As a Vancouver portrait and fine art photographer I feel my job is to connect with people, capture authentic moments and tell stories through my images.

My style is punchy with a flair for the cinematic and I use strobes and flashes to get the drama in my pictures. Natural light can be some of the most beautiful, but it is more often than not coming from the wrong direction,  it can be high contrast with harsh shadows, or it could be overcast and dull.  The artificial light also gives adds  more pop to colours and freezes motion better for sharper shots.
