Working With Tourism Medicine Hat
You might have thought that with my sizeable library of images from around Medicine Hat, Alberta (and the region at large) that I would've already been working with local tourism. The truth is that it wasn't until this spring, under a brand new contract, that Tourism Medicine Hat brought me into the fold to utilize some of my photography.
They kicked things off this year by purchasing a selection of my images that featured in the 2015 Medicine Hat Tourism Guide & City Map. A number of the spreads feature samples of my photography from Stampede to Red Rock Coulee to the Clay District and a bit of everything in between. The cover of the guide is also made up of my original images, but more surprising to me, it prominently features my silhouette walking through Police Point Park - something I hadn't realized they'd done until I saw a preview of the guide going to print.
Also cool, I collaborated with Tourism Medicine Hat to create a special print run of my Around the Hat postcards to sell in the Visitor Information Centre next to the Saamis Teepee. We agreed on 20 variations of the postcards that are available exclusively through them. After expanding my connections with other tourism boards, it feels great to finally be teaming up with the one in my own city. I wouldn't be surprised if this was just the beginning!

First Hawaiian International Auto Show 2015
It was purely by coincidence that the 2015 First Hawaiian International Auto Show was on the weekend we arrived in Honolulu back in March. It was an absolute blast to see so many new cars under one roof. Not to mention, it was the perfect introduction to my experience renting the Bentley Continental GTC to road trip around Oahu later that week.
Similar to the Calgary International Auto Show last year, I had to kick things off by checking out the offerings from Jaguar. As a former owner and with my Jaguar road trip in California preceding this experience, I was like a kid in a candy store. On top of that, there was something pretty thrilling about checking out the luxury cars from JN Exotics (including the Bentley) knowing that I'd be behind the wheel in just a few a days. It was a dream.
