Rivalry Week: Photographing a Local Tradition

Rivalry Week: Photographing a Local Tradition

What It got its start in 1968 as a one-day football game established by Mayor Des Newman, with the Mayor’s Cup trophy awarded to the winner. When football was ended at Anderson CVI in 1984 the event stopped until it was revived in 2009.

Since 2009 Rivalry Week between Henry Street HS and Anderson CVI has been running with both schools vying to win the coveted Mayor’s Cup. They play two hockey games (girls and boys), one basketball game and one volleyball game.

This year the results were as follows:

+ Henry Girls Hawkey – Win

+ Henry Boys Hawkey – Win

+ Anderson Boys Basketball – Win

+ Henry Girls Volleyball – Win

This completed the third year Henry has won the competition.

No matter the losses or wins the end of the Rivalry week is a reminder that we are stronger together. This event allows more people to attend volleyball games than we would ever see in a normal versus match in the school year. Congrats to all the organizers and students who attend each year.

The Visual Story of PR Professional: Kelsey Muir

The Visual Story of PR Professional: Kelsey Muir

During the summer months, with more outside portraits, it is always lovely to come home to some studio work. Kelsey has been working in the Public Relations field for 5 years. She wanted to add some strong portraits to her social media touch points (Facebook, Linked In, etc).

We worked in the studio to create this sleek look for Kelsey. The grey has just a touch of Navy from her outfit and add contrast to her hair and eyes. We used a medium grey paper to create the foundation before adding in some navy in post.

For this experience Kelsey booked a professional stylist and makeup artist. The effects speak for themselves and when you feel your best our job is always easier. 

 Kesley nailed this image first frame she was so relaxed in front of the camera. We created the other shots by working through a series poses and outfits to get the look and style that works for this Public Relations professional.

Under the Water

Under the Water

Water is a crazy place to try and take photos. As a photographer every fibre of your being tells you to keep your gear as far away from the wet stuff as you possibly can. In our professional water is death to my day to day gear.

Much like above the water – gear can give you an edge but the true magic is the artist using the gear. Under water requires a series of variables to create magical stories and portraits – clarity of the water, light, distance from subject – just to name a few.

Clear path ahead.

Under water photography gear ranges from inexpensive $100 kid proof, water proof point up to skies the limit budgets for cases for professional bodies and lenses. We own a couple $100 versions, a GO PRO Hero 5 and of course my professional gear (but no cases – so they live above on the land).

Much like above the water – gear can give you an edge but the true magic is the artist using the gear. Under water requires a series of variables to create magical stories and portraits – clarity of the water, light, distance from subject – just to name a few.

Pool reality is messy, churning, bubbly water.

So as the summer progresses we will continue to play above and below the water. We have a busy fall coming with the Downtown Whitby Beerfest and much more.

A headshot session is an opportunity to create a portrait that connect clients, colleagues and more with the subject. Matthew is an “accomplished municipal leader who possesses the ability to envision and implement strategic changes to service delivery and deliver mission-critical results.” His portrait needed to align with his career.

For Matthew’s portrait we used a familiar location and paired it with key wardrobe choices to create a strong, professional and approachable look.

LOcation – Brock St Espresso, Whitby
The soft light of the windows at Brock St Espresso are amazing for strong natural light, headshots with catch lights in the eyes.

For Matthew’s portrait we used a familiar location and paired it with key wardrobe choices to create a strong, professional and approachable look. Using both a suit and a more casual jacket/vest combination to create variety in his options (our The Professional Experience sessions give you three headshot images).

We love it when the client shows up in Trinity Design purple accessories.
