Photographs capture a moment in time – or can take us back in time. They make us stand in awe of nature, marvel at an artisan’s creation, share the depth of feeling in a moment…or simply smile at a fond memory.

I try to share my journey, my vision, through the lens of my camera.

Anyone with a camera can take photos – it takes skill & experience to turn vision into art.

About the Photographer

I have always been a student of art & photography. Since childhood I have collected photos of my journeys – from the Equator to the tip of the Bruce Peninsula. I am largely self taught, though the artistic gene runs heavily through my family…I have studied the art of my relations – some well known, some not -  among many others, for both inspiration and to develop my skill as an artist.

When not shooting “for the art of it”,  I shoot photos for websites, events, restaurants, fashion, musicians…

I also act (physically and voiceover) for radio, theatre, film, television and frequently as a period inspired character (Capt. John Swallow – Buccaneer, Michael Furey – Victorian Gentleman Rogue…) at festivals, special events and providing historical tours/talks.

Though currently located at the head of Lake Ontario in the port of Hamilton (Ontario, CA), the historic port of New Orleans (Louisiana, US) is my second home and I spend as much time there as possible each year as well as annual visits “down de Bayou”.

About the Photography

I am available for photo shoots on location; pricing, scheduling and travel are considered for each project. Editorial, Commercial, Fashion, Entertainment, Lifestyle…etc. – all options if you do not want the same vanilla shots that a hundred other photographers can shoot.
If you are an artist and wish to make prints of your paintings, I can shoot those for you and provide them optimized on a CD or your external drive, ready to print.

All projects are treated professionally regardless of content. A Professional Stylist is available on request and I can often provide custom or period inspired clothing & props (and a few interesting locations).

Prints of my work are available for sale in various sizes, please inquire. Prints are generally priced/sold frameless so that you may have it matted and framed to suit your environment.

Additional photos and editorial/essays can be viewed at JPG Magazine.
