WWPD 2024

April 28, 2024 by Nicole Small | Journal Entries

I had a whole day planned outdoors with my 8×10 box camera to create some pinhole photographs but I got stood up! I had to at least try something and here is one I took on my balcony for this special day. Man am so I bummed out. I am not sure what to do anymore, to get the opportunity to collaborate with others on some of my personal projects, I do not believe that I am intimidating or am […]

Photo Walk (#2) with Biere et Camera Mtl

March 4, 2024 by Nicole Small | Journal Entries

This will be somewhat of an unusual entry but for me personally, a significant one! Yesterday, I joined the @bieresetcamera.mtl photo group for another photo walk and I think that I am starting to develop more of a liking to the street photography thing. This was quite a special day for me because as most of you may know, I enjoy documenting my excursions and all though it was not really planned, for the first time , I got to […]

February 7, 2024 by Nicole Small | Journal Entries

Before I get into the topic of pinhole photography, which will be the topic of the next live stream, I would like to thank all of you who took the time to join me on my YouTube livestream last Sunday! Your presence and support were absolutely crucial to making it a success.   Now, I understand that pinhole photography has been explored countless times before, so you might be wondering why I would be intrigued to host a live stream […]

The Wall Has Come Down

January 9, 2024 by Nicole Small | Journal Entries

When embarking on the creation of a series of self-portraits, I often find myself becoming immersed in a world of isolation. Mentally consumed by the intricate details of what to do and what comes next, I become completely engrossed and invested in the process. Each individual possesses their own unique vision and purpose when undertaking a creative pursuit. For me, there is an undeniable allure in the art of crafting something from scratch, using only the most basic of materials, and […]

Photo Walk with Bières & Caméras Montreal

October 18, 2023 by Nicole Small | Journal Entries

This was my second group photo walk, which was hosted by another group I found on Instagram, @bieresetcameras.mtl. This day did not start out as well as the first photo walk, and that is because I ended up arriving late at the meeting spot. I had high hopes that I would eventually bump into the group, so I started on my way, working the streets of Montreal. I did end up meeting the group about an hour and a half […]

First Group Photo Walk with VibeCapture Magazine

October 5, 2023 by Nicole Small | Journal Entries

In the last month, I’ve been taking part in some group photo walks here in Montreal. I took part in my first photo walk, which was organized by @vibescapturemagazine. I must admit that despite never having been in a group this size before, I immediately felt at home.   Most of you know that I am not a street photographer, but it doesn’t hurt to try something new at least once.
