The passion for photography still continues to grow after 45 years. I bought my first enlarger when my daughter was born in 1978. Back then, night was the best dark room. My passion for photography grew in the small bathrooms with small trays and a tiny enlarger, watching the miracle reveal itself in the developer. My photos are diverse and spans from inanimate objects to anything in a garden to beautifully lit people. However the style I relish, is my work in digital layering. My 1993 Giclée prints from the China Exhibit,  look like the digital prints of 2023.  Back then I produced the layers by printing layers of large format negatives. Even then I was seeing stories within stories within stories.

Shooting Professional theater, weddings and corporate portraits was not fulfilling enough and I looked to grow further. At the age of 40, I entered and completed a Degree program in Professional Photography at Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara, California.

As a professional photographer,  life evolved from corporate photography into Business Marketing. Somehow, photography stayed an indispensable element of building websites, newspaper ads, promoting businesses with posters, staff portraits, marketing materials.

Each project still entailed an eye for a worthy shot that represented just the right message.

After over 30 years of marketing I have returned to my original passion, producing large format digital imagery.  My latest 29 foot mural for Technical Safety of BC echoes the abstract style I developed back in 1993.

I am committed to speak through my photos,  art with a message. If I could produce photos that evoke emotions,
remind us of good times, arouse thought, stimulate what’s GOOD, then I would be happy.
