Gotta clean up my desk so I can go through yesterday's photos from the Durham Region Roller Derby bout. Fingers crossed I got some good shots. Still getting back into the swing of shooting things and was trying out a new lens (Auto focus? Omg what? We haven't had that in forever!)

Did some photos at the Durham Region Roller Derby season closer against Hogtown Roller Derby on the weekend. Only stayed for the first game but got lots of shots. (Some of these photos are a little out of focus as I was shooting full manual which is difficult to keep up with the action. But if they could do it in that days before autofocus lens then so can I! Just gotta build the skill 😉)

Enjoy the photos. Tag your friends and if anyone wants a high-res version of anything give me a shout.

10 years ago I started my roller derby journey. Took a break for a little while but now I'm back on the track and back behind the lens. Just finished redoing freshmeat and while I don't think my skating skills are quite where they were the first time I completed it they are getting there.

Went to Durham Region Roller Derby's Season Opener Double header last weekend. Didn't take a lot of photos and my camera battery died halfway though but got some shots and had lots fun. Been ages since I went out to anything derby-related. My skates miss the track (and I just miss nice pavement to skate on outside, come on spring). No idea if I'll get back into derby myself any time soon but would love to get back into the photo and video work at least. So I am blowing the dust off this page and posting what I shot. (Also, wth facebook, why are pages so difficult to navigate now?)

Ok, so I haven't been out to derby stuff lately. School is consuming my life right now, but I've got plans for this summer to get back on the derby scene and also to make some progress a few personal derby photo/video series that I have in the works. So hopefully this page will pick up in interest in the coming months. :)

In the meantime. I've made some minor updates and changes, and I discovered that the default settings were that only I could tag photos. Now that made no sense cause I have no idea who most of the people in these photos are! :P So that is fixed now. If you are in a photo I've taken you should now be able to tag yourself and your friends. So tag away. :)

Now I just need to get out and shoot more so that there are some RECENT photos to tag.

Well derby has been a backseat to school for a while, but last weekend I was able to make derby and school work together. My final project for this semester's photography course:

My final project for my video capture class this past semester was a short documentary. Naturally I roped my derby wife into lending me a hand ;) I hope to do more videos like this down the road. There are some other girls whose stories I'd like to help share.

It has taken me far too long to get these online. Sorry girls! Every time I went to do them something school-related got in the way, but now that school is done for the summer I'm working away at all the photos I need to edit. :)
