I'm a photographer, and this blog is all about sharing my work. Through the images presented here I hope you'll experience the fun, energy, honesty and emotion I have been entrusted to document.

I specialize in the photography of family history because I love to create memorable images of real life, both for you and for your entire family. If that sounds interesting, drop me a line. I’d love to talk with you.

Until then, welcome.

I love it when a plan comes together.

When planning for Sarah’s nigh-time magic session I decided to to kick it up a notch (Bam!)…or rather, three storeys! Looks like the ISPWP judges liked it too, since I got a 8th place finish for it :)

Just before we left on our month-long trip to Africa I entered a few images into the quar­terly ISPWP contest. When we returned a few days ago I discovered that one from Claire and Nicholas’ wedding placed fourth in the “Bride Portrait” category!

What a nice welcome home :) And one of my personal faves too :)

Well, after 4 weeks in East Africa and 4 days in Cairo we’re back home again and digging our way out, both figu­ra­tively and literally. Two days ago we were in T-shirts and shorts, and now we’re shov­eling driveways. Sigh.

Keep an eye on this space for high­lights from our trip :)

In the mean time, if you’re looking for a wedding photog­rapher don’t hesitate to contact me…there are still dates available in 2011 and 2012 up for grabs.

That was the comment from one of the judges in the ISPWP winter photo contest, for this image:

Taken from Krista and Steve’s wedding, it is one of my favourite images ever :) It didn’t place as well as I thought it would…but then humour is so subjective, so I’m happy with how well it did.

From the same wedding, this image place 20th:

Earlier in the summer I went to Alaska to help my good friend Melissa shoot a wedding, and I convinced the security guard to let us out onto the catwalk of the Alyeska tramway pavilion at the top of the mountain:

Fourth place, not too shabby :)
