A Sudbury Ontario Commercial Photographer

Over the years of photographing the mining/industrial industry I have had numerous opportunities to meet some great people.  Sometimes our paths cross multiple times before I get to photograph them in their working environment which only makes the shoot that much more enjoyable.  I always try to ask A LOT of questions in regards to their job and what they do so I can come up with a concept for the shot. (this also depends on how the image will be used in the companies marketing material).   I enjoy learning about each profession and trade in the industry which in turn helps me with my future shoots.  I always appreciate the time they take to educate me about their job and what they do.

Last month I had the opportunity to visit Vale’s Port Colborne Nickel Refinery. Unfortunately I didn’t get to spend a lot of time photographing all the processes but I am looking forward to photographing the remainder sometime this year.

Here are a few more images from a recent maternity.  This is a very delicate time in a woman’s life and the key to capturing beautiful maternity images is trust.  Your client HAS to feel comfortable.  Not only in front of the camera, but in front of you as well.  Joce and I have made this a huge priority in our studio, to take the time to get to know our clients, figure out exactly what they want as far as final images and product, and learn how they react to being in front of the camera.  I love photographing this stage in a woman’s life.  It is so elegant, beautiful, and rewarding (when you see the expressions on their faces when you show them the images).  For you expecting mothers out there, don’t be afraid to call our studio and talk to Joce about our maternity sessions.  We have a huge variety of products that you might not have thought about that can be beautifully displayed in your home.  The second image below will be a 30 inch wall canvas in our studio. 🙂

“Hey, what are you lookin at?”

Well I went and visited the SPCA and Pet Save yesterday and we are now officially offering all Adoptions a James Hodgins Photography Signature Pet Portrait Session for FREE.  If your thinking of getting a pet, then why not save one?  Last year Pet Save did over 1000 adoptions. WOW!  If you do adopt from these two organizations you will get an exclusive offer from our Studio.

Sometime SOON we are giving away $5000 in free photography.  Yup, you read right.  $5000 (dollars).  How?  Well it will all be revealed soon and you have to check our blog of facebook to be the first to know.

Last, please vote for my image in my previous post.  Share the link, send to your friends and family and cast your vote.  It’s back to work today and boy are we busy, plus we have all our speaking gigs coming up like our NoBs Roadshow, Chicago Inferno and somewhere in there I have WPPI in Vegas, oh ya, and we have to run a studio too.  Play hard work hard right?  Damn it’s good to be back. 🙂

“Chopper”

Fiona here is what we like to call a “firecracker with fur”.  We stuffed her with so many doggy treats that by the end of the session she outright refused to eat anymore.

Tonight we finished Josee & Jason’s engagement session out at their property on Bear Lake.   It had an abundance of different locations and “props” that we could incorporate into the session.  Learning that Jason had the same sense of humor as I did it didn’t take us long to come up with some odd images.  After we finished the session I had to create these 2 images because it’s not everyday you find a plastic spring horse ride nearby.  Stay tuned for more images from their engagement session.

We look forward to photographing more sudbury engagement couples.

Well, we have had a busy few days with the kickoff of our High Key Studio Special.  We have had sooooo many great families take advantage of this promotion, and it has been a pleasure photographing them all.  keep checking back with this blog as we will posting more.

Note:  We photograph babies that are 3 months and older.
