On Site Photography
Hello Everyone:
My name is Tanya Everett and I am the official photographer for the 2018 Canada Cup being held in Moncton. I have been a photographer for 15 years photographing all major and minor events in Moncton and the surrounding areas, including the Moncton Fisher Cats for the last 4 years. I also photograph Families, Weddings, School Events and much more.
I am so pleased to be involved in such a great event and am looking forward to capturing some amazing images, providing great memories for everyone in attendance.
I will be on site all week providing images for anyone who wishes to purchase them. Order forms will be available closer to the event and can be e mailed out to anyone who wishes to purchase a photo or photos but can not attend the event. Forms will also be available on site. Small format same day prints will be available along with digital images e mailed to parents that they will be able to print to an 8x10 image. All 8x10 images will be done with the players name, team name, and tournament information. Anyone wishing to order a print instead of a digital image, arrangements can be made. Payment will be e mail transfer or cash on site.
With time permitting, I am hoping to be able to do a team photo of each team in attendance which will also be available for purchase. This photo will include the team name, players name, date of the Canada Cup etc and will be an 8x10 print size.
Throughout the tournament, images can be viewing on my facebook page. If there is a player on the team that can not be posted on social media or in newspapers for any reason, please let me know as soon as possible. All of my contact information will be listed below.
If anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask.
Thank you,
Tanya Everett Photography
