I am a photographer with over 20 years of experience in the industry. I love creating and capturing stories in my photographs, especially when working with a client to align with their brand narrative. Whether using the available light and environments or building them from scratch, I craft scenes and work them until all the best things have been told through the images. I work fast and hard, and have a lot of fun doing it.
I have shot and art directed literally thousands of models in over 600 photo shoots including corporate business scenes, family lifestyle, studio portraiture, small business (of every kind), heavy industry, ice climbing and epic hikes, fake parties with 75 strangers who all left as friends, and so many other things in between. My production experience includes casting, scouting, styling, building props and sets, and end-to-end production services. But while I can work well on my own, my favourite shoots always happen in collaboration with others.
I am based in Calgary, Canada, but shoot all over the world. If I'm not behind a camera, you can find me hiking, climbing, or skiing in the mountains or in the woodshop making lamps and knife blocks or whatever else inspires me. I'm a father of three teens and a husband and have one dangerously adorable dog – she's a good girl.*
