Here’s a light-test from a recent shoot I did for Simon Fraser University.

It’s part of a creative campaign I’m working on for SFU Continuing Studies. The slogan for this particular shoot is “Think Author” — the photos will be used to promote the university’s creative writing programs.

Simon Fraser University has commissioned me to shoot their Continuing Studies 2012 Creative Campaign. We will be doing 12 to 15 shoots over the course of the summer — we shot the cover for SFU’s catalog on Kitsilano beach. Art direction and design by Chanda Stallman. Model: Gurjinder Basran, author of Everything Was Good-bye [Penguin 2012] and a graduate of SFU’s The Writer’s Studio. Assistance from Amy Robertson, Marketing and Communications Coordinator at SFU. The catalog was mailed out last week and is available at libraries and skytrain stations across Metro Vancouver.

Lauren Johnson – LTJ Psychotherapist

Lauren Johnson hired me to shoot images and video for her new website. Lauren is a Vancouver psychotherapist who takes a candid approach to her counselling. Our aim with this shoot was to capture some of her warmth and quirky personality. We also wanted to create images that reflect her creative edge — encouraging clients to express their creativity is an important part of her counselling practice.

Thanks for the fun shoot, Lauren!

A few photos from a couple of different corporate headshot sessions this week:

I’m enjoying all the corporate shoots around town this month — it’s a nice way to reacclimatize to Vancouver after a month in Kenya. Pictured first is Ben Chimes, Vancouver real-estate agent with Re/max Select Properties (Westside, Platinum Club). Next is Ginnie Schuster Cramer, a clinical psycotherapist here in Vancouver. Locations: Downtown, Gastown, and Jericho, in the spring rain. Happy Easter everyone!
