Justine Gustafson Beaded Dress

I got the chance to once again photograph Justine Gustafson’s amazing beaded dress in my studio this afternoon. She did some small adjustments to it and wanted it photographed again to potentially sell.

We did all the filming and photography in her hometown of Ojibways of the Pic River First Nation. It was an amazing experience and one that I will never forget. I really appreciate Ocean letting me spend a day with her and her family, as well as Manitobah for giving me a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Mary Creations - Birch Bark Baby Bag

Mary from Mary Creations once again asked me to photograph another original piece of hers. This time it was a birch bark baby bag that should will be giving away as a gift. It’s hard to really appreciate the detail and craftsmanship without seeing it up close and in person.

Fawn Meshake - Tikinagon Inspired Backpacks

It’s always amazing meeting local artists and photographing their work. Case in point, Fawn Meshake asked me to photograph her Tikinagon inspired backpacks which should would be selling at an upcoming fashion show in the US. The skill and attention to details was simply superb.

2024 BNA Community Powwow - Grandview Road

One of my absolute favourite events of the year is the Bingwi Neyaashi Anishinaabek Powwow on Grandview Road. It’s an all day event with vendors, amazing dancers and it’s just an all around good time.

One of my absolute favourite events of the year is the Bingwi Neyaashi Anishinaabek Powwow on Grandview Road. It’s an all day event with vendors, amazing dancers and it’s just an all around good time. This year was no exception either. The weather held up right up until the end, only raining for about 15 minutes. I actually found it refreshing. I’m already looking forward to the next one!
