Snow Day Street Portraits // 20.01.22

One of my favourite genres of street photography is “street portraits.” It’s not something I’ve been practicing as frequently as I would like to, but I’m hoping to change that. When I started shooting I definitely did a lot more of this. I’ve been trying to carry around my Fuji X100V with me everywhere, so hopefully that will open up more opportunities to shoot some strangers.

The other day, here in Toronto, we got walloped with a big snow fall. I decided to go out to shot some photos while the snow was falling. I managed to get some interesting street portraits. Here are some of my greatest hits from that day.

WILD WINTER WEATHER // POTD 17.01.22

If you are living in the GTA I’m sure you are aware of the intense amount of snow we woke up to. After digging myself out of my house I was able to get out to snap some pictures of people trying to make their way to work. We also wrapped the day with an absolutely beautiful sunset. Pretty dramatic day when it comes to weather.

Bonus points to me for CBC News using the image of people lined up on the Danforth waiting for the bus in one of their web stories from today. Woo!

Respiratory Therapist Week 2021 // POTD 08.11.21

I spent an afternoon on one of the intensive care units at Trillium Health Partners to gather some images for Respiratory Therapist Week. RT’s plays an integral role in caring for patients with COVID-19. It is amazing to watch these teams work together to care for their patients.

Richmond Cycle Track Street Art Project 3 // POTD 23.07.21

I’ve been hired to document the creation of some new street art murals here in Toronto. 125 artists are creating 353 murals along the bicycle track on Richmond Avenue. I attempted to shoot this entire project on my Fuji Film X100V. It was an interesting experiment and I think I’m pretty happy with the results. From the feedback I’ve received from the StART Toronto it seems like they are happy with the results as well.

I’m going to write a review on this camera based on my experience shooting this project. Keep an eye out for that. For now here is the last image I took of this project. Hope to work with this team more in the future.

Richmond Cycle Track Street Art Project 2 // POTD 15.07.21

I’ve been hired to document the creation of some new street art murals here in Toronto. 125 artists are creating 353 murals along the bicycle track on Richmond Avenue. Can’t wait to share more of these images once the project is complete! For now here is a trio from a small section of the bike-able street art gallery.
