This gentleman was a client of mine in Victoria. We had such a great time walking around Victoria finding some really interesting corners to shoot in. He was a previous security guard and gave me really interesting insight into the people of the downtown area. The security deal was on the backburner while he pursued his acting career.
While walking to Chesterman Beach in Tofino, there is a little corner of the land where the surfers will look out at the beach and see what the surf is looking like. Of all the years that I have spent in Tofino, this happened to be the only time that I had ever gone to this little lookout.... and considering it was only ten feet off the main trail, it was a big deal for me.
This piece really backs up what Marc was laughing at me about. While all the tourists and locals are taking pictures of the beach and the surf.... I am down on all fours taking pictures of rocks and logs.... well, lets add into that shells too!
Our place in Victoria was along Dallas Road. It was a great pasttime to head down to the water for an evening stroll with the family. There is nothing better than spending quality time with the family while being blessed with the opportunity to be able to photograph the beauty that surrounds us..... the two greatest passions of mine in the world!!
Last year, my family took a trip back home and went for a boat ride with my Dad to pick up some kayakers. It was one of the most enjoyable days on the boat that I have experienced in so many years. On our way out of the harbour, we met one of the local trawlers who was bringing his catch back to the dock. The ocean and the boats are always going to be in my blood! I am a true west coast girl.... put me in front of a fish, and I will clean it, filet it, and cook it to perfection!
