This year, I’ll admit, with all the late snow we’ve gotten, I’m kind of fed up with winter! However, when you live in Alberta, you’ve gotta buck up and take what comes! Snow in June?! Bring it on! (I can just see all those June brides cringing!)

One good thing about the snow dump is we planned a ski trip to Jasper in early March, and the snow conditions were unexpectedly good for so late in the season. We decided one day on a whim to drive out to the Columbia ice fields after we were done skiing. We got there, and found out the interpretive center was closed, but walked around a little bit, and took a couple of photos (these are with my point and shoot camera!)

I haven’t been through there in years. It’s very sad to think that even in pictures from ten years ago, the glacier was much closer to the road. My family is Icelandic, so I think I’m a natural glacier lover – I think they are just amazing.

Anyhow, the point I’m trying to make is to enjoy the things that are pretty about this time of year, and try not to let the slush and muddy puddles get you down!

I’m keeping busy with commercial and editorial work – not sure how much I can post with publication and licensing agreements, but hopefully I’ll have some new and interesting stuff up here soon!

Cheers!

A few weeks ago, my friends Kris and Suzuanne welcomed a gorgeous little baby girl into their family! Meet little Miss Penelope at 2 weeks old!

A big yawn, followed by a little smile!

“Hey, why is no one holding me??!”

Having a little nap with big brother! (you might recognize this little guy, Oscar, from the family and children gallery on the main site!)

Oscar loves being a big brother! This photo is mega-cute!

Welcome to the new blog! I’ve moved to a new blogging provider (from blogger to wordpress) and this means, among other things, that I can post much larger photos – exciting! Along with the buffygoodman.com website, this blog will be undergoing some more renos soon as I’m having a new logo, etc. designed. So stay tuned for for exciting changes!

There’s a RSS link above, and also at the bottom, so you can add me to your feeds as well.

And if you’re looking for a post from the old blog, not to worry, they’re all here too – check out the search bar above, or look through the archive in the top menu to find what you’re looking for.

Things have been somewhat slow with regard to weddings this winter (which is fine with me, as we had 15cm of snow yesterday, and it’s MARCH 23?!?!) but I’ve been busy enough! Among other things, I’ve been doing some magazine stuff these past few months: it’s extra fun to see your work in print!

I photographed some of the winners of Alberta Best Workplaces for the March 2009 issue of Alberta Venture magazine, 3 very different, and very awesome, workplaces.

Solution 105 Consulting (where you can bring your baby to work!)

Deloitte and Touche’s gorgeous downtown office boardroom.

Workers’ Compensation Board (where you can work out whenever you want)

And this is from Jan/Feb issue of unlimited magazine, “the director’s cut” a feature on Eveline Charles.

I also recently photographed the lovely ladies of Nokomis for unlimited – they’re on the main buffygoodman.com site!

Thanks for visiting the new blog! I welcome your feedback!
