Hey it’s not glamorous or rock star shooting but it sure does fill in nicely for slow days. It was a bit weird hearing myself say “Hold it right there, gorgeous…”

Soundtrack for the shoot included Wake Owl’s album The Private World Of Paradise.

Fun day shooting headshots for the team at Proactive Pelvic Health Centre. There was little room to work in their location but I had scouted it out an earlier date to figure out what I needed. One Elinchrom RX600 with the Elinchrom beauty dish set up with a storm grey background paper. Pictured here is Carolyn, a Practitioner of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Thanks to Ange.

Thanks to Colette for her assistance.

Fun morning shooting some corporate headshots for Carolyn.

Soundtrack for the shoot was the Ultra Chilled Compilation Volume 6 to fit the mood.

Another great day shooting products for Michele’s Organics. The simple but effective set designs really compliment these beautiful skin care products. I have to thank Michele once again for being so well prepared which made for an efficient and enjoyable shoot.

Thanks to Colette for her assistance.

Soundtrack for the shoot included Calexico’s new album Algiers.

Great day shooting the latest collection of bags from Espiritu Folk Knitwear at the studio. It was great to work with Maria (owner and designer of Espiritu Folk Knitwear) as I met her at The Clothing Show a couple of seasons ago and loved her knitwear designs that she showcased on the runway. She had contacted me regarding her latest collection of handbags for her online catalogue and we will be working together again soon shooting her new knitwear designs.

Thanks to Colette for her assistance and taking care of the details by stuffing, poking, pulling, straightening, puffing, flattening…the bags.

Soundtrack for the afternoon included Morcheeba’s album Charango.

I was asked to photograph Debashis Sinha’s latest sound and video installation presented by the Toronto Free Gallery and SAVAC.  This was the last day of the one month exhibition and I was glad to not only photograph the exhibition but also to absorb myself with the sights, sounds, smells, images and objects of the installation.

Another fun day shooting some products for Michele’s Organics.  Great skincare products with scents that drive me wild and I just love the Vetiver Cream for Men.  Once again we went with simple set designs and a high key clinical lighting set up that works great with her products.  Visit www.michelesorganics.com for more information on Michele, her company and her products.

Music for the afternoon included Amos Lee’s self titled album, Last Day At The Lodge album, and Thievery Corporation’s album The Cosmic Game.

Boots Montano and her daughter Claudine Montano from Century 21 needed some new photos for their marketing strategy.  Claudine and her fiance, Mike Monago just recently joined Boots at St Andrew’s Realty Inc. and now the family are ready to take the real estate market by storm!

Soundtrack for the shoot was Morcheeba’s new album Blood Like Lemonade and the self titled album of the Brand New Heavies.

Fun day shooting Michele’s Organics new products for her website.  Great products for him/her, babies and even dogs.  At one point Michele thought it would be a good idea to put her dog Roxy as part of the set for her dog products and it worked great!  Roxy was a trooper behaving and holding her poses like a true model.  This shot was my favourite from the day.  Clean and simple with an effective set design by Michele.

Check out Michele’s website to learn more about her wonderful products (Colette’s already hooked and I’ve got to admit I love the scent of that Jasmine perfume).
