Welcome

Welcome to my photoblog. I try to keep it updated daily with a new photo from either my personal or professional life. It is not intended to be taken as my professional portfolio (please visit the main website for that), but instead it is more of an informal and fun way for me to share some of my personality and creativity with you. Many of the photos on my blog are available for purchase as fine art prints, please visit the main website and/or contact me if you are interested. Enjoy!

I took a little trip up to Petawawa to shoot Malorie and Andrew's engagement session. We had a blast shooting at a few locations by the waterfront, which made for some amazing backdrops for the even more spectacular couple. Here are just a few of the shots we got. Enjoy!

Canada Day 2010 Fireworks

  
We had perfect weather in the nations capital for Canada Day today, which made the fireworks all the more enjoyable! With hundreds of thousands of people (including the Queen) in Ottawa this year waiting for the explosive display of pyrotechnics, we were not disappointed! Below is a few of the shots I got from the excellent fireworks. Enjoy!
