Profile

I have been a photographer ever since I got my hands on my dad’s camera in the 50’s. My father allowed me to turn our furnace room into a B&W darkroom and, with that, I was in business.

My role as a photographer for high school started my interest in photojournalism. My boredom with counselling psychology in the 1980’s drove me to find an, albeit part-time, career in photojournalism for a variety of Vancouver, BC publications.

My introduction to workplace, trauma psychology perked my intersest in applied psychology again distracting me from photography until 2006.

With my return to photography, my focus again is photojournalism as well as strong interest in art photography (this web page).

Recently I have been focusing on High Dynamic Range photography – the Ansel Adams technique of digital photography.

Currently my work is hanging and for sale in the following locations:
