Ben, he starts next year. He will be second shooting at weddings with me. He started his training and image critique yesterday and faired out pretty good...

Ben is JUST about strong enough to be using SLR cameras now, so this is his very first shot! He took this yesterday, and its really not all that bad. He may have trouble with the focus point, but I have to give him credit! I made it black and white to make it artsy, because we all know if you make a photo black and white...it becomes art! haaha

Well if was finally my turn, for a wedding. Well, it was the second time, same girl, different location. We were officially married on March 12th in Cape Breton in a quiet ceremony so that my Dad could be present. He passed away just 15 days later, I'm very happy we made the decision to do it.

I have decided to join a global movement that is bringing much needed attention to prostate cancer.  I'm doing this by growing a Moustache this Movember, the month formerly known as November. My commitment is to grow a moustache all November and I am hoping that you will support my efforts by making a donation.  The funds raised go directly to Prostate Cancer Canada.

What many people don't know is that 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer to afflict Canadian men with 25,500 diagnosed and 4,400 dying from the disease each year.

Facts like these have convinced me I should get involved. 

To make a donation, you can either:

•    Click this link http://ca.movember.com/mospace/186435/ and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account , or
•    Write a cheque payable to 'Prostate Cancer Canada', referencing my Registration Number 186435 and mailing it to: Prostate Cancer Canada, 145 Front Street East, Ste. 306, Toronto, ON M5A 1E3, Canada.

All donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Prostate Cancer Canada will use the money raised by Movember for the development of programs related to awareness, public education, advocacy, support of those affected, and research into the prevention, detection, treatment and cure of prostate cancer.

Thank you

So, for the longest time I wanted to grow Ben's hair long, but it is just too straight! The back was becoming a mullet of the century! So, I felt bad, and put the word out that he needed a cut. It was getting so long!
