Hotel Vancouver 80th Anniversary Shoot

When Rebecca from Fairmont Hotel Vancouver first called me about an upcoming photo shoot for their 80th Anniversary that would be inspired by unique and interesting stories in the hotels’ history I was immediately excited to come onboard. Dennis Gocer from The Collective You led the way coming up with 7 portrait shots and I jumped into Casting & Production.

Potentially my favourite casting gig to date as on top of our two awesome leads (Callum Gunn + Daniella Filer) I got to cast our hero horse - Regallo - and some falcons for our Bellman shot.

We shot over one long production day and I remember laughing through my 1st AD morning meeting announcement when I said “Ok first up we have a shot in the ballroom with Regallo the horse, then we move up to the rooftop for our Bellman shoot with the Falcons and then De Beers arrives with our jewellery for some portraits”. Definitely a fashion shoot!

Fairmont Vancouver Notch 8 Restaurant Launch

Working with the Fairmont is always amazing but getting the opportunity to Produce a stills and video campaign for their new restaurant launch was a tonne of fun!  Notch 8, based in Hotel Vancouver, pays homage to the hotel's history as one of the legendary railway hotels built by the Canadian Pacific and the Canadian National Railways and as such has slight design features that mimic this railway history.  Shooting in such a cool space with a hint of history and old world charm inspired both the video and stills team to deliver some incredible work!
