After the Creative Live experience, I’ve definitely been thinking more about my brand and my business.
I decided I definitely needed to update my website with a few new head shots of myself for my new website (coming soon!)
I’m a big fan of twitter and social media in general, and another photographer, Michael Wachniak, who I have second shooted for before, tweeted that he needed some head shots done!
I immediately replied that I needed some too and if he would be up for a trade!… Luckily… He was!!
We met up yesterday for some lunch and a beer at Capones (great pizza and jazz restaurant) and then walked around Downtown Vancouver.
I highly recommend connecting with other photographers in your area if you don’t already have some head shots of yourself for your website, or need some new ones.
I provided Michael with 25 shots and sent him them as large JPEGs and smaller JPEGs that can be used for his website/portfolio.
It was great to meet up with you Michael, and thanks for the images you’ve been able to provide me with. You can check them out here!
I love them Michael. They are super cool and you captured some great moments. (I may need to pick your brain on how you processed them :) )
Here are a few of my favs from the day:
Michael Wachniak
Mike and his Canon 5D Mark II …
Near David Lam Park, Vancouver:

This is actually probably one of my fav images from the day:
Usually I try to make my subject laugh, but Mike is hilarious and this image below is Mike making himself laugh.. you crack me up!
Lookin’ forward to seeing you again soon!
Cheers,
