“What Do You Shoot?”

I often find that people are confused about photography as a profession (and become even more confused when we say that we don’t do weddings!).

The system of photography types and disciplines is nebulous, and is often a mystery to the photographers themselves. In part, it comes from not wanting to limit and label ourselves. It’s like, to get rid of a high school nickname you had to leave for college. Once you call yourself a product guy, you may have to leave the area to rebrand yourself as a portrait guy.

No doubt I missed a few types, but here’s an approximate pyramid of how it works:

Here at AR Studio we do people, product, and architectural photography.
For advertising, corporate and editorial uses.
Commercial photography all the way.

Beautiful views while hiking through the woods. This was on the way up to the most visited castle in the world, Neuschwanstein (not shown).

George Street Diner

I’m not a fan of diner fare, but this place has so much character, it’s worth a visit. And they serve fresh lemonade – just the thing for this +45C weather.

Photo Sale to Benefit Japan

Just licensed this photo. All proceeds went to the Canadian Red Cross for the Japanese disaster relief.

Every dollar given to an organization like the Red Cross or Direct Relief International provides up to $30 of (wholesale) medical material aid. We can all make a difference, no amount is too small.

Our utmost respect and best wishes to the people of Japan.

Happy International Women’s Day!

Winter in Ontario

Helen — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 16:25:46 +0000

A week ago we went to the Hardwood Hills known for their beautiful woods and lots of great skiing trails. Just an hour North of Toronto but an entirely different world. On a sunny day, -25C/-15F isn’t as bad as it sounds.
