Country Cruise Night Car Show - Kakabeka Falls

Patrick Chondon July 12, 2018

It was one of those evenings that everything the stars all aligned and everything was perfect. After Anne and I finished doing a photography assignment in Kakabeka Falls she noticed there were a bunch of vintage cars across the road. There was a car show! First we decided to actually go check out the Falls and walk around a bit. Anne let me capture some video of her in and around the Falls which I have been wanting to do for SO long, but we have just been so busy. I simply cannot wait to edit and show off that video.

Fort William Collegiate Institute

Over the past few months I have been teaching myself video and exploring different areas with a completely different point of view, seeing as how it's different then photography. One of the areas in town I always wanted to make a short film about was FWCI. Even though it's getting pretty run down these days I still think it has so much character and potential to be beautiful again. You can view the resulting video below, but while I was there I also managed to take some photos as well.

Weekend Fun

This weekend was very busy but it was also packed with a lot of fun. We ended up playing some cards, some dice and Anne cooked some amazing meals. We even had Willow over for the weekend, and as you can tell from the cover image, she was looking for some love (and food). Jasmine and Emma slept over, as did Anne's mom, Cathy. I would have preferred to actually win's some game of dice against her, but she was ruthless.

Hammarskjold High School Vintage Car Show

This is just a quick post that I wanted to share. Hammarskjold High School decided to host a small vintage car show today so I decided to stop by with my camera and see what kind of cars showed up. In all, there were about 10 cars along with some off-road jeeps. I'm a sucker for vintage cars so any chance I get to attend one of these shows I jump at the opportunity.

It was a vintage kind of day.

This past weekend I joined the ladies for a bit of a vintage shopping excursion. I figured it was the perfect opportunity to bring along the trust camera, of course, and see what gems I could find. We started the morning at the Hoito for breakfast to ensure we would have a lot of energy for all the walking around we'd be doing that day. I used my Fuji X-T1 and 24mm 1.4 combo for all the photos below.

4th Annual Fat Guys Auto Show 2015

Patrick Chondon July 25, 2015

On my way to a wedding I was photographing today I quickly stopped at the Annual Auto Show at Fat Guys. I went last year and really enjoyed myself so I wanted to at least make an appearance this year to take a few photos. I literally only had about 10 minutes so I walked around quickly and just snapped a few things that caught my eye. I could have easily spent a couple hours there but I simply didn't have the time this year.

All photos were taken with the Fuji X-T1 paired with the 16mm 1.4.
