A day in Kamakura, Japan 🇯🇵 Looking forward to sharing recent projects, starting with a trip to Japan that crystallized my passion for cinematography. Kamakura, just an hour from Tokyo, was a highlight. Its charming beaches and laid-back lifestyle made it the perfect spot for a relaxing summer day. Definitely a must-visit if you’re traveling to Japan! - #japan #japantravel #kamakura #japansummer #japantrain #kamakuratrail #ottawavideographer #explore #japantourism

“The creative process is a process of surrender, not control.” ― Julia Cameron, The Artist’s Way ✨ A fellow creative and I attended the Milestones Creative event hosted by Pieces Of Us, and we were in awe of all the talent. The evening was an intimate creative experience that spotlighted artists from all walks of life, offering them a platform to share their talent and creative journey. The dedication and hard work of the Pieces Of Us team in fostering an exciting and welcoming space for the creative community truly shone through in the vibrant, positive energy of the event.

Excited to share the still images from a recent creative shoot featuring the stunning handcrafted accent pieces by indigenous family-owned Andres Jewelry. Captivated by their unique design, I aimed to capture the fluidity of movement in everyday settings. Set against the backdrop of @skyestudioinc Day Break Room, the juxtaposition of asymmetrical and traditional designs beautifully complements the studio’s bright, aesthetic, and serene space. It’s a perfect fusion of two worlds in design. Support this incredible family-owned company by discovering their craftsmanship at St. Laurent Mall, right next to the Clairs store. For more info check out their page @andesarts.ca A special thank you to the beautiful Siman for gracing this shoot with her elegance, enhancing the visual concept. - #ottawa #ottawaphotographer #ottawaphotography #lifestylephotography #portraitphotography #jewelrydesign #designphotography #ottawalife #ottawacreatives #photography #studiophotography #lifestyle #canonphotography #canoncanada #instagramphotos #goldjewellery #goldaccessories

Elysian (Greek) Definition - Beautiful or creative; divinely inspired; peaceful. This word perfectly encapsulates the creative inspiration derived from a beautifully designed space that emits calm , beauty, and serenity. And that would be the word to describe the Day Break room from @skyestudioinc . Sessions flow so well when people feel comfortable and enjoy their spatial environment. I look forward to sharing the results of this recent inspired session✨ Location- @skyestudioinc . . . #ottawaphotographer #ottawaphotography #ottawalife #ottawadesign #ottawaphoto #ottawaphotographer #photographer #canonphotography #canon _photos #canoncanada
