Hello and welcome to my page, I am a Visual Artist, Photo/Film Artist
I have over 40 years enjoying photography as a passionate hobby and after retiring from corporate life in 2013 I have been able to devote more of my time to the art and the craft of creating impactful images. I shoot landscapes using a variety of techniques including long exposures, exposure blending, focus stacking, night photography and panaromas. In recent years I have expanded my skillset to portrait work using both natural light and modified studio strobe lights. I have only recently taken a more active role in promoting myself and my work. I had very successful exhibits in the 2021 and 2022 Eastside Culture Crawls and was featured in their 2021 artist catalogue.. As part of the BolderArtists group I had 10 images included in a 2022 exhibition at the Anvil Community Gallery in New West. I also had an image selected for the group exhibition at the Harmony Arts Festival and received a first place award in the panaroma category for an image entered in the International Photography Awards and the ND magazine awards.

Artist Statement
I am a passionate photographer who enjoys shooting a wide variety of subjects. I particularly enjoy combining travel and photography and the opportunity it presents to capture images of different landscapes, architecture and cultures I try to create an element of drama in my images and am always looking out for interesting and dramatic skies. I often shoot long exposures to add a smooth, silky look to water and clouds. My favourite time of day to shoot is the blue hour, the time after the sun has set and before the darkness of the night sky. I never tire of shooting our beautiful Vancouver skyline and whenever I am in another city I will research locations that I can get to for a blue hour shoot.
