This is probably the most unflattering thing I’ve seen it a while but its REALLY funny. So my friend texted me with the definition of my name in the Urban Dictionary. Apparently this is what “Denley” is defined by, as by them!
Denley - A seat or chair on which it is impossible to get comfortable. I just can’t relax on this Denley.
So…what are your thoughts? Do you agree? 
Boy howdy! She is growing up quick. I remember when my niece was just born, it feels like yesterday, to be cliche. I was an uncle for the first time, it was so exciting! I can recall driving to the hospital, the smell was so distinct and…well, clean. My parents and my siblings walked into the room where my sister in-law was holding Sophia Michelle Thiessen. I was excited/nervous to see and hold Michelle for the first time. I remember Angie, my sister in-law, giving her to me, I, trying to be as delicate as humanly possible, trying not to move at all out of fear of dropping her! And then it happened. I looked down, holding her in my left arm as I use my right arm to uncover this bundle of joy from underneath the warm blanket. And there she was. I always heard people say how beautiful babies were when they are just born, and there I was, in shock, speechless. It took a moment but finally the word came to me…eww. I was 16 at the time.
Turns out babies are quite wrinkley when they are first born. That! I wasn’t expecting. She did manage to make me laugh on this wonderful night though. It turns out that everytime a camera flash went off she would jerk her whole body as if to say, what unnatural thing just happened? All this was before I knew how to take pictures and before my photographic journey began. Now? Well, now Michelle and her two twin younger brothers are a fantastic addition to the family and I might add they are not wrinkley at all!
I love taking pictures of my niece and nephews, especially with my trusty film Nikon FM2. The colours, the feel, and the results you can get out of this camera…spectacular. Here is Michelle, a few years back, no wrinkles and very, VERY cute.
Wow, what a week. I sure have been busy this week preparing for all sorts of shooting. This last Saturday and Sunday, I had a wicked time with an old friend I used to work with David Kujawa, from Kujawa Studios. Pretty much the whole time him and I were laughing, high fiving, and just plain having fun! David called me up about a month ago with an idea he had in mind. David wanted to work on his portfolio and just play around with his camera. He called me to help out with lighting, ideas, and I think just to make him laugh. I’m not sure why, but whenever David and I get together we end up on the floor laughing, and the last two days were no exception, especially when I had him choking on his chicken caeser pita!
The concept was “action”. Here are some shots of the behind the scenes shots. I can’t wait to see the video you are putting together David, its gonna rock!
I’ll have some more shots of the actual shoot later on…stay tuned!
Later,
Denley
The interweb has returned! Stay tuned for pictures from this coming up Saturday!
Just a quick update for everyone. Currently my internet is down in and around my area so I will be communicating from secret location (probably somewhere in the cayman Islands :P). I am still checking emails, but I cannot check them as often as I wish. My phone still works so no worries there!
Also, this weekend I am heading out to a shoot with a good photographer friend of mine, David Kujawa, from Kujawa Studios for some dance/motion photo shoot. It is a really cool concept and hopefully I can have some images up very soon!
Stay tuned for more updates!
I was just at the Leg (The Legislature) yesterday taking some photo students out for some abstract photography assignments. In between teaching and answering questions I was able to snap a few shots of the Leg. Here are some of my favourites!
Wednesday night was a huge success! I think about 20 or so photographer came by and we all chatted for quite sometime! I played a couple rounds of Rock Band and didn’t do too badly. Thanks to Trevor for hosting the event. I’d love to do it again! Check out Trevor Brucki’s blog for a video of the whole thing!
I just finished making a sweet, sweet Mud Cake. I’ll be heading on over to Trevor Brucki’s place for a little get together with him and some other awesome wedding photographers in the city later on tonight. They will be testing out my Mud Cake, and I’m sure it’ll be great! I’ll have an update from the shin dig later this week.
