From an early age drawing 3-D objects in perspective was almost an obsession of mine and the subjects I drew were usually houses and buildings.
To develop my understanding of design and how to capture and translate what I saw into other media, I studied architecture at UCLA and later, interior design at Ryerson University in Toronto. When photography was introduced into the program it presented me with a broader creative path and awakened a true passion.
Over the years my photographic experience has been diverse. From studio work to a wide variety of locations and situations – from shooting a thousand feet down a mine shaft to hanging out the open door of a helicopter to photograph helicopters flying in formation. Today, as you can see, my work focuses on architecture – interiors, exteriors and design – as well as marketing and corporate assignments.
I travel frequently on assignment and enjoy overcoming the obstacles that location work presents, but I always look forward to returning to the pleasures of home.
