I spent some time in my photo studio this afternoon. I had Carley and Chad come for a maternity photo session. Carley was one of the bridesmaids from a wedding I shot last summer and it was great to see her again. I had a great time and I hope you like the photographs.

This morning I did another photo assignment for AirdrieLIFE magazine. This time I was asked to take some photographs at Rainbow Salvage and Demolition Ltd. here in Airdrie.

Here are a couple of photographs from two assignements that I did today for AirdrieLIFE magazine. Don Doal (left photo) is 87 years old and plays darts. He hopes to qualify for the 55+ Summer games this summer. Matt Fraleigh (right photo) is a leasing manager from First Capital, I photographed him at their new Dixon Trail retail complex.

This Saturday I was asked to photograph for Mount Royal College and also for AirdrieLIFE magazine. I spent my evening shooting hockey, Mount Royal College Cougars played against SAIT's Trojans. Hockey is not my favorite sport to photograph because I get cold being so close to the ice for so long; but I still had a good time. I used AlienBees strobe lights and PocketWizards for all of these shots.

In the morning I spent some time photographing an arm wrestling tournament hosted by the CLAWS of Airdrie Arm Wrestling Club. I had to take some photographs of local champions Darrell Belyk and James Bowen.

Yesterday I was hired to photograph a couple of volleyball games for Mount Royal College Cougars, who played against Red Deer College Kings and Queens. I had an awesome time and tried to be creative with my shots. I tried using slow shutter speed on some of the shots and tried more unusual angles. I used AlienBees strobe lights and some PocketWizards for all of these shots. Here are some of my favorite shots, I hope you like them :)

I'm getting ready to photograph a couple of volleyball games but I thought I would post some shots that I just did for AirdrieLIFE magazine. This family runs a business where they all go out every Friday and do curbside pick-up for about 75 customers in Airdrie. I will talk to Tracy and who knows, maybe we can be one of their customers as well.

This morning I had an other assignment for the AirdrieLIFE magazine. I had to photograph Lee Krause and Marcus Cormier from Cantest at their office.

I was pretty busy today driving around and looking for some new furniture for my photo studio. I think I finally found some stuff so my studio will get a nice upgrade. I also took some photographs of my good friend Alex Iron, who is a great real estate agent and also a photographer.

This morning I took some more photographs for AirdrieLIFE magazine. This time I was asked to attend a meeting of Probus Club.

I had to do some portrait work for the AirdrieLIFE magazine this morning. It is hard to come up with something creative when you have a very limited time and you need to take a portrait in a very small room without anything in it.

Today I had a chance to shoot some basketball games. Winston Churchill High School team played in a tournament in Okotoks and they hired me to take some shots of two of their games.

I'm back home in Airdrie! I'm also back to work and less tropical assignments :) Today I photographed Jon Boyle and his team at Rangeland Conservation Service Ltd for AirdrieLIFE magazine.

Tomorrow we are leaving Sandos Caracol here in Mexico and going home to Calgary. We had a great vacation but I'm excited to go home! Today we spent our day at Xcaret park. If you are on your way to Mexico, I strongly recommend to visit Xcaret! They have a great aquarium and many birds and animals but the greatest part for me was snorkeling!

I was snorkeling for about 3 hours straight and got super tired diving and chasing fish around and trying to take some good photographs with my point and shoot camera with an underwater case. I think I would need to be diving and not snorkeling if I will want to take any decent shots in the future.

In the evening they had a great show! The show pretty much took us though the history of Mexico. Tracy and I already saw this show a couple of years ago but it was great to see it again!

Here you can see a photo of me, taking a walk along the beach as I did every day so far. This evening I took some photographs of pelicans and their life coexisting with tourists and local fishermen.

This morning we woke up early and right after breakfast took a taxi to Playa del Carmen, where we walked around and did some shopping. While we were there we noticed that there are many wireless Internet spots around so I will comeback and upload all this to the Internet tomorrow :)

At Playa del Carmen we boarded a ferry and took a 30 min boat trip to Cozumel, a pretty big Island off the coast of Mexico. There we stopped for lunch and spent the rest of the day walking around and swimming.

Our resort has a pretty nice spa so here are a few photographs of my sister and my dad enjoying themselfs.

Another day in paradice! We spent today at the resort, not really doing anything speciall, just a little exploring here and there. I still wasn't able to get the Internet so I'm just doing updates on my laptop and hoping that I will be able to upload sometime soon.

It is very beautiful here at night so I decided to go around and take some night photographs of the resort with all the nice lights. I don't have my tripod with me but I think it still worked out pretty good.
