one of the great things about my job as a photographer is that i get to visit some of the greatest places! some of the places that i can thank my job for taking me to are: whistler, montreal, germany, italy, hong kong, philippines, portland, switzerland, calgary, saskatchewan, the okanagan to name a few.

this last weekend i was second shooting for erin gilmore up the sunshine coast at rockwater secret cove resort.

i had never been to the sunshine coast, and let me tell you..it won't be my last time! and to think i have a sweet great aunt who lives in gibsons! she did invite me out this summer, so i will DEFINITELY take the kiddies and lover!!

the lifestyle is so incredibly "CHILL". it's awesome. and the scenery absolutely breathtaking.

here are my photos from the roadtrip side of it...enjoy. ;)

ferry odds & ends..

only on the sunshine coasts do you find random chairs at bus stops. we asked a local gent about them, and he said "ya, we donate them to the bus stops so people have somewhere to sit. in fact my wife took one of our old chairs to one last week!" so cool!

first stop - the quaint little township of gibsons...where the old tv series "the beachcombers" was filmed..

we ate lunch at this great little greek place..our drinks were scrumptious and our food..so good. we were burpin' it for hours.. ;)

here and there in molly's lane..

eat your heart out easy-park vancouver

and onto sechelt..

lil' ms GI JANE..

speaking of GI JANE..she got two flat tires..yep, same side..weeeeeeeeeeird. luckily wonderful gent "jack" came to our rescue and drove us to tire shop and then back to rockwater friday night..

it suits her, no? :)

only in a small town..i told erin that i bet it went something like this, the next day: "ya we were hardcore last night, we painted the street..ha ha.. ya best night EVER." :)
