History repeating itself is common for me yet it always surprises me when a client I shot ages ago, (10 years to be exact) hunts me down seeking new photos! Having said that, to this day, my photos of her STILL land her modeling contracts, how could I say no! From this image, you can see that both Patricia and I have BOTH still got it!

Does this person look familiar? She should because this is the third time I’ve done business portraits for her! A successful life coach here in Victoria and the USA since 2007, Tracey and I go way back to when I first moved to Victoria and brought my photographic game to the island! We have been through the brightest sun, ocean winds giving her a Mohawk and rain gusts off Macaulay Point together over the years! Every single time, we win! thank you for entrusting me yet again, in making magic along Victoria’s coastline! Watch for her new ad in an upcoming edition of .

Prior to Christmas I was asked if I'd like to be part of a project involving a compilation of artists of mixed talents to make a calendar for a friend of mine. The idea was that this calendar would showcase 12 glorious months of one chameleon of a man ranging from his normal everyday self in his typical casual attire, to a swanked up facade of the same man. Everyone who participated in this hilarious gem did a fantastic job and I am happy to say that I have the calendar hanging in my kitchen. These were the photos that I offered for consideration.

West Coast fall weather opened its arms after a month of giving us the cold shoulder, and I was able to get some photos of Lacey, her girls and her man out at Island View Beach this weekend. The last time I photographed Lacey's family, the girls were both so teeny! So great to have all three back for another trip through the lens!

We've been waiting patiently for the weather to cooperate wih us for just over a month now, but today definitely didn't disappoint! Just a little tidbit from our shoot this afternoon at Island View Beach
