[5] Double Crossed Freestyle Noir Photoshoot


Tanja Tiziana is a photographer in Toronto. She occasionally decides to have what she calls a “Freestyle Photo Shoot” wherein lots of people are invited to come in whatever getup they like with whatever props they want, and she proceeds to take some awesome pictures of the madness. One of her recent shoots had a noir theme, and Ryan was on hand to capture the event, as well as get a snappy pic taken (see about page). Thanks to Stephanie Tung for some of the footage!

Left Feet and Heart on Your Sleeve held their first annual Vegan Chili Cookoff, outdoors, in January. They’re insane, but so is Rebecca who was on hand to sample the offerings, get some of the secrets to contestant’s chili recipes (hint: beans), and to capture the crowning of the best vegan chili cooker in Hogtown. Check the video to find out, and then post your own recipes in the comments area (vegan or otherwise).
