my Story

Volunteer shooting for the Durham Mountain Biking Club Association in 2020

Shooting for Valle Mining over Port Dover in a tiny plane in 2025

I’ve run a successful commercial photography business for the past 35 years in toronto. my work has taken me all over the world. it has given me an extra appreciation for canada, and now lake of bays township.

This Lake of Bays Brewing Co. mural was created by me in 2020 by transforming my photos into painterly vector art.

Family

I’m happily married, have two successful sons and two great daughters-in-law, two creative stepchildren and one fantastic step son-in law. Luckily, both my parents are still with us, and while I didn’t follow my Dad into hockey, I hope to follow him into politics.

Hobbies

I love sports and play to win as loudly as I can and am known for my “THAT’S RIGHT, BABY!'“ I belong to the Lake of Bays Curling and Bocce Club. I volunteer happily to support the club and various other organizations in Baysville. I also play squash, cycle, snowboard, cross-country ski and love to kayak and swim in the Muskoka River.

Work

I’m a commercial photographer and mainly shoot food and drink, though I also enjoy shooting cars. I also am fortunate from time to time to shoot family portraits and the occasional wedding.

I’ve also sat on the Board of CAPIC - the Canadian Association of Photographers and Illustrators in Communications. I was President of the Toronto chapter for six years.
