I am a photographer and website developer based in Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island. My time is split between photography, website development, graphic design and  engineering consulting. My photographic specialties are commercial and residential photography.

My strengths are the ability to listen acutely, work efficiently and execute on a plan. I have an ability to work with diverse groups and provide a coherent creative direction.

My commercial clients have included: Nextwave Marine Systems, Oceanside Division of Family Practice, BC Hydro, Re/Max First Realty, Royal LePage, and many businesses & associations in the Oceanside region of Vancouver Island including: Smithford's, Animal Magic, The Captain's Inn, Second Avenue Clearance, Beachcreek Farms and the Qualicum Beach Downtown Business Association. 

In my spare time I like to pursue personal photographic projects; many of which you can see here on my website. My personal work has been published in magazines and newspapers across Canada and the US. My work is represented by Arts & Architecture in Ottawa, Canada and by the Salish Sea Market in Bowser on Vancouver Island. Many pieces from my portfolio are held by private collectors throughout North America. In 2008 my fine art photography was recognized by PhotoLife Magazine when I was named one of Canada’s Emerging Photographers.

I have been married to the adorable Cindy for 35+ years and we are rarely seen without our dear puppy Chelsea, who’s been taking us for walks for more than 15 years.
