End of The Olympics | Faces of the Games – Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures

Monday, March 1, 2010 Posted in People

Well folks, we’ve had our fun with this Faces of the Games thingy and now it’s over. We didn’t (even come close) to our stated goal of 2010 faces, but c’est la vie, that’s life.

But, we met a hell of a lot of people, our people skills probably improved (asking strangers to take their picture will do that!) and hopefully the people who viewed this for the last 6 or 7 weeks enjoyed it.

Back to business and back to Nordica Photography for us! Speaking of which – we’ve still got available dates this spring, summer and fall for weddings if you haven’t book your photographers yet, and if you haven’t checked out our Social Media Photography packages, take a look!

Inukshuk | Rocks | Faces of the Games – Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures

Thursday, February 25, 2010 Posted in Aesthetics Around The City, Olympic Related

This little guy is probably one of many that you’ve seen around Vancouver (or Canada) lately: An Inukshuk. The Inukshuk has become the symbol of these games, and what a rad way to brand these Olympics. If you look at London 2012’s logo, on the other hand, my God. We’re pretty lucky here in Canada!

But what’s cool about this one is it is one of dozens and dozens that have been built along the Seawall right now. More or less beside GM Place is where you’ll find them and it’s a sight to be seen!

So, this little fella’ is our face for today!

A Helmet | A Woman | Faces of the Games – Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures

Wednesday, February 24, 2010 Posted in Olympic Related, People

This is epic. It’s a protester who is totally prepared for whatever may come her way by wearing a helmet. Mad respect for her passion for protesting!

Speaking of epic, how about this Faces of the Games project? Not trying to toot our own horn, but we’ve actually been able to get peoples’ kick ass head shots everyday for well over month! We’re not going to win any awards for this little feat, but it’s definitely improved our personal skills!

Snowboarding in Vancouver | Faces of the Games – Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures

Tuesday, February 23, 2010 Posted in Olympic Related, People, Places to See, Robson Street, Street Artists

This crazy person was jumping up and down on a trampoline attached to a snowboard. We heard the reason he was doing this was as a protest about global warming because the North Shore Mountains have no snow – but cannot confirm or deny that rumour.

Anyways, we’ll just go with him being a super street entertainer who wasn’t protesting anything but just having some fun. The Games certainly have brought some awesome and creative street entertainers to our city, and they’re talents and enthusiasm will surely be missed once the Olympics are over!

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures | Street Artists Ensemblé | Faces of the Games

Monday, February 22, 2010 Posted in Olympic Related, Street Artists

So here’s a tip to all cities of the world who are seeking a way to experience an influx of rad streets artists: Host the Olympics. Simple eh?

Vancouver is buzzing right now with all sorts of wicked and ridiculously talented street folks, and they sure as heck weren’t here before the Games strolled into town. Of course we (as in Vancouver) had a wide array of street artists pre-Games, but the people working the streets right now certainly have upped the ante.

Alas, here are a few of our favourites. And for the love of Peter, Paul and Mary: Stick around after the Games buskers and entertainers! You add a great lifeline of excitement to the city!

Canadian Family | Faces of the Games – Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures

Sunday, February 21, 2010 Posted in Clothes, Everyday People, Olympic Related, People

One thing that is very noticeable about these Games is the fantastic family atmosphere. There are endless free / not-free activities for families to embark on, and it’s probably mind-boggling awesome for kids. High-five to all the organizers for the wicked balance between party-venues and family-venues!

This lovely young family were cruising around Yaletown on a ridiculously sunny day. Pretty good looking family eh!

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures | Faces Of The Games | Dutch Guys

Saturday, February 20, 2010 Posted in Clothes, Olympic Related, People, Tourists

Before this ridiculously awesome Olympic period is over, we’re going to get more picture of the visiting athlete’s rad clothes. A lot of rad colours and styles going on right now, and we’re really digging it.

These fella’s are from the orange machine known as The Netherlands. They’re orange, they’re happy, and they love Earls Girls.

Thanks lads!

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures | Fun Hats | Costume Dude | Faces of the Games

Friday, February 19, 2010 Posted in Everyday People, People

Yeah – We’re not really sure what this guy was going (probably protesting something?) but he had a funky costume and was all about getting his picture taken. So, here you go!

Today’s is ‘Hats’ and we’re pretty sure that’s a Coke hat on his head, so he wins today’s prize for oddest hat-costume ensemble.

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures | Fun Hats | High-Fivin’ Dude | Faces of the Games

Friday, February 19, 2010 Posted in Everyday People, People

How about this guy too eh? Just a beauty!!!! Loving his unique Canada hat. We met him in Yaletown and he was trying to sell us some stuff (we weren’t sure what, but whatever is in his left hand).

Anyways, he was a cool fella’ and thanks a lot for letting us take this picture!

(Oh, and we did give him a high-five afterwards – that was what he was asking for in addition to trying to sell us stuff)

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Pictures | Fun Hats | Bearded Dude | Faces of the Games

Friday, February 19, 2010 Posted in Everyday People, People

There’s a point in every mans life where you have to just say ‘Screw It’ and grow a beard like this. Jakob has tried a few times, and Cole has successfully reached this point more then a few times.

If you can find a hat like this guys and combine it with the ‘Screw It’ beard, even better! What a beauty!

Thanks a lot Mr Bearded man for letting us take your picture – and we love your killer style!
