BY APPOINTMENT ONLY- Please call or email to book your session. I have studied everything: digital photography, film photography, lighting theory, classic and modern Photoshop post-processing techniques. I have spent years reading the boo
ks, taking tutorials, mentoring, researching industry tools and following the trends. I have worked with Lifetouch Studios, Canada’s industry leader in classic portrait photography, so I know my way around a three-point lighting set-up. And I know the “wrong” way to get a brilliant one. Strange and unusual props and accessories. Collaboration with exciting new designers and make-up artists. The ethereality of natural light. The unadulterated brashness of a boldly-placed light bulb. Creative digital processing without help guides or rule books. An artist’s eye for my subject and a poet’s ear for what they’re trying to say. I didn't learn how to get a brilliant shot in school, or between the pages of an operating manual. The way an actor knows their character. The way a musician knows the hum of perfect harmony. The way a DJ knows the vibe on the dance floor. I know “good” photography. And I know photographic brilliance. Past Subjects
