Imaging journal

While studying for my MA, I really realized that having a place to journal about my work was very important. It helps me reflect on my past work and to be honest not to forget about what I did.

This is where I write about all things to do with projects I am working on. So mostly photography (stills), motion and motion graphics.

Aidan Street Portraits - #sayhelloottawa

January 14, 2019

Walking by @aidan.jones and his friends talking on the corner and something about him caught my eye. Not sure if it was his awesome jacket or his board but after he was done talking I asked if I could take his portrait.

This image was shot on the side of the Medical Arts building at 180 Metcalfe St., built in 1928 the architect W.E. Noffke also designed the Champagne Bath and the Central Post Office buildings here in town. Love the Art Deco look of the building, Ottawa architecture like its citizens are always full of surprises!!

I love the few fleeting minutes spent together when photographing these Street Portraits, connecting through photography at 1/200 of a second. I hope you will enjoy these images too and get inspired to say hello to someone you don’t know.
