Jaime Vedres {Photography} – Lethbridge Photographer

Found this old polaroid I shot of the Cancer Bats while I was on tour with Alexisonfire some years ago. This was the first show they played in Lethbridge, great to see them coming back to play more shows!

I went up to Edmonton this weekend to shoot my friends opening for Kid Rock, and Bon Jovi at Commonwealth Stadium!! I heard the stadium seats 60,000 people at capacity, which makes it the biggest venue they’ve ever played at, and the biggest venue I’ve ever shot at. The photos are just being reviewed by the guys, and will be online soon. In the mean time, here is a few photos of their new album, with some of my photos. Take a listen to their music on itunes!

I had the chance to shoot some photos, and design the album artwork for the very talented Shawni Shimbashi. Here is a quick shot of the cover. Check her music out HERE

After 2+ years the Phao album has finally arrived. I started designing the cover art when I was still living in Kelowna! I used some finger paints Santa left me in my stocking, and threw paint around on the garage floor until I got some of the results seen in the album. What I am most stoked about is the two page spread in the middle of the album booklet of the full band on white seamless! Lots of work to accomplish that!

A long over due post of my epic rock adventure with Malibu Knights!! My last shoot with them was lots of fog and smoke, this year we stepped it up a notch. We ran to Rona to get some crafty materials, and made giant sized dynamite sticks! Quite the scenario that played out… Check their music out here.

Thanks to everyone that made the shoot possible!

Had a good photographer friend of mine visit from Toronto for a few days. Here’s a quick portrait I shot before he left. If you haven’t seen his work before check it out at dustinrabin.com
