Every day I look around and see moments. A smile, an embrace, two people holding hands… Those same moments are what I look for when I’m creating photographs. Whether it’s a wedding, a portrait session or a sporting event, it’s that split-second instant that tells a story, that I seek to capture.
I’ve been a professional photographer for nearly 20 years now. I love what I do and I have been very lucky to achieve some wonderful milestones and befriend some incredible people. I’ve been the Official Photographer for the World Figure Skating Championships, been published in numerous magazines including People and have had the privilege of photographing the weddings of many of Canada’s top figure skaters. My client list features names like Bank of Montreal, Coca Cola Canada, SunLife and Skate Canada.
My goal when you entrust me to create your photographs is to tell a story through images. A casual and unobtrusive style is my hallmark, allowing me to creatively render those special moments. Artistic, genuine and insightful… These are the images I create.
