calling all vancouver photographers

WE NEED YOU!

yesterday at java times, dave of DQ studios and i chatted briefly about the new blog.
he gave me an idea that he saw on a blog in portland, OR for photogs:

anyone who has something to blog, be it something you just learned, something you want to pass on, a couple images, something coming up that photogs would be interested in, in fact ANYTHING related to us photogs, you are welcome to blog it.

if you would like to contribute to our blog, i need to add you as a blog author. please contact us and we'll get you set up and you can start sharing!

seriously...can you imagine how much fun this would be to shoot!?
