Today was a super nice day in Vancouver, so Deb and I decided to go out and do a little shooting. We went out to Downtown New Westminster and shot around the Law Courts and the Wesminster Quay. Here are a couple shots that I liked. Enjoy them, for they are tasty.

The big doors of the Courts made for an awesome backdrop. Supa Dupa!

We really liked the little path of square platform thingies, but there was no water in the fountain… We’ll have to come back in the summer when they have water flowing.

I’m not sure if anyone’s noticed just yet… But I’m quite a fan of Black and White. This is one of my favourite photos of Deb so far.

Brick walls are fun…

This is another shot of Deb that I enjoy. Of course, I enjoy EVERY shot of her……..

We walked to the Quay and I thought the  the Fraser River Discovery Centre building had some nice texture to it, so I shot it…  I kinda like how it turned out.

The wind today was a bit of a jerk (THANKS, WIND!!!!!) so Deb’s hair was gettin’ all up in her face. Oh well, what can you do?

This next shot is clearly not of Deb… it’s the back of the stop light at a train crossing. Ya… just puttin’ it out there. :>

At the end of the day, we were on a street that had a few antique stores. We went into a couple and in one of them we found 3 really awesome pieces that we’re thinking we’re going to get. This desk is built with solid teak (which is usually pretty pricey) and I love it. The only thing we don’t like are the pulls on the drawers and the colour of the wood. I’m pretty sure I can take the pulls off and replace them with something modern, and I’ll refinish the wood in a much darker stain. Anyways, last photo :>

We’ve been toying with the idea of making this blog the main homepage of The Other Angle Photography, and tonight we’ve made it official. From now on, when you go to www.theotherangle.ca you will be redirected here. It just made sense not to be updating 2 sites with the same content. You’ll also be seeing the most recent content all the time.

As you may notice, we now have a gallery of images easily accessible from the menu above. There is also pricing information and a way to get in touch with us if you’d like a consultation.

Also, we have another wedding to post here, which will be real soon

Oh ya… Happy Valentine’s kiddies

Back when I got married, 5 and a half years ago, film was still king of the photography world. All our photos were done with film. I still have the rather large proof sheets. Back then, digital photography was still quite young. In fact, to this day compared to film, digital is still young. Since then, however, a LOT has changed. Megapixel count has gone really high, image sensors have become a lot more sensitive and accurate, and the cameras are getting fancier and fancier.

A few months ago, Channel 5 (UK I believe) ran a segment comparing today’s digital camera technology to film cameras on their show “The Gadget Show”. It’s pretty cool what they did, actually.

As you can see, no longer is film wearing the crown.
