Oh man I have been waiting to post these forever. Marta, Jeff, Alicja and I shot beautiful Hanna back in October of last year and a publication in Helsinki just published it for us. Yay! The link to the magazine is here.
Here is an editorial we shot for a feature Plaid Magazine was writing on Canadian designer Krane.

Here is the final of the video I styled at the beginning of the year with Director Kaelen Ohm. What an incredibly talented team of creative people on set, I'm looking forward to more of these.

This is an editorial we shot one year ago for a specific publication that unfortunately never got off the ground. Fashion Copious to the rescue published it for us last month here.
Woah! Just noticed how long it's been since my last post....my best friend had a baby, does that count as a good excuse?
Before my dear friends Wilkosz & Way moved their careers and lives to Berlin, I had a chance to shoot with them a few more times. One of the shoots was the beautiful light reflecting Samantha Savage Smith. This girl is not only a talented singer songwriter but also truly lovely to style and shoot.
Here are a few behind the scene shots from the day. I can't wait to see the finals!
The talented Kaelen Ohm is at it again. She is working on her third fashion film, this time inspired by Caitlin Power's Spring Summer 2012 collection. It should be finished soon, here are some behind the scene shots of the day in the meantime.
Back in October I was lucky enough to be asked to assist the Fashion Editor for the Globe and Mail on location at Storm Mountain Lodge near Banff. I was in great company as my close pals Wilkosz & Way were the photographers and Alicja Wilkosz was the make-up artist as well as my cabin roommate. The lodge was extremely welcoming of us and the food was homemade, hearty and delicious.

I thought I would devote a post to some of the talented jewelry designers I know (and some I wish I new).
First up is Ebony Fleur, one of two incredible ladies behind Make Believe. Ebony has branched out on her own and is creating beautiful bold geometric pieces. Wilkosz & Way shot her look book recently and I was there to help with the styling logistics. Gorgeous Johanna Stickland modelled for it. Here are some of the shots. Make up by Alicja Wilkosz.
Next is Dara Humniski, one of the talented Loyal Loot Collective. Dara is a multi-talented artist, designer and all around amazing friend and human being. Dara started making jewelry last year and seems to have a natural knack for it (like everything she puts her hand to). Here are a few of my favourite pieces. She just launched a new website that showcases all of her work. Check it out here.
The next designer, Bjørg I don't know but wish I did! She has some truly unique and covet worthy pieces and a really haunting video look book. I love love love the Odyssey collection which is featured below along with the video.
And last but not least is my friend Erin Ignacio who goes by John James in the professional world, is a talented artist and graphic designer on top of being a fantastical jewelry designer. I've been lucky to use many of her pieces for editorials and they truly steal the show every time. You can view all her work here. The shots below were part of her most recent look book and shot by Wilkosz & Way and modelled by Calgary's It girl Ania Boniecka.
Finally, here are the images from the shoot we did with Diamond Rings. He is a magnificent subject to style and shoot. I hope to have the opportunity again.
