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.

Toronto Star Article: Nurse connects ICU patient with his family

I shot some images for The Toronto Star. It’s been a while since I’ve had anything news related published. It was nice to shoot some images for a positive COVID-19 related story. The article can be found HERE. It’s free too, because The Toronto Star has made all of their COVID-19 related content free to access to the public. Good guy Toronto Star! Here is the image they used, as well as a few of the outtakes.

Long Time No Post // POTD 07.12.19

I have been neglecting my social media accounts and website lately. I swear there is a good reason! I’ve been in the process of starting a new job. I’m no longer working in electronic field production with Woodbine Entertainment Group. Just this week I started my new roll with the communications team at Trillium Health Partners as their video production specialist. I can’t wait to share some of the new content I’ll be creating.

For now I’ll share this fun pair of images from Sri Lanka. The edit on these were inspired by an incredible set of photos from a photographer named Richard Mosse taken in the Congo using Kodak Aerochrome film. The film renders the lush green landscape into a surreal array of pinks and reds. Unfortunately this type of film has been discontinued and is extremely tough to come. I couldn’t get my hands on any so I just did my best to replicate it in Photoshop. I hope you enjoy. :)

TSN Woodbine Mile Feature - Meet Track Photographer Michael Burns Jr.

Meet Woodbine's legendary track photographer, Michael Burns Jr.

While at Woodbine Entertainment I’ve often found myself working in close quarters with Michael Burns, but I haven’t ever really had the chance to chat with him for any extended period of time. While shooting this feature I basically shadowed Burns for a couple days, so naturally we had a lot of time to talk. It was a great opportunity for me as a photographer to see how he works and pick his brain. I had a great time following him around and getting some insight into his daily workflow. Not only is he an amazing photographer but he is also a stand-up-guy.

I was blessed with some amazing light on a few of these shoot days which was really great, especially when you’re telling the story of a photographer. Below are a few screen grabs of the incredible light we were blessed with.

This feature was shot for the TSN Woodbine Mile Show which aired on September 14, 2019.
