work place. That good; I wouldn't lie! Taste them yourself!

They exceed all tastebud expectations!

REFLECTIONS

During my small product photography class we had to bring in and shoot an aluminium pop can.  

We had to shoot it without reflection.... Ha-ha! 

I had a little difficulty as it reflected everything!!

In post we had to place it on a white background.

This was the best I could get; not bad :P

Make Up Advertising

I am currently enrolled in one of my final photography classes at Sheridan College.  The course I am taking is Small Product Photography.  I am learning the basics of Photoshop and had to edit my photo.

I shot these products which were not brand related.  I had to position them in a flattering way which showcased their contents.  I chose "MAC" as my focal brand so I had to remove the labels off two of the products and then touch up the individual eye shadow squares.  I added a the brand and Bam! There's my ad! Ha-ha!

I made it sound so easy...it really wasn't lol  You would be surprised how much actually goes into small products and advertising.  It is not just point your camera at it and shoot.
However, Look how pretty it looks....this ad says "you want to wear me"......... have I sold you on the products yet? :P

Katie & Adam Engagment

Save The Date!!

Last year in my wedding photography class I recruited my friend Katie and her Fiancé Adam as one of my couples for one of my 'engagement assignments'.  

Later that year I was able to shoot their actual photos with fellow photographer Derek Kneblewski.

It was a beautiful day and with a great assemblage of people on board for the shoot I couldn't have asked for anything better.

{This is final photo chosen with filter for their "STD" invites as Katie put it. Ha-Ha!}

Katie and Adam compliment each other perfectly, they have a convivial sense of humour and are happily in love.  I wish them nothing but the best and can't wait to be personally shooting their wedding this year with Jason Miles Photography

Martin & Wendy Engagement

My Mom's oldest brother my Uncle Martin is engaged!

Of course I took this opportunity to use them as my models for my Wedding photography class. 

These photos were taken on campus and turned out rather well :) 

They were awesome as they stood in for "faux" family wedding formals all day long before we were actually able to get to their engagement photos.

I am happy I was able to take part in something so special for them!  Wishing my Uncle Martin and soon to be Aunt Wendy all the best!

Behind the Scenes

Life infront and behind the camera

I love taking shots of what people normally do not get to see, therefore giving you "the whole picture."

I think that is the documenter in me, creating photo essays to remember and show how or why something has come to be...or..not to be :P 

The process if you will or chronological sequence of how things pan out.

For starters I was called in for an airing on the Shopping Channel.  A curling rod, to which they wanted my quaff in all its glory, untamed!! Ha-ha! No smiling of course, I had to be "very sad" that I had such a ferocious fro!

 

After the "Before" shots were taken we went into the process of curling my hair.  My hair goes down to my lower back so it took a little bit of time.  They left a small section out on my bangs to show on air how simple it was.  Then Viola! like magic I went from 'Sad Fro Girl' to 'Happy Mermaid Hair' hahaha!!

And that kids, is Magic! ;)
