Chinook Outriders Motorcycle Club Photoshoot Redux

Last weekend I got together with the Ladies of the Chinook Outriders Motorcycle Club (the Calgary chapter of the Women in the Wind) for another photoshoot. Long time readers may remember that I created individual and group portraits for the same club last summer. We got some great results last year and they wanted to do it all over again this year. It has been a tough thing to schedule, but we finally managed to pull it off this past weekend. Last year the shoot was done at Fish Creek Park and the images all had trees with bright green leaves in the background. The images looked great but we wanted to do something a little different this year. We chose an industrial location and used the loading dock and red brick walls of the old Molson Brewery in Inglewood (more recently the West Key Storage building) as a backdrop. I really wanted to give them something striking and different and the industrial location helped with that. You will see from the following example images that I processed many of the images to really play up the grungy location that we used. Thanks again to all the members of the club that came out. It was great to meet all the new people who weren't at the portrait session last year, and very flattering that so many come back for a second year.

REN Stampede Breakfast

This is an animated slideshow of photos and video created while doing some photography coverage of a Stampede Breakfast that I attended yesterday. The event was hosted by the Referral Exchange Network (REN**) in Calgary and was both a social event for the club members and a visitors day to try to introduce some new prospective members to the club. It was a really great event with lots of good food and beverages, some great musical entertainment, and plenty of laughs and conversations! Thanks to PM Gigs, Jones and Salt Insurance, and Apex Financial Consulting for sponsoring the event, and to the Groove Demonz for providing the tunes! **REN is a single profession business referral club that meets at lunch every Tuesday at the Carriage House Inn. The club is actively growing and always on the lookout for new members that have positive energy, are highly professional, and that are actively trying to grow their business. Please let me know if you're interested in learning more about the club?
