Reflection Pools in Black and White
Limited Edition Print 3 of 11 available now
This photo is the first of my photographic career to be shown publicly and sold as a limited edition. It was taken in Tobermory, Ontario on October 13th, 2018 while I waited on a private beach for a colourful sunset. Instead these moody clouds spoke to me above the detail of an ages worn, rocky landscape. I captured the beauty within the emotion conveyed through the scenery that will never be viewed the same way again. This area will flood and the textured rock is not visible to the eye. I decided to print this landscape in black and white to emphasize the variety of patterns nature placed together.

Escape From the City
Limited Edition Print 3 of 30 available now
12" x 18" $350 cdn
The best part about city life is having an escape from city life. Here in Port Dalhousie, the marina is located in the downtown area and it's easy to head to your boat for a weekend getaway. The great lakes area in southern Ontario is filled with tiny port cities just like this one with water access points close at hand.

Cliffside at Georgian Bay
Limited Edition 3 of 30
16" x 20" $375 cdn
Climbing up rock walls with my camera in hand isn't ideal but it's what I needed to do to get the shot. As a photographer, I spend a great deal of time seeking out new, visually appealing venues and it's hard to find a fresh vantage point in a place as busy as The Grotto at Bruce Peninsula Provincial Park.

On the Edge in Monochrome
Limited Edition 3 of 30
16" x 20" $375 cdn
Standing on the edge of the cliff with this majestic tree gave me shivers up my spine. I glanced over the side and it's a long way down through thick Canadian brush. I couldn't see the bottom. What was chilling for me, is everyday life for the inhabitants of this forest. Morningstar Mill, Ontario

On the Brink
Limited Edition 2 of 30
8" x 12" $135 cdn
12" x 18" $185 cdn
It's six o'clock in the morning and I stood next to brink. I felt the thunderous roar of the falls from deep in my bones as the sun pierced through the mist. I took this shot. The flow of this water influences the web of life, it's the electricity to power our houses and has long been a source of inspiration for onlookers.

The Calm
first edition
It takes guts to walk out onto an Algonquin trail in the middle of thunderstorm and tornado warnings. But I lived outside for months and hike all the time. I've slept outside in a tent with wind so frightening the trees bent in half to touch the ground. I could tell that wherever this storm was going to land, it wouldn't be the brunt of it here.
Her Majesty
first edition
Canada's oldest sugar maple sits on a small conservation area in the middle of farmland. The Comfort Maple is estimated to have lived as long as five centuries. Over time it's been hit by lightning at least once and the blackened bark was repaired using cement, wire and brick. Here I flattened the colour a bit in post to help the foliage stand out better.
Terraced Cliffside Cascade
first edition
The water weaves in and out of this rocky shore as I carefully position myself at the best angle for a photo. This landscape can be hard and unforgiving, but the white cedar trees root here and some were recently dated to be as old as two thousand years. Taken in October, in Bruce Peninsula National Park.
