The photos above were taken by my friend Ray Van Kleef when he, Jeff and I were having brunch at Sugar Cafe (942 Queen St. W. 416.532.5088) yesterday morning.

I've always seen good portrait photography as being a combination of technical knowledge and the ability to capture the essence, but mainly the latter. I don't have the technical know-how so usually aim at the latter. Ray is good at both.

You can see some of Ray's other photos here. Just a few of my favourite Ray photos:

Beckett Gladney

Another of my friends with amazing photography skills is Beckett Gladney, and you can see her photos here. And here's an interview with Beckett on Utata.

Just a few of my favourite Beckett photos:

Dave Huth

I met Dave Huth through my friend Rand. Here's a link to my Blathering about Dave, in case you missed it. I especially enjoyed a recent entry in 90 Seconds of Dave called "Where Does Laughter Come From?" which does a great job at capture the essence of "little kid humour." :-)

Dave is also a gifted portrait photographer, as you can see from this photo collage he did of Rand in his Dave's Friends & Family Photoblog.

Craig White

You should also check out my friend Craig White's Flickr set. Craig focuses more on landscapes and urban settings than people; his TTC shots have been getting a great deal of attention in the past year. This photo, for example, hit #1 on Flickr's "Most Interesting" page. One of my Craig photo favourites is this photo, which also made Flickr's Most Interesting page.

Craig is the editor of MapArt, a company which makes the best maps in the world.

Four more days until FilKONtario.
