About me

I fell in love with photography the first time I picked up a camera at age ten, and I've been traveling the world with my camera ever since. My magazine work tends to specialize in travel and outdoor recreation. Destinations have included Central America, Europe, and Asia. But my favourite place to shoot is my home for twenty years - the West Coast of Canada.

Most recently I returned from Sydney, Australia, where I was working for several years. During that time I began photographing weddings, first for friends, and then by word-of-mouth. Before I knew it, it was nearly a second job for me. What I love about shooting a wedding is that, no matter where I point my lens, something beautiful and meaningful is happening.

Upon returning to my home in Vancouver I decided to devote more time to wedding photography. A Natural Eye Wedding Photography is the fulfillment of that dream.
