Back in early summer was contacted by Rachel Martinuk, an incredible designer based here on Vancouver Island. She asked me to photograph a store she designed for Shelter Clothing right downtown Courtenay. It was an absolute honor to work beside her, with a solid idea of the visuals she was after, it was just a matter of some slight tweaking to get the photo just right. Beautiful design space on Vancouver Island.

This was my first time photographing a store, I love new things and a challenge of understanding a new space. Looking forward to more.
