Bio

I have been interested in photography for 25 years, and have spent the last ten working as a professional photographer and photography instructor. I initially specialized in sports action and dance photography and worked in those two genres for several years. I've also provided editorial services for media and government. Currently, my efforts are concentrated in landscape photography. Several of my fine art prints have been accepted into juried exhibitions. I am the recipient of both an arts residency and an arts grant.

Residency Project

My instruction emphasizes an introduction to the fundamentals of photography – exposure and its components, important camera controls, and compositional basics. The intention is to provide students with a solid foundation from which they can develop their own unique style and vision in a genre of their choosing. Students will be given an opportunity to practice their new skills on their own and seek constructive criticism and feedback. Subject to time and material costs, the students may be given an opportunity to display some of their work in either a physical or virtual exhibition.

Teaching Experience

I regularly teach continuing education (Introduction to Photography) via NBCC-Moncton and the Town of Sackville Department of Parks and Recreation. I also offer photography courses, workshops, and private lessons independently. I have prior experience in adult and post-secondary education via term contracts with NBCC Moncton in the Civil Engineering Technology program.
