Cloak of Calmness
While continuing with a photo-journalistic approach, I began to study and learn the art of landscape photography. It was a personal challenge but I loved that it forced me to really look at things, not just see them. To take an every day view but find a way to make it simply spectacular! This new pursuit pushed me to uncover dynamic and unique perspectives. Whether revealed with creative angles, various shutter speeds, light painting or general composition. As my skills developed, so did my desire to shoot beyond the scope of sports and landscape
This determination slingshot me into the world of Lifestyle and Event Photography where I embraced the challenge of shooting in the moment and finding a way to tell a story by capturing that "one moment" in time. This is the world as I see it.

Entering the world of Photography 21 years ago, I have worked an honed my skills as a Photojournalist and Sports Photographer. My first professional contract took me across this beautiful country shooting the Canadian Superbike Series. Travelling coast to coast, I was immersed in a world of high speed & spectacular action where I learned the exciting trade of Sports Photography and in some of the most challenging shooting conditions imaginable. The result?... I was hooked. And soon determined to grow and develop my skills in the art of photography.While continuing with a photo-journalistic approach, I began to study and learn the art of landscape photography.
