Behind The Lens
Hello,
Photography has been a passion of mine for at least half of my life.
I started off capturing details in things often overlooked in the macro world, such as an insect the size of a mustard seed sitting on the tip of a leaf, or a city of towering fungi resembling an alien world. Attempting to capture the elusive feeling of overlooking expansive landscapes, standing at the foot of behemoth mountains, and just enjoying the beauty of the world.
Since then, I have also gained professional experience in product photography, ranging from meticulously planned studio photos to candid lifestyle shoots in a variety of locations and events.
I continue to sharpen my skills as a photographer every day, and I’m excited for new challenges and opportunities that may come my way.

Nikon D850 Camera Body
I’ve been using this for about 7 years and has been the gold standard in professional photography for nearly a decade.Nikkor 28-300mm Lens
My go-to lens for most events and shoots that are fast paced and have a lot going on. This lets me go from capturing a wide open space to an up-close portrait in seconds.Tamron 90mm Lens
Perfect for portraits and product photography. It’s super sharp and can capture tiny details up close that are usually invisible to the naked eye.Nikkor 14-24mm Lens
Super wide-angle. Can get an entire building, the ground, and the sky in one shot. Also great for capturing the scale of full rooms with virtually no distortion.Dual Memory Cards
I run two ultra-fast memory cards in tandem. So photos are constantly backed-up during the shoot. I’ve never lost a photo before, and this extra step ensures it stays that way.x4 Batteries
Usually, a full day of shooting takes around 2 batteries. Having 4 guarantees uninterrupted shooting in almost any situation.Studio Lighting
I have 3 bright colour-changing LED panels with stands, as well as 10ft black and white cloth backdrops.Off-Road Tacoma
I can get to just about any location if your shoot requires a remote location with some unconventional terrain. -
I can go pretty much anywhere. Most photoshoots happen at a location of the clients choosing, such as a community event, venue, business, home, park, etc. My off-road vehicle also enables me to get to hard-to-reach remote locations.
My Own Property
I have about 160 acres of open long-grass fields and birch forest that can be used for shoots upon request. -
If weather becomes an issue for whatever reason, such as being unsafe, or just not suitable for the “look” we want, we will reschedule to the next available time at no extra cost.
