Hey everyone. As you’re probably aware, I strive to continue my education in photography at every opportunity. So, when I heard that Ben Chrisman was coming to do a 3 day workshop here in Edmonton, I was more than just a little stoked about attending.

Here is the blog post from my fellow Edmonton wedding photographers Michael and Haley Shandro:

We are lucky enough to be hosting Ben Chrisman from San Francisco in an intimate workshop at our studio from May 19th to 21st, 2009. Ben was ranked one of the top ten Wedding Photographers in the world by American Photo Magazine (click here to see the article).

Ben will be covering a number of topics including his approach to business and marketing. We also will be doing a live shoot. This is a great chance to enhance your business and photography and take it to the next level.

The workshop is limited to 15 participants and there are still a few spaces left. Contact us to register or for more information.

If you’re a photographer and would like to register for this workshop, you should click here to email Michael and Haley Shandro.

Just wanted to let all my friends, fans and clients know that the new CU Photography site and blog are live.

Have a fabulous weekend everyone.
Much love,
C.

Just short note today to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful new year in 2009. There are some big changes coming for 2009, and most notably are a totally new website and blog that will debut on January 1st of the new year.

Expect regular updates on the new blog. Expect big pictures. And I mean BIG pictures, on both the blog and new website.

New Album offerings and retirement of some old ones are in the works as well. It’s going to be a great year, and I’m really excited about it. Talk to you all soon!

In Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
— Lt.-Col. John McCrae
