We are talking to photographers and creatives about themselves – what drives them to do what they do and how they were inspired along the way. In looking at our tech based world, we realized that no one was talking about inspiration, desire, drive or creativity and we thought that it was about time.

Sonja Scharf and Kelly Kevin - an inspiring creative couple
<p>I started talking to partners because I wanted to learn how a partnership can help you stay focus - stay inspired - to help you keep creating.</p> <p>I asked Sonja and Kelly to talk with me because I have witnessed the growth of their gallery and wanted to hear their story. Many couples (at some point) take a pause or pull back from one another as their business grows -so much of their energies goes into the business instead of each other. But interestingly, Sonja and Kelly seem to have come closer together. Their differences have helped them build their business and (in my opinion) their relationship. </p> <p>Its so much fun to see how these two creative people see each other: love their quirks; admire their stregnths; understand their... not stregnths; but totally in each other's corners. </p> <p>These wonderful women have taught me so much and I am thrilled to share this conversation with you.</p> <p>Please visit Akasha Art Projects at...<a href= "https://akashaart.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AKASHA ART PROJECTS</a></p> <p>or visit their instgram at @akashaart</p>

Talking with Hon. Marie Charette-Pouline and Bernard Poulin - what a conversation
<p>There are no words to adequately describe this conversation - it blew me away. </p> <p>So often a family has one person who is "the go-getter" but when you meet a couple whose relationship could only be defined as "reaching for the stars" - you just have to talk to them.</p> <p>After 50 years of marriage, Mme. Charette-Poulin and M. Poulin still talk about each other as if they just met. The admiration, respect and love that they have for each other is obvious and awe inspiring. I am convinced this is one of many reasons why they have reached the heights that they have. The path that each has followed - personally, professionally and together within their relationship - demonstrates the importance of exploration, laughter and commitment to a greater vision.</p> <p>My biggest take away - if you are going to continue to evolve and succeed, the relationship that you have with yourself is as important as the relationship you have with your partner.</p> <p>It was such an honour that this couple took time out of their busy lives to share stories of their lives and how they stay focused and inspired.</p> <p> </p> <p>Please ensure that you read their books - </p> <p><a href= "https://press.uottawa.ca/en/9780776637976/she-dared-to-succeed/"><em> She are to Succeed - A Biography of the Honourable Marie-P. Charette-Poulin</em></a></p> <p><a href= "https://www.bernardpoulin.com/bap-book.html"><em>Bernard Aime Poulin - a portrait</em></a></p> <p>A lovely overview of Bernard's portfolio can be found at... <a href= "https://www.bernardpoulin.com/home-english.html">bernardpoulin.com</a></p> <p>Bernard also has many great books on creating art and drawing on his website.</p>

Defend the Darkroom with Chris Nicholls
<p>In my head, a photo shoot is loud and bright and full of people running around. A gorgeous model stands in front of a camera with a wind machine blow their hair back - the model looks moody and the photographer is yelling at them to give them.... something.</p> <p>Then there is real life... or at least real life during a Chris Nicholls shoot. </p> <p>Quiet music plays in the background - the stylists, who I thought ran around at a frantic pace trying to apease the photograher, are calmly discussing alternative poses and options with the client. The photographer (Chris) is working with his assistant to ensure that the lighting is perfect and possible selects are noted. Its anything but a crazy rock and roll scene from the movies.</p> <p>Chris Nicholls is like any professional at the top of his game - he comes prepared. He loves to work with a good team. Most of all, he is a photographer but that is only one part of his persona - he is also a father, a builder, a husband and so much more.</p> <p>A huge thank you to Chris for taking time to talk with me. I hope that you enjoy this conversation - I know I certainly learnt alot about the importance of being a part of a team.</p> <p>Please visit <a href="https://chrisnicholls.live/">Chris' website</a> for a complete portfolio of his current work.</p> <p> </p>
