First day of the "Best of the West Women's Volleyball Championship 2008" at the Mount Royall College state-of-the-art facility.

Well the tournament is over, in the last couple of days I photographed many volleyball games and it was fun. I got some great images and I'm sure girls will like them.

This evening I photographed some college volleyball, Mount Royal Cougars played against SAIT Trojans. As always games involving SAIT are very popular with photographers, because SAIT has a pretty nice journalistic program and many students come to the games to photograph some sports. I personally counted seventeen photographers at one point, it was pretty crazy.

It was a pretty busy weekend for me. Today I had an opportunity to photograph Gloria Vargas in my photo studio. She is an opera singer and she needed a headshot done. She is a very nice woman and it was a pleasure to meet with her and her family.
After the photo shoot I had to run and have a late evening meeting with a very nice couple in Calgary, whose wedding I will be photographing this summer.

This Friday and Saturday Tracy and I were very busy doing a 2008 Bowness Trojans Classic basketball tournament. This is the second year we have done this tournament. It was not the most profitable tournament but I think I ended up with some great shots and I'm sure the kids will love them. The fans at the Bowness high school are great, they are really into the games and were probably the loudest fans I have seen so far. This got me more excited about the games and made me want to take better photos :)
I put together a small slideshow with some photographs from this tournament in my slideshow section, you can take a look by clicking here. Please feel free to contact me if you didn't have a chance to purchase any photographs.

Sorry that I didn't post anything for a while. I photographed another hockey tournament this weekend and I was very busy. Now I'm not really doing anything interesting and just processing images from the tournament. With all my actions and nice processes in place, its still taking a very long time. On average I was taking close to 400 images a game so I ended up with a lot of images to process. I didn't finish it all yet but I thought I would post a couple of photos from the tournament.

This morning I woke up early and headed to the gym. No not to work out, to photograph somebody who does. I was hired for a photo shoot of a triathalete in Airdrie named Janet Sima for an AirdrieLIFE magazine.

This was a long night for me. I photographed a Foothills Composite High school basketball game in Okotoks. This was the second year this team hired me to take some action photographs of them and its always great to be there.

We finally finished processing all the photographs from a hockey tournament we did on December 28-30, 2007. We already sent out all the DVD's for the Novice teams (if you purchased photographs, you already got it or should be getting it any day now). We will send out Tyke teams in the next couple of days. The tournament turned out great! I love doing tournaments in Airdrie because arena is only 5 min away from my home and it makes a huge difference. All together I ended up with more than 55 gigabytes of photographs stored from this tournament, I think its time to get another hard drive.
