SUMMER SOLSTICE
June felt like it was going by quickly. Weather had been on the cooler side and I wasnβt finding enough time to get out. Something I never want to do is let work consume my life so I was itching to get out and walk by the falls. Then I remembered that June 21 would be the official start of summer and I decided that would be my day. The city was calling so I had to see what was going on, and it did not disappoint. The Falls was alive with people, nature and good vibes! I had so much fun on this photowalk

LONG EXPOSURE ON THE HILL
I got creative with the lights on the Hill and tried some long exposure. Colour grading these shots to be more green and orange helped create an abstract style photo that has been inspiring me lately. Light streaks, some blur, bold colours and a simple palette are elements I want to explore more to achieve the look I want, and this was a great session to experiment. At the end of the gallery are some shots of Rain to practice some street portrait photography

PORTRAITS WITH JESSICA
Street photography is a candid practice where street portraiture is a directed practice. Both use the streets and natural light to form compositions. Street portraits can be harder to create sometimes. I have Rain who is so easy to take pictures of but I need to experience other energies if I want to reach new growth. So this session I met up with Jessica in Hamilton for some badass portraits with her car

TURKEY POINT
October my family decided to go to a cottage in a beach town. It did not seem like I would be venturing outside much due to weather but it stayed pretty nice out and we were able to explore the local downtown, walked the surrounding neighbourhood and my brother drove us up to a nice vista overlooking what I think was a swamp which was the best part of the trip. I was able to get some inspiration pockets spread throughout this time and got some really nice images to show for it

WELLAND CRUISE NIGHT
Took a walk around a local parking lot car show with my Nikon d5100. This is one of my favourite summer activities because people love showing off their cars, I love admiring them, and you get to see them all in one place
