Summer is always a busy time in the photography world and it always includes a wide variety of different genres to photograph.

This July I enjoyed photographing Canoa Farms' Mountain Trail/Ranch Trail Show. I don't often photograph equine events/horses in general, and when I do, it's usually at cattle brandings or round-ups. However I thoroughly enjoyed my time with these fine equine-enthusiasts!

The variety of animals, ages of people and riding disciplines was really neat to see! (At one point there were both western and english riders in the same class and on the course at the same time, something I had not seen before!)

For anyone planning to order images, you can view them here. Please email me to get your orders started by including the image number (file name), type of copy you're looking for (print vs digital) and the number of copies, if you're looking for printed products. (I sell glossy prints and canvas.)

"Family reunion, she's gonna be a good one
So lemme bend your ear, the clan's all here for the family reunion!" - Corb Lund

Summertime is always a busy time for photography clients, but when the Arduini family rang I knew I had to fit them into the summer roster of clients. Because a big bunch of Italians are probably everyone's favourite to photograph!

I must say, I was super impressed with the location (shout out to the Salmon Lake Resort), the decor and of course their warm hospitality! As these pictures show, the Arduini family is a tight-knit group who enjoy each other and their Italian heritage to a level that not every family can express! I was thoroughly impressed. 

Family reunions, milestone birthdays or other important events are some of my favourite to photograph as they're predominantly candid images with some posed pictures and they always yield some of the best expressions and emotions.

Thanks again to the Arduini family for having me out for your 2023 family reunion! 

Are you a farm or ranch business needing marketing images that tell your story of your operation for things such as websites, social media, flyers, e-news? B.C.P.hoto has you covered and here's a great example of one of our marketing image clients - Rafter P Ranch!

The Patry's are some of the Nicola Valley's fine ranching families that pride themselves on producing quality BC beef. They approached me back in the winter and explained that some amazing and crafty things were beginning to grow and emerge with their business ventures and they were in need of marketing images to use on their website and social feeds. I was game to jump on the bandwagon and work with them! The Nicola Valley is a small community so I always appreciate when friends and neighbours collaborate with me on their photography needs.

So if you're looking for some quality beef be sure to check out their website and social media accounts - both Facebook and Instagram! ◡̈
