BIOGRAPHY
My
background in professional photography is in the field of photojournalism. For
close to a decade
(1992 to 2001),
I was employed as a photojournalist in my hometown at The
Burlington Post Newspaper (Metroland Media Group/Torstar Corporation),
and contributed to an array of sister and cousin newspapers including:
The Oakville Beaver, Mississauga News, Milton Canadian Champion, Flamborough
Post, and Georgetown Independent. In addition to this extensive
list, I regularly freelanced for Abbey Oaks News, Score Golf and
Cover Story magazines, and even made an
appearance in MacLeans on a special assignment that went national.
The
photojournalist's role is one of constant adaptation. Further to working as a press photographer for the
above mentioned media publications, my over 15 year career to date has involved countless
jobs in many genres of photography such as: advertising, fashion, studio
work and
portraits,
commercial, corporate, fine art, real estate, food and products, families
and
pets - the list is really endless. Today
presents an opportunity to combine my many years of professional working experience
with an even greater freedom
to express creativity in my work.
I continually strive to go above and beyond, which
has surpassed client's wishes
in the process, and generated an
overwhelming response.
To date, I
have photographed over 350 weddings. After expanding into wedding
photojournalism in 1997 with a prominent wedding studio, and
photographing almost 100 weddings in the two years there, I began
accepting clients under my own name. This enables me to fully apply
my true working experiences as a photojournalist to
wedding days.
My professional
affiliations include The NPPA (National Press Photographers
Association), Better Business Bureau (Accredited) of South Central Ontario, and
Canon’s Pro Services Membership. I am extremely grateful to all of
those who have helped me achieve success in my profession, and I have
accepted a role as mentor to students of today, so as to pass along
what I have learned. A special thank you must as well go out to
every individual, client, and company who bestows their trust upon me.
“Choose
a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your
life.”
―Confucius
