Family Photos – Melanie, Peter, Brittany & Renee

Travis Jon — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 02:21:09 +0000

I was honoured to be asked to donate a Family Portrait session at a silent auction this spring to support one of our local schools. Because I spent so much time at camp this summer it wasn’t until September that I was able to meet with Melanie and Peter and their daughters Brittany and Renee. We had a great shoot at their home on a beautiful Friday night.

Thank you for the chance to get to know your family!

Their dog’s name is Travis. I felt like I was being told to “sit” all night long…

Alicia & Conor’s Engagement

I spent a great sunny fall Sunday afternoon in London with Alicia and Conor. Alicia is an long-time friend and canoe-trip buddy of mine (ask her about taking her purse on trip that one time) and it has been so great to get to know Conor in the last few years.

We shot at a couple of well known London landmarks like the Red Roaster in Old South, The bridge behind the courthouse and at Joe Kool’s.

This is Zoe. She’s very head tilty.

It’s going to be an amazing November wedding! We can hardly wait.

Spencer Blake Music

How was your Thanksgiving weekend? I was super-excited to spend the morning on Saturday shooting some promo pictures for our youngest son Spencer. He is working this year on getting out there as a musician and I have been doing what I can to help with promotion.

All bias aside… he’s brilliant. You can listen to some of the music that Spencer has written on his Facebook Fan Page: http://www.facebook.com/SpencerBlakeMusic

We were lucky to have some good weather and got to shoot in Woodstock and out at my Grandfather’s place in Innerkip. He still has a small hobby barn on his property and it seemed like a perfect setting for us to shoot with my brother-in-law, Mike’s, great old VW van.

A couple of pictures of Spencer’s girlfriend Stephanie as the assistant. She held the lights for me while Beth was doing all of the running around adjusting flash power and zoom.

Gotta have some shade:

Sometimes there is just no room for a flash stand…

Anniversary Flamingos

We were at a great anniversary party on the weekend for two of our favourite people. It was full of police officers so we’ll have to be content with this shot of the front yard full of flamingos.
