I began taking high quality photos while on a road trip to the Yukon Territories in 2007. Since then I have honed my skills in many different fields to offer a wide variety of perspectives. I love to mountain bike and backcountry ski because of the possibility to access remote and breathtaking places. The scenery, the people, and the simplicity of the outdoors are what drive me to share these perspectives with the world. Live simple, think slow, and respect the power of nature.

I split my time between ski patrolling in the winter and pursuing creative opportunities in the summertime. With so many areas to explore near the Elk Valley there is always new perspectives to capture, so I always look forward to planning expeditions to new areas.

I have a very diverse range of skills that allow me to offer a wide variety of services. I specialize in real estate, sports, and landscape photography, and am a licensed drone pilot under Transport Canada's Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems for small aircraft. With this accreditation, I am able to offer stunning and unique aerial perspectives for any project.

Thank you for visiting, I look forward to working with you on your next project!
