My partner’s birthday was a few weeks ago, and to celebrate we had a wee backyard barbecue with friends and neighbours. I brought out my Yashica T2 loaded with Portra 800 to catch a few sweet summer moments.

Family Vacation in Lanark County, Ontario
Can’t get enough of summertime at the family cottage on Farren Lake. I shot these with my Canon AE-1 on that old standby, Fuji Superia.
Kasha Konaka
Kasha is a Vancouver-based circus artist and coach who specializes in contortion. We worked together on this shoot on a rainy day in April. Queen Elizabeth Park was just starting to bloom, and the dark sky and that bright, rainforest green made those first flowers glow.
Shorba Broth Bar
After making headshots together, Shorba Broth Bar owner Mithalee Rawat enlisted me to shoot some photos of her bone broth for her website. Let me tell you, the smell in the kitchen that day was something else.
Mithalee Rawat
Mithalee Rawat started her business making organic homemade bone broth this spring, and on a visit to shoot some of her products, we popped outside for a quick headshot. We met in Mount Pleasant, home of her first pop-up, to take advantage of colourful buildings and old brick.
This wasn’t a full session, but I still can’t resist sharing my favourite photo. Little bit of film, little bit of spring light, and one killer shade of lipstick. *chef’s kiss*
Dr. Mair Cayley
Dear friend and all around excellent human Dr. Mair Cayley needed new headshots to go on their shiny new private practice website (I made it! Check it out!) so we spent some time at Spanish Banks on a sunny afternoon.

My family has a spot on Green Lake, outside 70 Mile House, and I got to spend the weekend there recently hanging out with my aunts and uncles and cousins and even grandparents! The lake is so gorgeous, crystal clear forever and the perfect temperature. And the family were all good sports when I kept whipping out my Yashica T2, loaded up with Ektar 100.
Can’t Lit
Everyone’s favourite literary podcast, Can’t Lit, needed a refresh in the form of some new photos, so we hit the Nelson Park community garden and had some fun. We shot a combo of film and digital, and the photos below are shot on a roll of expired Black’s film. Remember Black’s? They were in every strip mall in the Ontario suburbs I grew up in, and they had that jingle. Black’s is photooography. Is it in your head now? You’re welcome.
