Here’s a photo I took of my tv and the credits of the MMVA’s! Yes, that is my name on tv. You all know somebody famous now… atleast I like to keep telling myself that.

I finally have gotten around to taking some photos of my MOO cards that I had printed up! Straight from my flickr to your hand, you can now potentially be a lucky person to be given one of these! Hopefully I can hand some out before Chantelle’s mom decides that she wants them ALL!

Only 3 photos to look at, but why wouldnt you just look through the real thing not cards of my photos!

Next on our Birthday adventure with Brent was a tour at the Steam Whistle Brewery! We showed up at 4:40 to sign up for the 5:00 tour, only to be told that they weren’t taking any more people on the 5:00 tour… that being said, they gave us all a free sample ticket, and we entered the brewery. We walked up to the bar, only for Brent to complain that it was his birthday and he wanted to really go on the tour.. next thing we know, he’s been given a full pint of beer, a free glass, and gotten us on the tour… So by 5:00 rolls around, he’s had his second free pint, and we then took the tour, all of us each pulling the ’steam whistle’.. Oh how I’m hooked on this beer now! Processing the photos, they all looked even more amazing once I turned them black & white, or highly de-saturated. A great addition to anybodys bar! Check out the set!

My Cousin Brent came down with a few of his friends for his birthday, so we first headed to the Rogers Centre to catch a Jays Game.. Due to the crazy traffic, we ended up missing the first couple of innings, but ended up snagging some nosebleed seeds.. but in all reality, the Jays never sell out these days. The seats weren’t that bad for $11. Take a look through the set to see our view and a few pics of the famous Dome!

The Cottage!

The Cottage - 2007_06_26

Just this past weekend we drove up to Haliburton to our friends Emily & Colin’s cottage. Unfortunately my battery charger was stolen after the MMVA’s, so my battery had died the first day we were there. Long story short, I only ended up taking a handful of photos. The cat in the set is Ollie (a.k.a. The Buddy), whom loves being outside, but has to have his leash on, otherwise he would run away towards all the many many chipmunks there. Have a look, and enjoy!

MMVA’s!

MMVA’s 2007 - 2007_06_17

I was gone for most of last week, so I’m only finally posting this now! I had the chance to be a photographer at the MMVA’s this year, and wow was it a great experience! I arrived early Sunday morning and was there to take photos of the rehearsals of Billy Talent, Fergie, The Used, Avril and Alexisonfire! My work rented a cool wide angle lens, as well as some wicked zoom lenses, that myself and Wendy (the other MuchMusic photographer) got to use… and now after using one, I can easily put it on my wish list!

There was an insane amount of screaming fans there! WOW! I wasn’t directly on the red carpet, but was in a great spot by the main front doors and Much Environment stage, so I could see all the celebs walk down the road and sign autographs! The highlight of the night was being on the roof of the CHUM CTVglobemedia Building for the Finger Eleven performance. The experience only made me want to learn more about taking concert photos, and forcing myself to use the Manual mode more on my camera. In the set on my flickr, is only a selected few from what I shot that night.. for more photos, check out showmeyours.tv, or muchmusic.com!
