"A photographer’s growth, both technical and artistic, is a lifelong pursuit. An essential part of growth is the giving and receiving of feedback. Both these parts can be intimidating and a few tips of how to navigate these landmines are starting points for a healthy dialogue around image critiquing." - Akemi Matsubuchi

"Light painting can be quite an involved undertaking and Adrien takes the technique to a whole new level, spending as much as five hours to capture a single image. Adrien explained the technique is especially good at focusing attention on selected areas and at bringing out texture. Also, using light in this way gives photographers lots of room to be creative. That was aptly illustrated by the truly remarkable images Adrien shared with us, both from his early career as a photojournalist as well as more recent images. The images and more, including some “how he did it” videos, can be found at Adrien’s website. It is well worth taking a look."

"Abstract photography is not limited to landscapes. The world is full of colours, shapes, palates, and details for you to capture and manipulate. Train your eye to look for potential abstract subjects and experiment with techniques no matter how unusual they are. Abstract photography is seeing the world in a different light and recognizing your power to change it." - David Buzzeo

In 2017, Candace became the first Artist in Residence for the City of Edmonton Cemeteries. Specializing in historical photographic processes, she has been working on producing a body of work on her artistic interpretation of the seven municipal cemeteries and the one traditional burial ground. Shooting with both film and digital, she has captured a variety of the elements found within cemeteries - from the landscape to the decorative work of monuments and grave markers.

"The objective of the presentation was to demonstrate a new way to look at the world around us and another way to see and capture three-dimensional details in a two-dimensional image. Urban photography is about people and objects in places or within spaces. Rick demonstrated how he sees the world in a photographic image – from the vertical lines, to the horizontal lines, to the leading lines, and also how he conveys the story of the people, objects, and places. He creates the opportunity to capture an image by observing, planning, and engaging in dialogue with individuals to learn these stories."

"Adam believes in using strong colours and creating a sense of wonder combined with ambiguous meaning in his photographs. He believes photographers need to balance the creative aspects of photography with the technical aspects. The work that Adam showed IACC on Thursday evening showed all of these aspects."
