If you attended the events at Social Media Week Toronto 2012 (SMWTO for short), you may have seen me around. I was one of the guys with the fancy-looking cameras taking pictures of everything. And I mean everything. I was one of the SMWTO volunteer photographers! We sought shots that captured what happens at SMWTO, whether it was a presentation in a boardroom or a pick-up game on the home court of the Toronto Raptors in the Air Canada Centre. (Yeah, you read that right!)
This was the second annual SMWTO, and while I didn’t participate last year, Reggy Sy‘s call for volunteer photographers reached my ears at just the right time! It was a fun week—I tested my gear in various settings, which was great practice for next month’s Big Trip!
It was also a long and challenging week, juggling the 9-5 and arriving on time, but you can judge the results yourself! (These collections earned about 4,500 collected views the day I posted them.)

Social Media Week Toronto—Because You NEVER Know EVERYTHING.
For me, social media-related events are always interesting. As someone who isn’t from a PR/advertising/marketing background, I’m always learning something new I can take into my personal life and the things that I do as hobbies.
So, while I’m happy my hectic week is over, I’m looking forward to the rest of 2012 and the opportunities that pop up when I’m not trying to earn a living!
