Spring Baby Photo Shoot

I had the pleasure of doing a spring photo shoot with my lovely granddaughter of 8 weeks old. I was a lot of fun to be up in the studio...I'm not done editing the photos yet but I will post a couple.

If you are interested in a Spring Baby Photo Shoot you can book it with me. 20 poses for $60 and all photos will be put on a CD..... Please check out my website for all my studio fees....

Rocking out at Stellar Music

Hi folks,
It seems like forever since I last blogged! About 2 weeks ago I filmed some awesome Jam Bands. These young kids are doing an amazing job and really showed off their chops.

There were 3 bands there that night and I thought I would share the links with you guys. The Bands were called: Reign, Green Room & John Wayne Originals..... Hope you enjoy them

Seeing dreams thru a different lenz!

Hi everyone,

It's been a breathtaking 16 days watching the Olympic Games! Hope you were able to catch some of the excitement. Congratulations go out to all our Canadian Athletes making us all proud. From our first Gold Medal won by Alexandre Bilodeau, and the heartwarming support given by Alexandre's brother  Frédéric. And all the medals we have accumilated over the 16 days.  There has been many touching moments for me that has made me shed a tear or two. I think the most emotional moment for me was the moment that a very strong  woman  named Joannie Rochette stepped on the ice and skated an absolutly " Gold Medal performance". The courage and strength that she had and love for her mother helped  her get through her programs. Joannie has touched the hearts of all Canadians and has made us all very proud.....As I said before it's not the medal colour Gold, Silver or Bronze you all have touched the hearts of all Canadians. This is one of many reasons why I am proud to be a Canadian!
 I also think there should be medals given out to all the Camera  & TV Crews who have done an outstanding
job bringing all these games to our living rooms all over Canada. Kudos go out to you all!
Looking forward to yet another Medal as we await the Hockey Game as team Canada takes on the USA.

Another reason why I post today is because I have uploaded a new video on Youtube. Brownale sing a parody to "Danny Boy" Oh Boy Danny". Here is the link so check it out and if you feel please rate it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE_okZXz-w0

Until next time

A glance at Daniel Craig

I had a hoot on family day, hanging out with my family! We went for a stroll down to the heart of town only to find they were shooting a movie starring no other then Daniel Craig. I got some great shots and thought I would share a couple with you.

Please read my blog often as I wil be updating often!


      

Saturday night was a blast!

Wow, is the word for Saturday night as Lisa & I headed to the Dome Banquet Hall in Oakville. If you have never been there it is an absolutely beautiful place and the food is fantastic!

I did some work for Joe Passion and  Kathy Thompson. It was a Barry Manilow & Bette Midler Tribute Show. It was a fantastic night and I had a lot of fun shooting some footage.

Oh what a night this Saturday will be.......

Saturday afternoon I head down to Oakville for a videography job. It's a black tie affair and I will be doing some filming for a Musician named Joe Passion. Joe is an
INTERNATIONAL FEATURED THEATER ENTERTAINER
PORTRAYING:JERRY LEE LEWIS – JOHN LENNON – BARRY MANILOW

Check out his website at http://www.joepassion.net/

I'm really looking forward to doing this gig, it should be a lot of fun........

Well it's official! I have been a proud grandpa for the last 3 days....My daughter gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. 7lbs 13 ozs.....Tues Jan 26, 2010 at 5pm... I'm very proud of my daughter and I know she will make a fantastic mommy....Here is a little video I took, and also a photo to show you just how beautiful she is...

After 24 years......

 My whole intent for using this blog was to post exciting upcoming projects that I'm currently working on. Well today I blog for a slightly different reason......My full time project meaning my job will cease to exsist in June 2010, 24 years with one company. It's tough economics all around but when you have the carpet pulled out from you it's a little hard to catch your breath. I have worked in a base board heating company sice I was 19 years old and now forced to find new employment. Now on the upside of all this they have given us 6 months notice, which is far more notice then a lot of companys. Also it  is a ideal opportunity for me to pursue my part time job and make it a full time gig. That would be my photography & videography which I must admit makes me much more happier then starting my day at 5:00 am!

So here I throw out my "Are you or anyone else you know in need of a photography or videographer?" I cover anything from Studio Portraits and family shoots, Band Promotion photography/videography to weddings....So whatever your photo needs "I'm just a click away"! All my contact info can be found on my website http://www.thruthelenzstudios.com/

Busy, Busy, Busy

Busy is the word these days when it comes to jobs after my job.....Currently I'm working on a project with a duo called Brown Ale. Please keep an eye on my blog to see when this project will be released...

If you or anyone else would like to schedule a photo or video session please don't hesitate to contact me....

Remember Your Just A Click Away!
