A photographer for nearly 25 years, my love of photography began when I was shown a book of impressionistic photography by celebrated Canadian photographers Freeman Patterson and André Gallant. Long an admirer of Impressionist painting, this photographic style served as the Red Pill at the top of the rabbit hole.
I joined The Saint Croix Courier, which is part of Advocate Media, as a reporter in September 2022. A sampling of stories for The Courier can be found on Muck Rack or on The Courier‘s website. Moving back to my home province of Ontario in September 2023, I now write for The Valley Gazette based in Barry’s Bay.
A listing of some of my previous work is below in the Photography/Writing Credits section.
My first book The Digital Zone System: Taking Control from Capture to Print was released by Rocky Nook in December 2012. My second book The Mobile Photographer: An Unofficial Guide to Using Android Phones, Tablets and Apps in a Photography Workflow was released in December 2014 and my third book The Anti-HDR HDR Photography Book was published in November 2016. My fourth book The Ultimate (OK, No Not Really) Guide to Mobile Photography was published in 2019.
