Sad to hear the passing of #DetroitRedWings #Legend Ted Lindsay. I only ever met and worked with the man once in Toronto. Who would have thought his nick name was Terrible Ted, he was a gentleman. The #ProductionLine is together again. #hockeyworld #rip #tedlindsay #redwingshockey #terribletedlindsay #stanelycup #goat #hockeygoat #portrait #doliveiraphoto #hockeyhalloffame #hhof #hockeynews #sportillustrated #gettyimages #photographyworld www.doliveiraphoto.com

Toronto Maple Leafs Centennial

• With the Toronto Maple Leafs Centennial coming up I've been busy working with a few groups in Toronto restoring and colourizing 75+ year old photographs of Maple Leafs greats that have long since past.  It's been a humbling experience being a part of a project like this.  Honestly I've never been a Maple Leafs fan but I know how rich and great their history is and how import this up coming season is to the organization.  Here are a few example of some of the images in the process of being colourized.

Home is where the heart is

I can't express in words how great it feel to be back home on the West coast.  Even though my address on my drivers license said Toronto, ON the past 6 years I always referred to the West coast as home.  However I wouldn't give up nor do I regret my time spent in the Big Smoke.  My one regret is that it took me moving away to realize how much this part of country meant to me, how special and rare loyal friendship is and how import family is.  I happy and content with all of my accomplishments in Toronto and to the people there that help reach those heights I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I drove down to St Catharines the other week and spent the morning Old Toronto Maple Leafs' Brian Cullen at his car dealership. Appropriately named Brian Cullen Motors. Very nice man, very nice dealership and even nicer office! I did a nice portrait of Brian in his office at his desk. It's nice to finally be able to post these photos taken with association with Sportauthentix. I definitely have a back logs of photos from over the past couple years.

Found out this afternoon that cover photo I shot of David Clarkson for an issue of The Hockey News came out this morning, or at least that's what I was told, BUT apparently it comes out Sept. 9th which is what I thought!!!  Someone had sent me an instagram of the retail cover.  Got excited there for a second  So honored to be one of the first people to photograph David Clarkson as a Leaf.  Thank you so much to Bruce Bennett for the recommendation to The Hockey News, as well as thank you to everyone at The Hockey News.  It was a pleasure!   Let hope this is the first of many covers to come!
