I drove by this today on my way to something non photography related.

Morale of the story:  Always carry your camera with you!

Cheers,

Ian

Photography can be a fickle thing at times:  some projects involve countless hours of planning, execution, blood and sweat, while others seem to materialize out of nowhere and come together quickly. This new series, “The Wall”, definitely belongs to the latter group. I love some of these images and it was a lot of fun making them. The full series can be viewed in a new blog post on my website (link in profile). I hope you like it! . . . . . #fujifilm #myfujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #fujifilmx_us #fujifilmxseries #fujifeed #fujilove #myfujilove #x100f #teamfujifilm #streetphotographer #streetdreamsmag #streetstyle #streetshot #streetphotography #streetphoto #everybodystreet #streetlife #streethunters #ig_street #life_is_street #bnw_society #bnw_captures #bnw_city #bnwmood #streetphotography_bw #bnw_life #bnw_globe #moodygrams #silhouette @fujifilm_northamerica @fujifilm_xseries @fujifilmx_us @fujifilmme @fujifilm_uk @fujifilmnordic @fujifilmaus When you get caught in a flash storm and don’t have a coat on, but your camera is weather resistant so you say screw it and keep shooting. Oh, and you have the new Fujifilm 50mm f/2 lens on your camera. I LOVE that lens! . . . . . #xphotographer #fuji #fujifilm #myfujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #repostmyfuji #fujifeed #fujilove #myfujilove #fujifilmxseries #fujixpro2 #xpro2 #teamfujifilm #streetphotography #streetphotographer #streetphoto #streetportrait #everybodystreet #streetdreamsmag #streetshot #streetstyle #streetlife #streethunters #streettogs #wethestreet #ig_street #moodygrams #lensculture #toronto #_53mm_ @fujifilm_northamerica @fujifilm_xseries @fujifilmx_us @fujifilmme @fujifilm_uk @fujifilmeu @fujifilmme @fujifilmnordic @fujifilmaus Bent forward and falling down. . . . . . #fujifilm #myfujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #fujifilmx_us #fujifilmxseries #fujifeed #fujilove #myfujilove #fujix100f #x100f #teamfujifilm #streetphotographer #streetdreamsmag #streetstyle #streetshot #streetphotography #streetphoto #everybodystreet #streetlife #streethunters #ig_street #life_is_street #bnw_society #bnw_captures #bnw_city #bnwmood #streetphotography_bw #bnw_life #bnw_globe #moodygrams @fujifilm_northamerica @fujifilm_xseries @fujifilmx_us @fujifilmme @fujifilm_uk @fujifilmnordic @fujifilmaus So far this month I have taught my third street photography workshop of the summer, photographed a wedding, worked on a full redesign of my wedding photography website and completed countless other small business related activities. Now I find myself thinking more and more about my return to Europe, specifically to Amsterdam and Paris. One of the realities of running a business is that your craft often gets dominated by the day to day tasks that are required to sustain your business. It is important that you remember to carve out some time for you art and for your own personal satisfaction, which is exactly what this next trip to Europe is all about for me. 👍 . . . . . #amsterdam #iamsterdam #amsterdamcity #canal #holland #netherlands #travel #travelphoto #travelphotography #travelphotographer #cityscape #nightscape #nightphotography #fuji #fujifilm #myfujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #repostmyfuji #fujifilmx_us #fujifilmme #x100f #fujifeed #fujilove #myfujilove #teamfujifilm #worldbestgram #greatshotz #hubs_united #photoarena #awesomepix @fujifilm_northamerica @fujifilm_xseries @fujifilmx_us @fujifilm_uk @fujifilmnordic @fujifilmaus @fujifilmme Another image from my upcoming series “The Wall”, shot during my last Toronto Street Photography Workshop. So, what is everyone doing this weekend? 🤔🤗 . . . . . #fujifilm #myfujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #fujifilmx_us #fujifilmxseries #fujifeed #fujilove #myfujilove #x100f #teamfujifilm #streetphotographer #streetdreamsmag #streetstyle #streetshot #streetphotography #streetphoto #everybodystreet #streetlife #streethunters #ig_street #life_is_street #bnw_society #bnw_captures #bnw_city #bnwmood #streetphotography_bw #bnw_life #bnw_globe #moodygrams #silhouette @fujifilm_northamerica @fujifilm_xseries @fujifilmx_us @fujifilmme @fujifilm_uk @fujifilmnordic @fujifilmaus Paris, the city of love, is often on my mind. So much so that I’ve just booked a fall trip to Amsterdam and Paris with a good photography friend to go back and visit these cities again… these cities that I love so much. I can’t wait to stand on the bridges, see the churches and other amazing buildings, visit with the people and shoot to my heart’s content. I may just do a bit of teaching while I am there too. 😊 . . . . . #paris #france #eiffeltower #xphotographer #fuji #fujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #fujifilmxseries #myfujifilm #repostmyfuji #fujifilmx_us #fujifilmfrance #fujifilmme #fujifeed #fujilove #myfujilove #teamfujifilm #travelphoto #travelphotography #travelphotographer #cityscape #nightscape #bluehour #hubs_united #ig_color #ig_paris #parislovers #moodygrams #worldbestgram #lensculture @fujifilm_northamerica @fujifilmx_us @fujifilmme @fujifeed @fujifilmnordic @fujifilmeu @fujifilm_uk @fujifilmaus @fujifilmfr @fujifilm_xseries @paris I'm definitely one of those photographers who always tries to have a camera with me when I'm out and about. I see photographs all around me, every day, and I love being able to capture them when I see them. Take this scene, for example: I was passing through this subway station that had amazing lighting. It looked great. I saw the lady in the background, and then out of the corner of my eye I saw the gentleman in the foreground passing by me. All of a sudden a photo that had layers, depth and great light came together in a few seconds. I love it when that happens and I love that my little Fuji cameras are small enough to always have with me. 👍 . . . . . #fujifilm #myfujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #fujifilmx_us #fujifilmxseries #fujifeed #fujilove #myfujilove #x100f #teamfujifilm #repostmyfuji #streetphotographer #streetdreamsmag #streetstyle #streetshot #streetphotography #streetphoto #everybodystreet #streetlife #streethunters #ig_street #life_is_street #bnw_society #bnw_captures #bnw_city #bnwmood #streetphotography_bw #bnw_life #bnw_globe #moodygrams @fujifilm_northamerica @fujifilm_xseries @fujifilmx_us @fujifilmme @fujifilm_uk @fujifilmnordic @fujifilmaus Recently my friends at Fujifilm Canada asked me to put together a collection of images for a small gallery showing.  It was an honour to be asked of course, but it also served as an opportunity to review my work… something that all artists should do from time to time. I have a new blog post up on my site (link in profile) that describes the process of preparing this gallery, as well as my thoughts on the importance of reflecting on your work with a critical eye. I hope you like it! . . . . . #fuji #fujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #fujifilmxseries #repostmyfuji #myfujifilm #fujifilmx_us #fujifilmme #fujifeed #fujilove #myfujilove #xphotographer #teamfujifilm #fujixpassion #streetphotography #streetphotographer #streetphoto #streetportrait #everybodystreet #streetdreamsmag #streetshot #streetstyle #streetlife #streethunters #streettogs #wethestreet #ig_street #life_is_street #lensculture #vancouverphotographer @fujifilm_northamerica @fujifilmx_us @fujifilmme @fujifilm_xseries @fujifilm_uk @fujifilmaus @fujifilmnordic A smoke in the rain at night, bad ass sneakers and the Adidas store.
