Join AJN - Facebook Ad

With the new choir season approaching, A Joyful Noise (AJN) has asked us to create a distinctive ad that captures the essence of their community and sets them apart from other choirs in Edmonton.

To achieve this, we filmed interviews with choir members, allowing them to share their personal experiences of being part of the AJN family.

The colours featured in the ad symbolize the three levels of AJN choirs and are consistent with the choir’s broader branding and promotional materials.

Monin - Cocktail Collection

For this product shoot, I brought Monin’s Cocktail Collection to life using a Panasonic camera and a carefully designed three-light setup to capture the vibrant essence of these gourmet flavorings. The session was set in the cozy yet stylish Mood Cafe in Edmonton, where the lush greenery and warm wood tones provided the perfect backdrop. Every shot was designed to tease the senses, blending the vibrant colors of the bottles with the inviting ambiance of the setting. The result? A series of images that feel as rich and indulgent as the syrups themselves—crisp, alluring, and undeniably fun.

Choir - Final Concert

A single photo, if done right, can often tell an entire story.

In this instance, the image captures the final moment of a season-ending choir concert. You don't need to see the audience to understand the impact; the expressions and body language of the choir members make it clear that they are receiving a standing ovation.

Speech Dojo - Timeline

A short video showcasing the journey of Speech Dojo and their accomplishments. Their achievements have enabled kids across Alberta to enhance their public speaking skills.

Mayer & Boch - Products

Mayer & Boch requested a video showcasing as many of their products as possible in under 2 minutes. Initially, we considered a simple slideshow presentation. However, after a brainstorming session, we developed a more dynamic approach.

We decided that the best way to highlight the products was to show them in use. Filmed handheld with minimal editing, the video effectively demonstrates the range and quality of Mayer & Boch's products, giving customers a more authentic experience. (Starring my mom as a chef <3)

Motorsports - E&S

I had very limited time with Jamie, a salesperson at E&S Motorsports. To address this, we decided to film handheld and improvise, allowing us to capture footage quickly.

While this approach enables fast filming, the downside is that post-production for such projects tends to be more time-consuming.

Despite this, the spontaneity and rawness of the footage often lead to more authentic and engaging content.
