I grew up with my fair share of surrealism. Just sayin’…

Ah Amsterdam! You are so much fun! My week spent there had totally cemented my adoration for it. It was all bout work and Art this time! I want to go back already! Here is a slideshow with a few pictures I shot with my iPhone! Enjoy!

There is more on my FB page too!

It’s been a few years since I went last. But the week I just spent in Amsterdam cemented my love for this gorgeous city completely. This time it was all about work and art. I really hope I’ll get to go back soon! Very soon!

Here is a little slideshow of some of the pictures I took while I was there. Enjoy!

At long last! Haha! Here it is, the Yoga Dominatrix!
I have been telling my yoga teacher, that I have this visual of her walking around the class in leather gear with whip in her hand, as she is teaching the yoga class. It’s not that she is bossy (well, maybe just a little!), it’s more about me subjecting myself to this pain under her direction. Pain that actually feels really good and is the reason why I keep coming back for more. The pain that makes me feel, like maybe I may be a bit of a masochist.
Here is a little video by the amazing Amanda Lowe

And here is the finished product:

I hope you love it as much as I do! Thank you Josie Houpt for being such a fantastic yoga teacher and friend and for being a sport and putting on the leather outfit!, You looked hot!!!
Chrys Muszka! Thank you so much for playing along and letting me put the dog collar on you! And holding those poses for EVER like you did, so that I could get a shot!
Thank you Terri Dacquisto for the wonderful styling job and playing along even when I come up with the craziest ideas! Thank you Mila Veronica! The hair and make-up were PERFECT!
And no small thanks to Kula studio, for letting us use the fantastic space for this!

I haven’t been lazy, I’ve been busy! Really busy working on new stuff to show off soon! There is my FB page, that I use as somewhat of a photo diary. Check it out and Like, if you like it!

So a lot has happened in the last month or so! Very exciting news I haven’t had the time to share here yet! And since I keep getting asked for the link to the short film I shot with an amazing team and ended up winning first place in the 24 hour Toronto Film Challenge, here it is!

There is a long story that could be made into a movie that comes with this short film! It was a long day and night! Very long! But really fun, filled with hard work, tons of creativity, positive energy and love! This was my first try as a DOP other than documentary style work and camera work.
This was a new experience and I really love it! I hope there will be other opportunities for us to make more short films together in the future! The team was fantastic! Damon Runyan, the director gave me this opportunity and there was no way I would turn it down! Damon and Jodie Dowdall Runyan, his lovely wife and the producer on this film did a great job as well as the rest of the crew, all fantastic actors, Kristi Angus, Justin Mader, Darius Jones and Carlos Velis. The editing was done by a creative and fast editor as well as a very brave man who broke his leg the night we won and celebrated, hope he’s feeling better, Sean Stanley!
And I have thanked my Big Daddy personally twice now, but will thank again! Thank you Hasnain! And Thank you Zach for being so kind and letting us use your gear!

But I really want to know what YOU think! So leave me a comment!

Last Saturday we drove with my assistant Adam up to Collingwood area. A beautiful place called Timpano Farms. It was a crisp morning, but it was sun filled and gorgeous!

My friend Lance is writing and recording beautiful country songs and we went up to a horse farm to photograph him. The images are still in works, but here is a couple I just love and couldn’t wait to share!

Thank you boys!

Do I need to say more?
