It was hard to initially think of myself as an artist. I grew up immersing myself in so many different sports and dedicating over 10 years to becoming a teacher and qualified coach - taking 10+ different National Governing body qualifications, a Bachelor of Science Degree in Sport and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education. Sport continues to govern so much of my life and where I find true happiness.

I have been practicing photography for around twelve years, and I wanted to redirect my ‘visual culture’ to the context I am in, but it is not always easy to change focus.

Building a Mystery

Posted:

Jul 15, 2020

Last year I bought my first real camera; a lightly-used digital SLR. For years I had heard terms like ‘exposure’ and the ever-mysterious ‘f-stop,’ but they remained abstract concepts—the secret language used by photographers to work their magic.

Born to Adventure
borntoadventure.com

Mini Adventures. Mighty Adventures. They all deserve to be remembered!

Born to Adventure is a business inspired by the idea that beautiful memories need more than a smartphone selfie, or an out of focus shot snapped by your six-year-old, your husband or a well-meaning stranger! We all want creative and spontaneous photos without getting caught up trying to get the perfect image.

Her journey of becoming a filmmaker really began in Fernie. She moved to this mountain town after a season raft guiding on the Ottawa River. Her boyfriend at the time was a photographer and had set up a contract at the ski hill shooting video and taking photos in exchange for ski passes. He handed her a camera… and so began her career as a photographer.

Creative Photography For Beginners

Still Shooting In Auto Mode? This class is based on everything I wish I had learned in 2003 when I got my first digital camera. It’s not a comprehensive class, it’s all about learning a few simple, yet effective features on your camera & some key concepts to get you off Auto Mode right away.

This is definitely not your typical photography class!
Beginners do not need to learn everything at first, just the skills that will apply to 90% of your photos. From here, experience and excitement will take you to the next level.
