Urban Exposure Exhibit - Poverty in Our Community

For those of you in Calgary... Please mark your calendars....

Urban Exposure Exhibit - Poverty in Our Community

Thursday, 03 June 2010  Time: 18:00 - 21:30
Location: Wallace Gallery, 500 5 Ave S.W.

Please accept my invitation to an exciting Calgary photography exhibition. I have been involved with the United Way of Calgary and Area for several months now, volunteering on a photo project aimed at raising awareness around poverty in the city.  Urban Exposure has rented the Wallace Gallery on Thursday June 3, 2010, where my photographs from the project will be on display.

The photos I have taken for the project are property of the United Way, so I will be unable to post them here, or anywhere else. The only way to see them is at the event!

Before Spring had sprung

Moving Forward; Catching Up

Hello all.

Read on - an open letter if you will. 'How are things?' 'What's new?' and 'What have you been snapping and writing about lately?'

These are the questions I'm always greeted with in Calgary (and from international outposts via social media), perhaps a testament to my inability to keep up with the hundreds of people I know, my macabre/secretive nature (created by in-interest in talking about myself and never really having much good to say in 'small talk' situations), or my lack of blogging - probably some sort of combination of that and more.

Anyways, lots has been happening.

Out with the old...

Warehouse District, Calgary. DCB '10

I've slowly being putting together a photo essay on the amazing contrasts of old/new, crumbling/shiny, efficient/ridiculous of Calgary's infrastructure. Stay tuned for more, and share you photos of the town please.

As many may know, I have covered Plan It Calgary (city's long-term growth and infrastructure blueprint) for a few years through the journalism faculty paper.
