Back to School Fun
A tradition now 18 years strong, Fall Orientation Week is a rite of passage for all University of Calgary students and is their official welcome to the campus community. New students meet their fellow classmates and members of the campus community while participating in fun events.
An Astronaut and a Bucket of Water
Meanwhile, back at the University of Calgary… former astronaut and current university chancellor Robert Thirsk made a donation and accepted the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. Thirsk earned a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Calgary in 1976.
Convocation 2014
Whenever I see a university graduation ceremony in a movie, it is outside on a beautiful summer day. Unfortunately, a pitch black gymnasium and hallways filled with horrible florescent lights are the reality when I am taking photos during the week long convocation ceremonies at the University of Calgary every June.
Where Are We?
Can you guess where on the University of Calgary campus this photo was taken? In a new feature in the back of every issue of U Magazine called ‘Where Are We?’, readers try to guess where on the University of Calgary campus a photo was taken.
Fun with the Class Ambassadors
Every year at the University of Calgary, a lucky group of students are chosen by their peers to represent their graduating class. How does one get elected to be a Class Ambassador? By being awesome. I had a blast spending an hour with this energetic group of students.
Larger Than Life
I feel really lucky that as a photographer, I’ve had my work published in a variety of places. I remember how great it felt the first time I got a two-page spread in a newspaper. Or how the first time my photos were published in a magazine on beautiful glossy paper was so satisfying.
