So today I spent a bunch of time with the buggy Joy to the World Web Summit.  Buggy because I kept having to reload them to get them to fully download before I could listen…But once they did run, they were awesome!

So many ideas and new things to try out.  I don’t even know where to start!  But be assured, new things are going to happen.  Get ready!

Trees!

People people people! Everywhere there’s people! Here’s a shot showing the crowd downstairs. In the far end are two shooting stations and three editors to the right crowded up on a liitle table (seen with the blurry armed girl below). Moving forward there’s Michael at the print station, and a couple of editors on the couches. To my left (out of shot) are two more stations, two more on my right. Heading upstairs is the makeup/prep room and another shooting space. The main theatre has three shoot stations.

Well, the day is here and true to form I’m late! But I’m on the way and it should be a great day!

Okay, I’ve not been doing so good at updating this blog but one of my goals for the coming months is to change that.  Expect more from me here.

This Saturday is the official Help Portrait day.  This international event has some 7000 people at more than 600 locations in about 58 countries all coming together for the common goal of providing a nice portrait for an individual or family who may not be able to afford a professional portrait session.

It’s really quite amazing.  In Edmonton alone we have around 40 photographers helping out in 4 different locations around the city plus a number of volunteers doing everything from greeting people to hair and make up to serving food.  It should be a great day!

If you know of any families who could benefit from such an event, please let them know to visit the Paramount downtown (now the City Centre Church) between the hours of 11:00am and 6:00pm.
