I have talked about the Professional Photographers of Canada and the Professional Photographers of Ontario before, here, on my blog. Not only am I an active member, but I am also an accredited member in several categories (a blog post coming soon about this), an active speaker and educator for the PPOC and PPOC-Ontario, and an active board-member for the Hamilton/Niagara branch of the PPOC-Ontario.

On Monday, we had our PPOC-Ontario Hamilton/Niagara Photo-Safari, where we got together for a fun morning at Balls Falls, photographing some models, having a BBQ and socializing.

Thanks to our models, Alex, Chloe and Becca. Here's a few of my favourite images. Enjoy!

Last week, we met up with the Sacco family at their beautiful cottage in Port Colborne for some family portraits. This is a great time of the year to think about family portraits; summer is coming to a close, the kids will be back in school again soon with some maybe even leaving for far away (University). The weather is perfect - not too hot, not too cold, and the twilight that we have been having around sunset time has never been better!

Enjoy some of these portraits on the beach and in and around the Sacco's cottage. Thanks guys for hanging out ... cannot wait to show you the rest of the images!

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when I say "Senior Portraits"? If you are Canadian, you are likely thinking "Pictures of my Grandparents", aren't you?

In the United States, every single Grade-12 (Senior-Year) student has a "Senior Portrait Session", where they have a session with their choice of photographer, outside of school hours, and create amazing images and portraits that unique portray their personality and talents.

Doesn't that sound more like the grad portrait that you would want? Something that is unique, fun, and exciting, as opposed to cookie-cutter, dull and boring?

I got together with Mercedes last week for a portrait session with her horse, Val. They share an amazing connection together, and while Val wasn't totally comfortable with me yet, we created some amazing images together!

Mercedes's Mom and Dad run "Forest Green Creations", here in Fonthill. You likely remember Todd from my Portraits of Pelham session. This a great, Fonthill-based family, and they are lovely people.

Enjoy some of my favourites from our session with Mercedes!

I met up with Marni this afternoon for her prom portrait session. Marni is graduating from Eden High in St. Catharines, and has been given a full-scholarship to a University in the U.S. for her athletic abilities in tennis. Isn't that amazing?

Marni's mother, Darleen, wanted some beautiful, realxed, professional portraits of Marni to document this time in her life.

Do you have a son/daughter graduating this year? Are you graduating this year? What a great way to celebrate than to have professional portraits taken during this exciting time in your life! Give me a call at (289) 897-9523 or e-mail me at for more information and pricing!

The photographic industry in the Niagara Region is full of wonderful people and great photographers. I am proud to call many of Niagara's finest wedding and portrait photographers my friends.

A lot of people consider photographers competitors, when in fact, that couldn't be further from the truth. Every photographer has their own style, personality, and business philosophy, and they attract couples and clients who resonate with them. There are no two photographers who are identical in style, personality and business philosophy, and therefore, we all attract our own set of clients.

Therefore, we can all be friends! Woo hoo!

I founded and organize a large group of local professional wedding and portrait photographers that I called "We Niagara Photographers". It started off a few years ago with going out for coffee with a few of us, and now there are over 60 photographers in the "group", and we get together every month to socialize, hang out, shoot, learn, and have fun.

This past Friday, I organized our We Niagara Photographers get-together to first have breakfast at the lovely Cora's in Niagara Falls, and then out for a photo-shoot.

Here are a few of the images that I created while out on the photo-session, with Emma and Ally. Big thanks to the girls for coming out and modelling for us!

Enjoy!
