A different kind of family shoot I was out with a friend shooting some landscapes. As we were about to leave I spotted something moving in the woods. To my great surprise it was a group of deer. It’s not often I get the chance to photograph wildlife. I know there is lots on the outskirts of the city so it was pretty cool to see them and capture some shots. Are we connected? LIKE me on...
read moreI did a baby bump session back in December for a fellow photographer/friend. I was honoured that Todd and Amanda allowed me to share in such an exciting time for them as they prepared for their first child. I am pleased to say they now have a healthy baby boy Mason, and I can’t wait to meet him! Congratulations Todd and Amanda! Are we connected? LIKE me on...
read moreI had a fun mini shoot with Olivia. She is a natural in front of the camera. It was a very relaxed shoot and I think one of my favorite shots is the first one where I caught her playing with her shirt and not expecting me to shoot. She is the grand daughter of a friend and fellow photographer and will be moving to town soon to continue her education. I look forward to shooting with her again. Are we connected? LIKE me on...
read more#7/100 Strangers – Andrew, Eric, Noah & Eugene I met this group of friends out on Callander Bay ice fishing. I was there with the photoclub for a day of shooting when I seen them out on the ice. The fish were not biting much that day but after the week of -43c weather we just had, I think we were all glad to be out and doing something. It was a pretty grey day and snowing with the temp hovering around -20c with the windchill. Andrew was visiting from Barrie, Ontario and the rest of the guys are from Corbeil. They were very friendly...

read moreI remember getting my first DSLR for Christmas 2008. On boxing day I jumped right in and started a self portrait project. It was such a great way to force yourself to shoot everyday and come up with new ideas. As the year went on you find yourself learning so much about photography, Photoshop and yes even yourself. I remember I was very camera shy when I started. Now I will lay down in the road in front of a crowd to get the shot if need be. It was a year of ups and downs. I broke my ankle, I became diabetic and most importantly I pushed...

Julia Laberge was the makeup and costume designer for this project. It was great to work with new cast members Sean Morrison (as Shifu Biu) and Alexander Goldgruber (as Young Nuada) on the second half of this project....

read moreI hosted the 5th Annual Scott Kelby Worldwide Photo Walk on October 13th 2012 for North Bay. It was a cold and windy day and threatened to rain but it held off and made for a great day of interaction and fun. We all joked, got some fun shots and went out for lunch when the event was over. When I got home I realized I actually didn’t shoot a whole lot. I spent most of my time talking with fellow photographers. I am totally fine with that, it was great to get out with friends and meet a few new faces. I would like to thank everyone that...
read moreI co-shot the wedding of Dennis and Kaarina back in June with another local photographer. This beautiful couple made their special day absolutely amazing by being so easy-going and it made my job a pleasure. We shot at four different locations which brought out the unique style of this young couple. It was a rainy day but the weather cooperated long enough to get some stunning shots and give us some dramatic clouds. It’s always great to see young people in love. Thanks for choosing me to be a part of your special...
