 | Awaken Workshop |  |
Hello Photographers and Friends
This blog is a collection of musings of our photography, work, personal life but also some “shop talk”
Our good friends Dave and Charlotte are putting up an amazing workshop for photog students, photography startups as well as seasoned pros alike. Everyone will take away something valuable that can be implemented in their business model, network, have fun and better your business overall. Rock solid line up of photographers and cinematographers will cover topics such as Branding, Marketing, Social Media, Client Experience and much more. Do checkout their site at www.awakenworkshops.com and sign up **HERE** of course mentioning us in the “who referred you tab” 
There is a limited seating so don’t delay. Attending workshops, seminars and getting together with colleagues furthers you as an artist, your business and the industry as a whole. We really feel that its important to learn from each other, share, and give back to the community. Cheers and enjoy the balmy weather we are having

| Missing Summer | |
Going through all the external hard drives, amalgamating, deleting, sorting and organizing is a task for winter. Getting ready for the Wedding season can be a daunting task. Don’t you find that getting ready for any task or job usually takes so much longer that the task itself? Strange but true. No wonder the saying goes, preparation is half the battle. I think its more like 75 or 80%. Really, the same applies to shooting. As most photogs can attest to it, we shoot 20% and do everything else 80%. After all its a business and working for yourself means that you wear all the hats. Not complaining just saying We love what we do, and although there are the odd tasks that we all dread…. we would never have it other way. But I digress, I’ve been cleaning up and organizing our images… I think we have over 100 000 images and soo many haven’t seen the day of light. So occasionally we will post a fun shot, fine art, personal or just something weird So here is one from the summer. As we had a snow storm yesterday its nice to reminisce of the balmy weather and good times we can have in summer. Cheers and keep warm. Mark

| Casey+Ryan-Engagement in Milton | |
We had a fun winter engagement session with Casey and Ryan not long ago. Although it was a little chilly, they both were fun and into anything we suggested. After a few minutes of a little direction and getting used to the cameras, the inhibitions were left behind and fun ensued We met downtown Milton by the Mill Pond which was frozen over to start off. The locations were so easy to pick between historic buildings, tracks, park and even a truck wash station for a little vintage fun. You guys were totally awesome and we are glad to hear that even Ryan felt like it was a breeze…being all nervous before hand Enjoy few of our faves and congratulations again! Anna+Mark

| Olympic Torch in Port Credit, Clarkson and Oakville | |
We are so excited for the Olympics to take place in February. Two years ago I got a silver button to support Vancouver 2010 and wore it ever since. Can’t believe its finally here. I had a chance to catch the Torch Relay here in Port Credit and Clarkson. What a cool experience. The number of people that showed up in support of the relay was overwhelming. The energy just oozed out of people and everyone was in the greatest mood, despite the chill. Here is few frames from the participants, flame and peoples jubilations.
