Jack the house cat taking a nap.

Morning of wedding day. Though Lily had a dress ready to go, she was not part of the day.

Had a friend take this for me. Still love it. Very classic looking.

Just the right moment to capture this beauty.

A very beautiful sunset on the lake.

Perfect breeze at the right time to create such an effect. My favourite shot of the wedding.

A bride on her special day.

One of the many wonderful shots from a wedding I was grateful to be part of. A moment never to be forgotten.

A friend sitting comfortably on the sand at the beach.

A perfectly timed sunset. The best one I have done up to this point.

A very beautiful mix of just the right amount, placement of clouds & position of the sun.

At a friend's place & her cat is very photogenic.

One of my favourite photos from this country - western themed wedding.

A self portrait.

A new location brings a different sunrise. Such a perfect spot for a beautiful shot.

Rose in the garden.

Took this a couple years back.

Behind The Lens

Location

I was cat sitting a friend a while back. This chair was one of the cats favourite spot to lay down.

Time

It was during the day time.

Lighting

There was some natural light coming in.

Equipment

My Canon 5D, 430 flash unit, 75 - 200 mm zoom lens.

Inspiration

I have not captured this kind of action shot. As it is so very different & unique I was determined to do so.

Editing

Yes. I did. My thought process was to keep it: clean, simple & find how to make the image make sense. Some photos look better in bright colours, while others are better suited in B & W. The end result as it turned out made sense overall.

In my camera bag

Camera body, 24 - 105 lens, 430 flash, batteries, memory cards.

Feedback

Be patient & have your camera ready. This shot was pendent on the cat yawning wide, when I was around.
