Stanley Park and a trip to the ER

I had quite the eventful photo session the other day.  I drove from Maple Ridge to meet the ‘S’ family at Stanley Park and was thrilled with the blue sky and bright sunshine….that is, until I got to Vancouver which appeared to be the only part of the lower mainland covered in low cloud.  I was disappointed that I wouldn’t be able to get some beautiful sunset shots but Stanley Park is beautiful even on the worst weather days so we forged ahead.  I met ‘J’, ‘J’ and adorable little ‘O’ and the shoot began.  It went great right up until the end, when racing the fading light I ran down a set of stairs to the beach to grab one final shot.  I wasn’t paying close enough attention, slipped on some seaweed and went down (somehow instinct kicked in and I raised my camera above my head & saved it).  I ended the session, went straight to the ER and had several X-rays taken.  The bad:  cracked tailbone and a fractured rib.  The good:  it happened at the END of the session and I have some great images to give my clients.  Thanks guys for the help post-fall!!    Enjoy your session teasers!
