Update!

So here is a quick update.

CMP didn't move on in the Searchlight comp (but thanks for the nom), but VIAindie made it to the TOP TWENTY!

I went on tour with some spectacular boys in March and you can see all of the photos on that tour blog over here. (I probably should have mentioned that before I left).

I'm back in Vancouver and I'm working very very hard.

I'm going to be updating my website, pushing my wedding website live and I will promise to catch up on some retro blogs and keep you more up to date.

I'm not sure to whom I'm speaking, but thanks for stopping by!

Searchlight!

Oh hello there!

If by some miracle you've arrived here via the CBC Radio 3 Searchlight contest...

Thanks for coming!

I've been quite busy with the OTHER blog of mine that is also nominated (VancouverIsAwesome.com Indie)... but I promise I'll do some updates soon!

If you feel the need to vote for me you can DO SO HERE. Although, I'd suggest voting for VIA Indie...because that is 10x more nerdy.

Much love to whomever put my name in the hat for either!

Making Waves

Another day, another great concert at Waves on Howe. This one featuring Bob Kemmis, Behind Sapphire, Steph Macpherson and Rolla Olak:

I Don't Need My Friends To Tell Me Who My Friends Are

Savannah Leigh: A Short

While in Kelowna, I photographed the Music BC VIP reception at Summerhill Winery. They have a pyramid, the acoustics are amazing, so Savannah sang a song and I filmed it.

Break Out West

I was looking forward to going to Break Out West for a long time and it did NOT disappoint. It was my first trip to Kelowna and with 4 days of parties and music, you couldn't go wrong. I had an amazing time, and met many wonderful new people. Hopefully I'll get back to Kelowna again and maybe to THIS next year.

Now, I took about 2000 photos, so I suggest you look at the four posts I did on Vancouver Is Awesome:

Day One
Day Two
Day Three
Western Canadian Music Awards

September in Ontario: Toronto Part Two

There is a big chunk missing photographically here because I was having too much fun. One of my best friends came into town for a weekend and I hauled ass back from Ridgeville to see him for two days. After a brief bit back home my last day in Toronto was spent at the CASBY awards and singing on stage with Hollerado. They're coming to Vancouver on the 12th of November and I am PUMPED....

September in Ontario: Polaris Prize Gala

A magical evening of music and friends and text messages that my backless dress was on TV...

September in Ontario: Toronto Part One

Torontosaurus Rex

DJ C-Mac

I got the chance to work with one of my favourite (former) publications Granville Magazine and shoot some photos for their online magazine.

The article is about how radio isn't dead and they interviewed several of Vancouver's DJs. Which means I got to spend some time with a few of my favourites in some amazing spots around the city...

Here is a LINK to the article, as well as a screen shot, and the images themselves as well.

Vriend Friend

My lovely friend Ann Vriend was in town last weekend and performing at one on my favourite places, the Cocoa Nymph. A talented girl named Anna Boots opened up for Ann and later Rachel even played kazoo for one song. Excellent evening.
