The Light at the End of the Tunnel
Trillium Health Partners had the honour of administering Peel Region’s first COVID-19 vaccine, and I was lucky enough to capture the event.
While the vaccine rollout is worth celebrating it is important to not celebrate a victory quite yet. Even with multiple companies pumping out vaccines it’s going to take time to administer the vaccine to those who are willing to take it.
Be sure to remain vigilant. Continue to mask up, social distance and practice frequent hand hygiene.
The staff at the Trillium Health Partner vaccination clinic are working hard to get all the ICU staff and long term care home workers vaccinated. Below are some images from the vaccination clinic.
TSN Woodbine Mile Feature - Meet Track Photographer Michael Burns Jr.
Meet Woodbine's legendary track photographer, Michael Burns Jr.
While at Woodbine Entertainment I’ve often found myself working in close quarters with Michael Burns, but I haven’t ever really had the chance to chat with him for any extended period of time. While shooting this feature I basically shadowed Burns for a couple days, so naturally we had a lot of time to talk. It was a great opportunity for me as a photographer to see how he works and pick his brain. I had a great time following him around and getting some insight into his daily workflow. Not only is he an amazing photographer but he is also a stand-up-guy.
I was blessed with some amazing light on a few of these shoot days which was really great, especially when you’re telling the story of a photographer. Below are a few screen grabs of the incredible light we were blessed with.
This feature was shot for the TSN Woodbine Mile Show which aired on September 14, 2019.
SKETCH OF THE DAY 03.07.19 - PokéFusion
I’ve recently been messing around with my girl’s new iPad. There is a really fun illustration app on there called ProCreate. I was a big fan of this app the moment I started using it. I’ve always enjoyed drawing, but never really did anything more than notebook doodles. With ProCreate I’ve been able to breathe life into this sketches. My desire to draw has been rekindled! I’ve been trying to get a little drawing time in everyday.
Lately I’ve been seeing this old PokéFusion website trending again on twitter. I thought it might be fun to illustrate my PokéFusion dream team. So here are my top six PokéFusion Pokémon. I hope you enjoy them. I had a lot of fun making them. Click to see these PokéFusions in all their glory.
I’m not too sure if I should be mixing these illustrations into my photo/video website, but hey, it’s my website so I’ll do what I want! Expect to see more ProCreate illustrations in the future. I plan on creating a website logo and I’ll be sharing my first commissioned piece very soon.
POTD 07.09.18
Caught the sun going down from the Leaside Bridge in Toronto, Ontario. When I arrived and set up my tripod the sky was grey and as far as nice sunset shots, this picture was looking bleak, but in the last 10 minutes before the sun disappeared behind the horizon the sky opened up into a beautiful array of pinks, purples and oranges. Mother nature put on another great show. Here is the image I captured.

Spotted this sweet ride in my neighborhood this afternoon. Had to stop and get the shot. Taken with my iPhone SE. You know what they say, the best camera is the one you've got on you.
