The journal

Answers to the questions people ask us before they book. Written for Calgary, by someone who has been photographing here and in Nigeria since 2008.

What to wear for family photos in Calgary

Colours that work against Alberta light, what to do about coats, and the one rule that saves every group photo.

Twelve spots we come back to, what each one is good for, and the time of day that makes them work.

The running order, the timings that slip, and the questions that tell you whether a photographer has actually worked one.

Platforms, time zones, venue internet and the audio mistake that loses your audience in the first two minutes.

Real ranges, what is behind the number, and the three places couples regret saving money.

Reading is useful. A conversation about your actual date is more useful.
