Website Upgrade: New Work, New Look

For the last little while, Martin and I have been working on upgrading and changing my website. The changes have been up for a couple of days so you might have already noticed!

The look of the site and the blog got a complete face lift. I’ve edited down some works so some series have been moved to Flickr, if ever you want to see them. The exciting part of this change is that I’ve added some new work to the site. The Last Sacrifice of Rite, Reverend Grandpapa Ben Lemay and Lost Faces are series that you might have seen bits of on the blog but you can find a more concrete body of work on my works page.

Hope you enjoy the new work and the new look.

The bog, Newfoundland 2009

I think this is a moose print. They like to eat the top of the bog vegetation, but it must get tricky when they start sinking! We were walking safely on the board walk.

It’s been a while, and I’m writing this with a mild tone of sarcasm because it’s been a real long time. Oh well, now the film is half developed and maybe now I can get back on track. This is a shot from my, somewhat recent, trip to Newfoundland.

P.E.I Pool

I was away the last week or so, driving around the east coast with my husband. For a little vacation, a change of scenery, we made it all the way north on the west coast of Newfoundland. I still can’t get over how beautiful the scenery was, driving between huge mountains and sea, saw icebergs, whales, moose and had awesome weather. Now I’m trying to get back into the swing of the city.

Getting back to the computer and checking around, I realized that PX3 had announced the winners for their 2009 competition, which I had entered a while back. I was really happy to see that I had placed 3rd in the student photojournalism sports category with Eight Seconds: The Quebec Rodeos. It’s nice to be up there but I’m shy one spot to be included in the group exhibit of the winners, which is to be held in Paris – ah well, maybe next year! Check out the list of winners.
