A little press for the lazy photographer

Posted on February 16, 2022 by The Lazy Photographer

Well this was a nice surprise. A week or so back I’d printed and framed an image I made and then gave it to the restaurant I was shooting. They were delighted by the unexpected gift. I then shared the … Continue reading →

Posted on August 25, 2020 by The Lazy Photographer

So my buddy Geoff, with whom I spend a lot of time out and about shooting Toronto streets, is having his first photography exhibition. It’s not a huge show, but it’ll be great. If you happen to live in Toronto, … Continue reading →

Dave Bottoms’ Guide to Street Photography

Posted on December 10, 2019 by The Lazy Photographer

My 15 minutes of fame (well, only 5.15 minutes, but you get the point). Here’s a street photography video along with my shooting experience with Fujifilm’s new XPro3. Dale, from Vistek Toronto, shot and produced the piece. I think he … Continue reading →

Posted on November 23, 2019 by The Lazy Photographer

Went out again to shoot more video for the upcoming Fujifilm XPro3 review. I thought this portrait came out nice. The video should be ready within a couple of weeks. I’ll share it here when the time comes.

Puppet

Posted on May 2, 2019 by The Lazy Photographer

I shot this on Queen St near City Hall late March. If his sign doesn’t encourage people to contribute I don’t know what will. He’s actually an articulate and intelligent gentleman. He doesn’t like using shelters because he’s been robbed … Continue reading →

Girl at Moon Bean Cafe

Posted on March 26, 2019 by The Lazy Photographer

I shot this lovely young lady at Kensington Market on the weekend. The light on her was fantastic. I also have a b/w version but I really think the colour one works best. I shot this with the 18/2 prime … Continue reading →

Cloudy Day Shades

Posted on December 17, 2018 by The Lazy Photographer

I didn’t really talk to this guy. Just pointed at my lens and then pointed at him and nodded. He nodded back and I snapped a couple of shots of him. Sometimes it’s better to have as little conversation as … Continue reading →
