Annie Leibovitz Capturing the Monarchy

January 20th, 2010 No comments

When I started doing photography, I quickly learned that knowing how to use a camera does not make you a good photographer. The technical part of it is actually just a fraction of the work involved. There is a lot more involved and one of the most important elements is how to interact with your subjects. This is forever going to be a learning curve for me. I feel like I got a lot better than when I first started but it is often difficult to guide your models to match your visions and make them feel comfortable at the same time.

December 4th, 2009 No comments

This is another video of the project “Cameras for Healing” that was featured on CBC. I’m really fascinated with this project. I think it’s really great that someone can bring his passion to a level where he is able to help people with it.

Cameras for Healing

November 27th, 2009 No comments

Last night I attended a seminar with Maurice Henri a local photographer. He talked little bit about a project he started called “Cameras for Healing“. The project aims to help victims of war in Africa by providing psychological therapy through the use of photography. It is a fact that art, weather it is photography, music, painting, etc can be very therapeutic for people who suffer from post traumatic stress.

Moose in Moncton

June 17th, 2009 No comments

mooseBy Patrick Arseneau – I was walking the dog last night around 7pm along the marsh between Riverview and Moncton (I live in Riverview). Just as Iwas about to head back home, I see in the far distance what seemed to be way too big to be a dog. It was too far to tell and it could’ve been a horse. I walked back home to grab my camera and ventured back on the trail.
