Coast Hotels Photo Shoot

In a growing list of unique places that I've worked this year, over the weekend I was hired by Coast Hotels to photograph some of their newly upgraded rooms here in Medicine Hat. While location specific photography is certainly nothing new to me, this was the first time that I'd done a complete set for a hotel. 

The shoot was pretty straightforward, but I really enjoyed the experience. I'm also really proud of how the shots came together. It's a great looking hotel with several really unique room styles too. Here are a few of my shots.

Ewart-Duggan House Garden

A lot can change in the course of a year. I photographed the Ewart-Duggan House last spring in 2012 before the new landscaping and fence were completed. I decided to return to photograph the location again in the summer heat, and now it's obvious just how much this historic home has been improved upon. The fence and garden are meant to reflect the original look of the property, and in combination with the neighbouring Esplanade, the house now feels integrated with the surroundings and further echoes the historic prominence of this downtown Medicine Hat street.
