MORE ABOUT ME

I’ve had a camera in my hand since my earliest childhood memories — my experience in telling stories started young!

From there, stories have been a part of my everyday life. Completing a Masters of Fine Arts in New York City led to over a decade of experience in publicity and communications within the performing arts – working everywhere from Broadway to The National Ballet of Canada. These experiences motivated me to build upon my lifelong passion for photography and my desire to celebrate love in all its forms.

I've been honoured to have my images used in a variety of marketing materials, digital communications, promotional and partnership campaigns - but, most recently, my favourite features include clients’ phone wallpapers, websites, social profiles, and framed prints hung in their homes.
