A life-long visual artist, I have been behind the lens, photographing people, places, events and special moments for more than 35 years.

My background includes extensive experience planning and supporting conferences, concerts, media events and marketing campaigns. I collaborate with artists, conference planners, advertising agencies and public relations specialists; backing events, communication and branding.

A professional communications specialist, marketer and published editorial writer, I have helped guide audience engagement and the execution of targeted marketing for; national corporations, provincial and municipal governments, tourism, agencies, and private sector businesses. More than a photographer, I’m a strategic partner with the knowledge, ability, and insight to amplify your brand experience. Venue photographer for the Mary Brown’s Centre and St. John’s Convention Centre, my professional experience capturing dynamic large scale events is unmatched within Newfoundland & Labrador. Official photographer for the nationally televised 2025 East Coast Music Awards, I lead a team that will capture performances of over 150 artists in multiple venues in a week long celebration of music, art and culture.

In addition to colour photography, I also work in fine art monochrome to produce emotive images that are more dramatic than colour counterparts. Beauty, sophistication and intrigue are found in deliberate artistic simplicity. This work highlights a fusion of cutting edge digital technology with legacy black and white techniques, celebrating the relationship between tradition and innovation in the arts.

A founding member of the Qalipu First Nation, I am deeply committed to cultural projects embracing equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility, strengthening our communities.

If you have an event to capture, or a project in mind, let’s start a conversation.
