There’s something so exciting to me about seeing the BEFORE and AFTER image of a photo-makeover.

A very big part of a photographers job is the editing process. Post processing an image to me is Art. And it’s one of my favourite parts about my job. I thought it would be fun to show you what the image looks like straight out of the camera, and then the end result once I’ve finished playing with some Photoshop Magic!

Today’s photo shoot turned out fantastic thanks to the beautiful weather we had. It has been a long time since the Fraser Valley has seen blue skies!

If you want some stunning images of yourself or with someone you love, or maybe your kids, book a photo shoot with us! We guarantee that you will love your photos! And never worry about blemishes… that’s what Photoshop is for!

And if you want to see more of this GORGEOUS girl, “like” us on FACEBOOK! We’ll be posting more each day!

I have been so busy with the magazine that I have sadly neglected Photography, but not to worry! I am catching up!

Meet Naomi Parkhouse. A gorgeous 16 year old from Powell River, British Columbia, who loves ballet. Isn’t she STUNNING? This girl has the greatest personality and smile. She may come off a little shy but when she dances she exudes such confidence and grace, and I could see that just from her pulling of random moves for the camera. You know you are passionate about something when you can forget about everything else around you when you’re doing it.

Naomi, you are so beautiful and I can see an incredible future for you in dance or anything else you take on. You will undoubtedly succeed in whatever you choose to do. The world is yours!

Much love!

Candace

Image 1 Salon is one of the greatest Salon’s I’ve ever been to.  Why you might ask?  How long are you willing to sit down and read this for?  ;)  They are incredibly personable, they make you feel welcome every time, they remember you and make every effort to get to know who you are, they’re extremely talented, they smile and laugh A LOT, and they always go above and beyond to make each customer happy.  When you go to Image 1 Salon you leave with a smile, every time.  Please “like” Image 1 Salon on Facebook to share the love and to get the latest updates, contests, announcements, etc.  You truly don’t want to miss a beat with them!

These Images are from Image 1 Salon’s VIP Mixer and Hair Show Event they had on March 31st, 2012 with an Enchanted Forest theme.  What an incredibly fun event!  It had such an awesome vibe in the salon that night and everyone absolutely loved every moment of it from the cocktails and mingling to the fashion show and late night dancing!  I can’t wait to see what they do for their next show!

INTRODUCING the winners for the upcoming commercial shoot!

We had such a great response for the model search for the upcoming commercial shoot.  I want to thank all of the great young ladies that entered and that wanted to be apart of this great opportunity.  You are all so beautiful!  The winners have already been announced on Facebook, and yes I am very slow at getting this up on the blog!  It’s been a bit of a hectic couple of weeks for me.  But I’m finally catching up!  :)

Like I mentioned in my post on my business Facebook page, I personally scouted for the male model role. From the very beginning I had one person in mind. I had seen him quite a few times, as I work at the Max Cameron Theatre in Brooks Secondary School part time, and he just fit the look so perfectly.  So I looked everywhere and eventually found him and asked him if he’d be interested!  He was interested!  I was so excited!  Now that I had the perfect male model for the role it was time to match him with the perfect female model.  So… please welcome the first model in our commercial shoot: CHRIS BRINTON! He’s tall, handsome and musically talented in many different areas including the guitar, and goes to Brooks Secondary School.  Just wait until you see this guy rock the photo shoot!

As for the female role, this girl had to fit perfectly with Chris.  Now it was all about him and matching him with the perfect female model.  I needed someone who could potentially have great chemistry with him in front of the camera.  As soon as I saw the pictures of one of the girls that applied for the position, I immediately thought “how perfect is she?”  She fits the description, the look, and she fits perfectly with my male model!  I even got the opinion of my Finance and Project Managers and they both agreed that these two were absolutely perfect for this shoot! So please welcome the second model in our commercial shoot: RENEE RASMUSSEN! She’s beautiful, feminine, has the petite frame that I needed for this particular shoot, has an awesome energetic and bubbly personality, and I can see her and Chris getting along great.

CONGRATULATIONS to my two awesome models!  This is going to be a great shoot!  I’m super excited about it.  The shoot will be happening in the next 2-3 weeks!  Stay tuned for pictures!!!
