I thought I would start this off with a link to a fantastic song.
Viveca here. Without my partner in crime, Ashley Westerager. (boohoo)
First off, we would like to congratulate the ECU grads of 2012! (that means you, Alex and Wilson)
Unfortunately, the end of these grads journey at Emily Carr also means the end of ECU portraits in the hands of Wilson Lau and Alex Chen. They both started up Portraits of Emily Carr a few months back. Just like UBC’s and SFU’s student-run portrait blogs, Alex and Wilson went around campus capturing student faces and a question of the week. Since they are off to bigger and better things, someone had to continue the weekly tradition! So, Ashley and I decided to attack this one and carry it on throughout our time at Emily Carr. We are both entering the Communication Design degrees, but have always had a big interest in photography. Hopefully this will keep those interests intact!
From Foundation students to Degree Grads, everyone in between has been running around our little campus throughout the last month of April, scrambling to finish final projects, or present pieces in our year-end shows! Unfortunately, Ashley and I have been a little absent from the Emily Carr scene after completing our first year and foundation show. While the Degree Exhibition was setting up, it was a little more that challenging to find some students around campus to capture their answers and faces. All in all, we apologize for the very very few photos in this first post. However, I will be around campus for the months of July and August (getting ahead in school), so don’t be afraid to show your faces!
The question of the week was: “What was your highlight of Spring Semester 2012?”

Chiara, 4th year Industrial Design
IDSA’s portofolio review in Seattle.

Georgia, Foundation student
Getting the chance to explore photography from different approaches, perspectives, and mediums.
Aaaaaaaand Finally (drumroll please!)
We got to ask Wilson and Alex their very own question of the week! (d’awww!)
“What was your most fond memory throughout your four years at ECU?”

Alex, 4th year Communication Design
Throwing paper planes throughout the South Building.

Wilson, 4th year Industrial Design
Making all these friends along the way who have enriched my life.
Whoa! Alright, that was a little easier than I expected. Thank you, wordpress!
I guess I insert group shots here now?
PS -
I actually have no clue who this guy is. But he insisted on being in ECU Portraits so Alex and Wilson snapped his profile.
…So you. Here you go!

Peace, kiddies! Hope to see you around in the summer!
