I am a self taught photographer based out of Thunder Bay, Ontario Canada.
I specialize in outdoor nature and landscape photography and have begun to dabble in the fine medium of portraiture both human and animal.

'The limitations of photography are in yourself, for what we see is only what we are.' - Ernst Haas

'It’s not so much about mastering a particular technique or camera function or technical application. It’s more so about challenging and growing my way of ‘seeing.’

'Buying a Nikon doesn't make you a photographer. It makes you a Nikon owner'. ~Author Unknown

'There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.' ~Ansel Adams

'The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking.' - Brooks Atkinson

'The camera doesn't make a bit of difference. All of them can record what you are seeing. But, you have to SEE.' - Ernst Haas
