New Blog!!!

So I've started a new blog, and it's over on Tumblr!

I got a new logo and everything! Go check it out...

I have been the WORST with my Blog!

Ack. I never update this anymore, but do people even read blogs still!? One day I'll revamp this!

If you do, for your viewing pleasure, here are my photos of Occupy Vancouver campers from back in the day in the Jan/Feb issue of Vancouver Magazine.

HAIR-E-OKE!

I've still been neglecting this blog (I'm busyyyyy!) but I have a pretty cool update:

I'm cutting my hair off for cancer and organized an event where the door ($5 cover) goes to the Canadian Cancer Society.

Treelines is playing a set, Weekend Leisure is running karaoke, Phillips is giving away beer for the first 50 people, I'm also running a photobooth!

I'm pretty excited. If you're in Vancouver, you should come.

Megaphone Magazine & Rain City Chronicles Love!

A few of the photos that I took at a Rain City Chronicles event made their way into Megaphone Magazine, a magazine sold on the streets of Vancouver by homeless and low-income vendors here in Vancouver.

Honored to be a part of it and proud of the girls and how much RCC is growing and evolving.

Check out the images below!

Nominated! (Again!)

Big news!

I was nominated for Best Photographer in Vancouver in the Urban Culture Conference & Awards. Even if I don't win this, I am thrilled to be recognized. This Monday May 16th, I will have lived in Vancouver for 3 years. THREE! I guess time flies when you're working to be one of the best photographers in Vancouver...

I could not have got here without the support and encouragement of so many people...including MANY who are nominated for awards as well...
So here is what you do:

Go to: http://urbancultureconference.com

Click on ARTS
Click on Photographer
Vote for me.

That's it! You only vote once, super simple.

If you want to go through the other categories. Vancouver is Awesome is up for 4 BLOG awards including: Lifestyle, Sports, Events and MUSIC (which is me, so definitely give that one love).

Also under ARTS, vote for Sueme for Street Art, and Colin Moore for Fine Arts

Thanks so much. This week coming up isn't super busy so I'll be posting some photo updates!

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!

A photo of mine appeared in the October issue of MORE Magazine...here it is!

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

CBC Open House 2010

The CBC held it's second annual Open House on the 3rd and I spent what felt an entire day there and had a BLAST.

If you want to see a ton of photos from the day, click here to check out the post on VIA!

Below is a shot of me competing against Tyler from Said The Whale in a trivia contest on Lana Gay's show on Radio 3:

What the title says!
