The high point of summer? Amie Le Blanc captures moments you want to bottle, and keep forever, at the Father Daughter Dance
I didn't take this photo on top of a mountain or on the beach at sunset, but it just might be my favourite shot from the entire summer. I snapped this photo at the Pemberton Father Daughter Dance earlier this summer - and I have been SO excited to share it publicly! I have had … Continue reading The high point of summer?

Downton Lake
One of our favourite camping spots used to be on the shores of Downton Lake up at Goldbridge. “Our” spot is overgrown now but for many years we would mark the start of summer by setting up a tent on its milky green shores. There is always plenty of driftwood there to keep me entertained and … Continue reading Downton Lake
The Great Crab-a-thon of 2016
When the crabapples starting dropping off the trees in town I thought to myself - Don’t panic. There is no way that they can be ready. It is two weeks ahead of last year, which was two weeks ahead of the year before. But then the heat set in and there was no doubt. The … Continue reading The Great Crab-a-thon of 2016
Throw a rock, watch it ripple. A two year old explores his own power to change the world in today’s photo from Polek Rybczynski.
Shares Polek: "Tae right now is all about throwing rocks, sticks, dirt, thankfully not too much food, and two year old tantrums. Throwing rocks into One Mile Lake has been an ultimate harmless throwing expression for the little fella. And when the lake is glass, the splash creates amazing water curves and bends. The beauty … Continue reading Throw a rock, watch it ripple. A two year old explores his own power to change the world in today’s photo from Polek Rybczynski.
A professional photographers counsels you to leave the huge equipment behind, but never leave home without an iPhone.
I am terrible at bringing my camera gear with me. Seriously. If it's not for work, I almost always leave it at home. I am a big believer in enjoying experiences firsthand, so if I am off to enjoy a birthday or fireworks, I do it camera-free. I remember missing an entire evening once because … Continue reading A professional photographers counsels you to leave the huge equipment behind, but never leave home without an iPhone.
There’s a reason Joffre Lake is one of the most photographed places in the area… but you might not have seen this perspective on it
Thanks to Ruben Guibert for the reminder to look close by, as well as up high, when seeking inspiration. Joffre Lake - one of Pemberton's perennially favourite day-trips - captured here, by our photo correspondent. Take that, Destination BC! (Or should I say, take note.)

Adventures, misadventures and possible fairy sightings
The rocks loom over me and beckon. In the wintertime, it seems like a steep but quick scramble to get high enough to explore boulder outcrops that are somehow different from the surrounding slabs. They remind me of the hoodoos around Lillooet and Pavilion so I decide to climb up the base of Mount Pauline … Continue reading Adventures, misadventures and possible fairy sightings
Celebrations: The loud, the quiet and the colourful
Earlier this month, I was given the amazing opportunity to capture the wedding celebrations of my friends, Maya & Anuj, in Alberta, Canada. 2500kms round trip, a couple different hotels, and a whirlwind of activity resulted in way over 10,000 images, which I now get to cruise through. But wow. The overflow of love and … Continue reading Celebrations: The loud, the quiet and the colourful
