Hello all!!! Some exciting news — I’ve got a photo up in a gallery! This is the first time I’ve had a photo piece of mine properly displayed in a gallery, so I’m fairly excited about it. It’s a community gallery in a museum, so not huge, but it’s still exciting. Let me tell you […]
Hello all! A lot has happened in the last few months, and I find myself doing freelance work for a variety of arts groups. One of those is the Schooner Cove Singers, a new choir in the Parksville/Qualicum Beach area that is unique for its interest in choir music that includes the organ, and their […]
What’s new, you ask? A few things. A few things… I’ve worked as a newspaper reporter for almost seven years now, and it turns out that seven might be enough for me. Time to go in a new direction. So I’ve embarked on an adventure of creativity and exploration. Need some help writing website copy […]
So, if you don’t know already … I’ve moved! Gone or the cold, snowy, blustery days of Ottawa (that’s how it is for half the year, anyway. Plus, it’s basically black and white for that period, with some brown of bare branches and maybe some blue sky. Not to be hating, but it gets old), […]
Hello everyone:) In case you didn’t know, I now have a cat. His name is Maurice, or Moe for short. Rhymes with ‘No,’ which we tend to say a lot. But really, he’s a wonderful and affectionate cat, not unlike many pets. And like many pet owners, my wife and I love taking photos of […]

Hello everyone, This time I’m showing some photos I’ve had for a few weeks now. It’s been pretty hectic, what with the municipal elections and the shootings at the National War Memorial and Parliament. A busy time for a local journo, definitely. But here are some shots I took during my trip to Toronto for […]
Hi everyone, I have something … a little different for you this week. I’m becoming more and more interested in the technique of light painting (using flashlights and other light-emitting devices to make effects in a photo), and I was sitting around, thinking about what I could with the devices I have on hand without […]
Hello everyone! Boy, has it been a long while! I have to say, I’ve been in a bit of a funk the past month when it comes to getting off my butt and taking photos for pleasure. But, a camping trip to Algonquin Park last week was just what I needed to finally pull off […]
Hello all! Here are some night photos! As some of you know, warm nights are very possibly my favourite time to take photos. Walking around Ottawa is really fun when you are looking for unique angles, lighting and a subject. Those are the main things I look for. I’ve found it’s not enough to find […]
