I approach portraiture as an opportunity to emphasize fascinating people through light, emotion and storytelling. I pride myself on creating a lively and exciting atmosphere for my subjects, team and clients. I believe our finest work is achieved when our cast is fully engaged and having just enough fun to let their guard down. Production includes some of the best producers in Toronto as well as top tier wardrobe, makeup, casting & location services.
The Applied Arts Photography Annual awards for portraiture and a series on big Hawaiian surf. (2009, 2012, 2017).
Awarded Gold at the 2020 Canadian Online Publishing Awards for Photo Journalism w York University Magazine.
