A few weeks ago I heard back from the 'big cheese' in charge (he was rushing around getting all the permissions he needed for the go ahead - THANK YOU) and we set up a date for our photoshoot 'diversity in the workplace'. I was a little nervous because I had never been to a firehall and didn't really know what I was looking for, or what I should expect when I got there. Knowing ahead of time that I wasn't allowed to go on any ride alongs *sad face* I was hoping to capture some cool pictures of the equipment that they use, and lucky me, I also got to take pictures of them doing CPR training. Usually firemen are first on scene so this part of the job is essential!!
Here are a few of my favourite pictures from firehall 14:
"we are all Canucks" - love it!
This is where the magic happens. Where the firefighters take calls and map out routes to their location..
OK. So a 'few' of my favourites turns out to be more than a few. I was fortunate enough to get there in time to see them doing their truck checks - making sure all equipment was in the truck and working properly, along with making sure all of their proper gear was on board, and like I said earlier, I was also fortunate enough to catch them doing CPR training and even got to hear a few calls come in over the pa system (so loud that it scared me the first time! HA!)
Thank you so much to the team at hall 14 for working with me and making the morning fun!!
