I was delighted one winter morning four years ago when our two feet of snow quickly and quietly melted during a three day mild streak, because I knew what that meant. When the cool snow met the warm air it created this lovely blanket of fog.

It was an absolute honour to see my landscape photography grace the pages of Photo Life Magazine.

A huge thank you to Erin for including our photograph Lake Erie #4 in her recent post on ReadyMade, calling the piece “Amazing”. We’re honoured to have caught your eye!

I am over-the-moon-excited to tell you that my recent shoot with The French Press Stationery Studio made the front cover of Nonpareil Magazine! Yippee!

Be sure to check out Issue #4 of Nonpareil, A Silver Screen Soiree, as well as our piece The Day of the Rings. You can also see some special, behind-the-scenes images from this Lord of the Rings inspired shoot on our Facebook Page.

Thanks Kate for including me in your vision!

Hi Everyone!

Darren and I had a wonderful time at Art in the Village on the weekend! It was so nice to meet people in real space, as opposed to cyberspace. The weather was glorious and overcast with the rain holding off until closing time.

We learnt a lot at our first outdoor event. It definitely pays to pack the car in advance and to get there earlier then you think is necessary, trust me, you won’t be the first to arrive. We also should have brought a second white table cloth to hide our ugly sawhorse table legs and all the things we stashed underneath. And two litres of water just isn’t enough! Should have brought three, luckily there was a water fountain nearby. I also wish we had a better way to display the extra framed pieces that we had instead of on a blanket on the ground, but they were a last minute addition and I’m sure glad we brought them.

There were lots of lovely comments about our booth and how pretty our table was. We made wood photo blocks specifically for the occasion and although lots of people loved them we didn’t really sell many. That’s fine though, they are a nice trinket that caught the eye of passersby.

We were very lucky to have our booth visited by the London Free Press who included us in their online slideshow (we’re image number 5). Yippee!

We had such a great time at this art in the park type event that we’d definitely like to do more! What is your favourite art event in your area?

PS. Thanks to everyone that stopped by our booth, and a special thank you to Darren, for having more faith in me than I had in myself!

My heart skipped a beat when I read the introduction Katie wrote to accompany my interview on her Art Wall blog!

Quiet simpicity.

That’s it exactly! The precise feeling that I want my work to radiate. To hear someone say that about my photographs warms my soul.

Thank you so much Katie! You certainly made my week!

You can read the interview on Katie’s Art Wall Blog.

Thank you Vanessa! Vanessa is an admin over at Etsy and who also puts together articles for their blog The Storque. In a recent piece about Favourite Calendars, Cards, and Journals she included our Peony #16 Modern Fine Art Notecard. We’re flattered to be included in such an inspiring collection!

Our pink Peony #16 Modern Fine Art Notecard (available in our cards section) is professionally printed on pearl cardstock which gives it an iridescent quality that almost makes it sparkle. These cards are blank inside and come with a matching envelope, perfect for birthdays, Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, thank you messages, and all kinds of other whimsical notes.

Also available in sets of 10, 25, or more, and as flat postcards too. We can even create a card set for you with your choice of image from our shop. Contact us for more information.

Wow! I am so incredibly honoured to have my seascape images featured on Design*Sponge! I am speechless with delight! Click over there and see what they have to say about my photography: Jennifer Squires on Design*Sponge.

If you are new to Jennifer Squires Productions and are coming here from Design*Sponge, well hello! We’re pleased to meet you! I’m Jennifer Squires Ross and together with my husband Darren Ross we run a small photography business out of our home in London, Ontario, Canada. I specialize in picture taking and picture making and Darren is fondly known as the CFO (chief fax operator) and takes care of administrative tasks, plus he makes a mean hot chocolate; earning himself extra points at 5am when I’m off to a location shoot.

I’ve been photographing professionally since 1996 and opened our online shop in 2008. This blog supports both our shop and our website, and is also sprinkled with other little posts that I thought you might find interesting (including some really yummy recipes).
