A moment frozen in time

I recently ventured out to a secluded location on the Elbow River, near Stampede Park in Calgary, with photographer Ramsey Kunkel and my long-time friend Heather Petrie Hill in tow. We were going on a photo shoot for a new single, soon be released along with a flurry of other songs that we’ve been working on. 

We thought an image of a woman angelically dressed – white skirt and a top with a print of a humming bird (to hide a wetsuit) – floating just below the surface of the water might be a good visual to go along with the song. It seemed like a good idea at the time … until I got cold feet. Well, cold everything, for that matter! 

Although the wetsuit kept my core warm underneath the white, flowy garb (I also came armed with a recovery drink of tea), nothing prepared me for this! The water was faster and much colder than expected, and the minus 6 C temperature and wind chill didn’t help matters. 

However, we persevered – Ramsey much better than I (he must have ice in his veins). He even caught me as I floated downstream like an iceberg off the coast of Newfoundland. 

Here is one of the photos Heather took from that photo shoot – the moment that I was frozen in time. For more photos from the day, visit my photo gallery.

Stay tuned for more on my latest tunes!

    That is true dedication to the art! Can't believe you braved those elements as it wasn't a warm fall day by any means! Can't wait to see the outcome of the photo session!!!
