One of my favorite moments at Rifflandia 2012

ByKeri Coles

I am a huge believer in encouraging kids to actively engage with the community that they are a part of.  From my experiences travelling in Asia with Ella I think our society has a lot to learn about bringing kids into the folds of community and supporting them in their growth to adulthood. So you can imagine my bliss and respect for Hey Ocean! when this amazing moment happened at Rifflandia. The video below the still is so precious 😉 Thank you, Hey Ocean! for being so incredibly awesome!

  • Dom & Robyn’s Wedding

    ByKeri Coles

    We just got back from a GORGEOUS wedding in Naramata. I was really excited to have Anna back shooting with me for the wedding as her law studies have kept her from shooting so far this year and I’ve been missing her energy and great eye. When we arrived at the location we felt like kids in a candy shop…the spectacular arid cliffs, the stunning blue water and a venue that was a gem!  It was the kind of location that photographers dream of! The scenery was nothing though compared to the magic that was so evident between Dom & Robyn. There…

    Victoria is oozing with musical talent at the moment, thanks to Rifflandia!  www.rifflandia.com I totally adore watching people do what they are passionate about. There is something so magical about capturing a person in their element. You realize how much work and love and time they have dedicated to it and they just glow with greatness. They look that way to me anyway. Tonight involved me thinking that I had seen the wickedest band time and time again. What I mean by that is”wow, what an awesome band! I have to tell everyone about them! oh no wait, this is…

    Rifflandia has done it once again 😉 What an incredible week of awesome shows. I am continually blown away by what a brilliant idea this festival is. 150 some bands, four nights, and one wristband. All for the love of music. Thanks to the organizers for masterminding this extravaganza. This year, I was asked to put together a crew of official photographers so that there would be a photographer stationed at each of the 10 venues every night. I couldn’t of asked for a better team. You can check out everyone’s photos in the gallery on the Rifflandia site here….

    I recently photographed Rob Kettner of Fernwood Coffee doing his magic. He was fine-tuning his skills and delivery for the Canadian Barista Championship. Just after I did the shoot he went on to win said competition 😉 Way to go, Rob!!! Click image below to view a slideshow of his winning routine. Warning- You will have a strong desire for a cup of java after viewing 😉

  • 2015. A year in review for Keri Coles Photography.

    ByKeri Coles

    I had a couple incredibly brilliant work trips this year: a ship tour with Greenpeace and a trip to Paris to cover the UN Climate Conference. In contrast to some years past, it was a fairly uplifting year to be doing environmental work in Canada (Shell pulled out of the Arctic, Canada got a new government, Northern Gateway was killed, and the Paris Climate talks are being lauded by most as a success). We aren’t used to celebrating this much!     I was on the Greenpeace ship for about six weeks, with half the time dedicated to an action…

  • Jon & Roy – Victoria BC Musician Photo Gallery – Keri Coles Photography

    I went down and photographed Jon & Roy’s CD Release Party show for their new album “Homes“. The MacPherson Playhouse was packed and the show rocked the house. Everyone was on their feet at the end of the show begging for more. Vince Vaccaro and Mother Mother opened for Jon & Roy. I gotta say…those three bands in one show make Keri a very happy girl 😉
