Benjamin Laird Arts & Photo

From the new collection, "Rejected Logos"!

Thank you so much for this generous mention, ATP. When this is all over, the Martha Cohen Theatre is one of the first places I’m looking forward to visiting again.

Shot a simply gorgeous wedding yesterday with the most lovely group of of people. COVID be damned, we had a great evening, safely, and made some pictures.

Literally took this photo 24 hours ago at one of the most beautifully designed weddings I’ve ever seen. I’ve been dying to try this lightpainting technique for a while. So having this tremendously creative and artistic couple to work with, our aesthetic just clicked. I used a @quasarscience 48 rainbow tube and a small front LED for a little bit of fill to achieve this. It was CHILLY by this point, but bride @carolannimation was more than happy to help create this. There’s l...ots more to come, but I just had to edit one right away. . . . #yycphotographer #yycphotography #calgaryphotographer #calgaryphotography #weddings #weddingphotographer #yycweddings #calgaryweddings #yycweddingphotographer #calgaryweddingphotographer #yycarts #calgaryarts #yyctheatre #calgarytheatre #lovetoshoot #nikon #shotonnikon #nikonZ7

A year ago I was invited to photograph the new @btcalgary crew at locations throughout the city. Feels like a lifetime ago, considering what 2020 brought us. I wasn’t sure what City TV was planning to do with them, so I didn’t post any to avoid spoilers! But Sarah has posted a few, so here’s a quick share. This was a great day. . . .... #yycphotographer #yycphotography #calgaryphotographer #calgaryphotography #headshots #headshotphotographer #yycheadshots #calgaryheadshots #yycheadshotphotographer #calgaryheadshotphotographer #yycfilm #calgaryfilm #yycarts #calgaryarts #yyctheatre #calgarytheatre #yycmusic #calgarymusic #profoto #lovetoshoot #nikon #shotonnikon #nikonZ7
