I want to consume less and create more...

It made my day when I got an email from photographer Clay Enos that said simply: I dig your mantra.

I'm Travis Jon Allison. I'm a photographer from Southern Ontario, Canada and making art has always been my passion. Getting to be a photographer was one of my goals since I first borrowed my mom's Pentax Spotmatic camera and took it with me to camp for the weekend.

I thank you and my clients who have allowed me to share that passion and keep creating. It makes me very happy.

This blog is all part of my creating bug. I use it to keep a record of what's going on with me so that my clients can get to know me better and so my friends and family can keep up with what is going on in our world. One part photo album, one part journal and all me. Thanks for reading!

I hope you enjoy the blog. Please add me into your  feed reader.


Sunset Over Mount Royal

Beth and I took a long weekend vacation to do some Montreal photography last week.   It was an awesome train ride together and we got to see some old friends, eat amazing food and buy bagels.   I’ll post our photos as we get to them but I also shot this timelapse of the sunset over Mount Royal.

Outtake – Dickens’ Pub

As a Woodstock photographer I get some great opportunities to shoot people and places in our community. Here’s a quick outtake from my shoot at the Charles Dickens pub – I’m doing some work for Tourism Oxford these next couple of weeks.

Handbags for Hospice – Sakura House Fundraiser

Congratulations to VON Sakura House (our local Woodstock palliative care hospice) for a great fundraiser – Handbags for Hospice. It was a great night!

The fundraiser was a silent and live auction of a couple hundred purses – new/used, local and celebrity owned with some great deserts and a candy table. Everybody had a really fun night and they raised $42 000 for a wonderful cause.
