Bambumoda Fashion Show - Toronto Week of Style 2007

So I walked in the Bambumoda show for Toronto Week of Style 2007 this week. It was a great show.
They showcased several collections from some amazing Canadian designers. At the event were photographers from the major news papers, TV crews from the local stations, and we were followed by star daily, and also by a few of the Toronto fashion magazines.
The idea of the show is to open up Canadian designers to international buyers, as well as showing what Canada has to offer to the press and the general public in the world of fashion.
One more great experience under my belt, and I sure did have a blast and this was just the first out of three :)

In search of the great picture

I have been having the time of my life over the past few months. I have had some of the greatest experiences and met some really cool people.
In the last few weeks I have been lucky enough to meet some really amazing photographers, and am re-building my portfolio.
It is always interesting going to meet a new photographer, as you are going into there space to work with them and you really done usually know them that well.
This week was perfect, I shot with the first two photographers , and they were wonderful, it was comfortable and easy to work with both.
I already saw a preview for both sessions and I am so excited because as we all know, a model is always in search of that one great picture.

Beautiful weather in the beautiful life

I have been casting a lot, as usual but I have made a point to walk to all of my castings because the weather has been so beautiful and sunny.
Not to mention that it is great exercise!
Life has been busy as always.
This past week I cast for a major clothing label.
I also had casting for two runway shows, a PSA, and a short film.
Also this week I shot the new CD cover for a Canadian band PB Futures. It was such a comfortable shoot with great people. I had the opportunity to meet the band and have a great night of fun.
Great projects seem to keep coming my way and I couldn't be doing better.

I am sure that the future will only bring big and better opportunities!

Casting Season

Casting Casting Casting... I feel lately like that is what takes up most of my time. In the past few weeks I have gone on castings for a CD cover, TV show host, two print campaigns, a watch commercial as well as an optical commercial and a runway show and many more.
I have also been booking a fair bit of work. I shot a commercial for a Asian restaurant, a music video for a new artist, a book cover, a new shoot for my portfolio and a boxing shoot for a photographers website.

It is always hard that you never know what your next job will be......but what a ride it has been so far, and this is just the beginning. I am sure that the summer will bring more adventures in this crazy world that will only become more exciting as time passes.

So many of you already saw my new Finesse commercial but if you haven't you can check it out at www.markmunroe.com .
I shot the commercial here in Toronto at an office building in liberty village at the beginning of March, it was shot over one day ( 10 hours) and was really fun to work on.
Yet another job that was just a wonderful experience and i am sooo happy with the finish product.
