The JTP crew got an extended summer last fall, shooting in and around Ontario for the 2017 Spring/Summer Issue of Canadian Tire’s WOW Guide. We would like to thank the creative team and our dedicated crew of assistants, stylists, and retouchers for all their hard work.
Check out all the Behind The Scene shots of us ‘working’ hard. And be sure to pick up your copy of the WOW Guide!
A little while back, our crew had the pleasure of spending some time in L.A. with Dean McDermott (and Tori and the kids, of course) to shoot his new cookbook, The Gourmet Dad: Easy and Delicious Meals the Whole Family Will Love.
Here are some behind-the-scenes shots from our time working on this awesome project between Toronto and Los Angeles. To our discovery, Dean is just as serious about hamming it up for the camera as he is about food.
Word to your mother.
Dean makes a face.
Our lovely prop stylist, Lara, chats with Dean.
Jessica, James’ rep, attempts to go over notes with Dean.
Soon, Margot, soon.
Some end-of-day previews.
When life gives you lemons, toss ’em on the grill.
Moustache look #1.
Quinn senses cooking afoot.
Claudia, our wonderful food stylist, lends a hand for the shoot in L.A.
… and also puts a bunch of lettuce on Dean.
Another day of mouth-watering goodness.
Moustache look #2, Italian edition.
Goofballs with meatballs.
Jessica stands in for a subtle picture with Tori. Okay, maybe not so subtle.
Michael gets a little lonely while waiting for Dean to bring him his dinner.
Just kidding, there’s no such thing as loneliness in this place.
Oh dear god, they bought more dye…
This family is actually so sweet.
Dad signs Stella’s cast.
And finally, a little relaxation for Tori and Dean after a long day of shooting.
The Holt Renfrew Holiday Book is finally out, and in its pages you’ll find all manner of sparkle and shine. James and his crew set out in the deep woods of Ontario to make these Holiday photos glow.

From the depths of the archives, we recently discovered some behind the scenes photos from one of our 2013 shoots with Canadian Tire!
It was one of our more extensive projects, where we teamed up with many talented people including “Brought To You By”. With a lot of hard work, handy work, and smiles all around, the crew powered through, creating some on set magic!

At the very least, we can say we had somewhat of a “bonding” experience, after our 2 long days in the Ganaraska Forest.
We braved a sea of mosquitoes, a couple massive storms, rescued a set of keys trapped inside a vehicle, trekked through the mud carrying a dining room, while having a laugh about the state of our pruney fingers…
Thanks again to the entire team!
