Got my first cover magazine today. Working for Entreprendre was challenging but fun. For their main story, they use 5 or 6 pictures, including the cover. That means you have to find and execute, in a short period of time, 5 or 6 fairly different pictures. As Frank O’Connor (Loyalist teacher) used to say: Creativity on demand!
Here is some pictures that I submitted:
Minister of Immigration and Cultural Communities Yolande James speaks with Gazette reporter Kevin Dougherty during a sit-down interview at her Quebec city office Tuesday May 22, 2007. James is the youngest minister in Jean Charest’s cabinet, and the province’s first black cabinet minister. She also carries the burden of being the only anglo in the pared-down cabinet.

Taekwon-do championship is over. Until I have the time to show you some picture, enjoy Chase Jarvis shooting some ninjas!
Pretty quiet here, eh? For the whole week, I’m working pretty much 12 hours per day as the official event photographer for the ITF World Championship of Taekwon-do here in Quebec City. I’ll have a lot of photo to show you.
The event is pretty cool, with a huge setup. It’s really beig! If you happen to live in the area, you should come have a look.
