My good friend, Rachael took this amazing photograph on my recent trip home to Vancouver. It wasn’t a planned trip, as it was booked 5 days prior to leaving. It was a trip I didn’t want to go on, but it was necessary to investigate and observe my father’s health condition.

So towards the tail end of my trip, I got to get away a bit, and hang out with Rachael, and try to be photogenic for her portrait shots ;) We drove around to spots where either of us had seen lovely red maple trees, and Rachael did her magic to photograph me.

This photo is my favorite, there are two others in her online album/set, part of her new portrait series. Check it out: Rachael Ashe.
