Raised in Abbotsford, have lived in Kamloops for almost two years now with my wife and six children (ranging from two months to 14 years).
Why do you use Instagram?
I love sharing photos and videos. I have tried blogging and even with Facebook…but as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words and I am happy to say thousands of words through photos and video.
I also love viewing other people's photos and videos and it's been especially helpful for us to learn of places to go hiking and visit around Kamloops.
The people of Kamloops have done a really good job with publicizing where we can go to enjoy the outdoors, as well as the bike trail maps you can get and the outdoor skating rinks in the winter.
What will people see on your feed?
Lots of landscape photos. Some of my family and friends as well.
Does your page have a specific style?
I'm not sure if there is a specific style, but if you think I have one I'd love to hear about it
Favorite Instagram accounts to follow?
Man, there are too many to say…but I suppose there a few I could name from the area:
@hikekamloops (which has been so helpful for finding trails!)
@winterhawkstudios (I live aurora borealis)
@matildaface (slappin_shutters)
@wwwvalerywww (for some reason I always think Valleyview when I read her name
I'm sure you don't want an exhaustive list, so I will leave it at that.
How do you decide on your location for shoots?
Basically wherever I go have my camera ready (if it's my cell phone which I know I'll have, I am currently using the lg g6 and quite enjoying it).
Biggest Instagram moment?
Hm, I cannot think of one.
Maybe after this article I will have one?
