I took this photo at Bellamere Winery and Event Centre in London Ontario.Time
This was taken on November 15, 2014 around 8 a.m. I remember being at work setting up for a wedding and having a particularly hard day. I always tend to remove myself from people when I’m fighting back tears and headed behind the property where we have this massive field.Lighting
The lighting, coming through the fog and glistening through the trees, more remembered as a memory and feeling. I didn’t go out to this field because I wanted to take a photo, there was no plan, it just happened.Equipment
This was absolutely taken with an iPhone. I really wish I still had the original that I didn’t crop.Inspiration
I was absolutely caught up in the moment, my mother had passed away on November 25, 2013 and the first anniversary of it was coming up. What made it really hard is that we worked at the same establishment and my mom was the brides planner. Here I was, standing on the edge of this massive field, and the fog was so amazing and thick. I’m bawling my eyes out, so mad and angry at the world that she was taken away from us too soon. To be honest, once I stilled, really stilled did I realize the moment I had with that field. Everything was so quiet, except the humming of bugs hiding in the grass. It felt like being in a peaceful, but beautiful snowball glass but without the snow.Editing
I was heavily into the app “camera plus” at the time. I used it to to make the photo more vibrant in colours.In my camera bag
These days: my canon rebel t2i dslr with my nifty 50 lens, 100mm macro lens , 4 batteries, 2 large memory cards, my iPad Pro with its ipencil, a tethering cord, laptop, fake ice cubes, garnishing tongs, remote shutter, a spray bottle of half glycerin, half water and my lip chap!Feedback
No matter what you are going through, don’t hesitate to take a moment to capture it. My mom was my best friend and though it has been almost 7 years since she passed, a day doesn’t go by that I won’t hesitate to capture a moment im in whether it’s happy or sad. I’ve missed some moments not doing this, later hoping that I had. Although, she would have said that moment was meant just for you.
