TIFF Red Carpet Images

To say it's been a busy week is a huge understatement. The 2010 Toronto International Film Festival this week has robbed me of all my time and of my birthday this week - but since I love what do, it's no problem. Yesterday was the last day of the festival (September 9-19) and so I'm posting some images from the week.

This is Russell Peters - after a brief conversation with him and a few laughs he gave me this awesome pose on the "green carpet".

As you can see this is David Suzuki and I'm riding off the coattails of etalk during the carpet.

This beautiful lady is local photographer Caitlin Cronenberg - pretty sure I have the biggest childhood crush on her ever.

I'm not sure who this is - but I think the one on the right is Kathleen Robertson from the original 90210

You can only take so many shots of the same nature. There were a lot of children at this event.

It was along hectic week and I've learned quite a bit, especially how to deal with very little social life and intense days at work with sharp deadlines. There are loads of other images but I'm saving others to sprinkle between blog posts throughout the next few months. I'm going to leave this for a few days and then start to update regularly again!
