I am a retired high school science teacher and am now pursuing a new
career as a professional photographer. I was introduced to photography
by my late father, "helping" him in the darkroom from about age 10, and
encouraged by him to completely make my own black and white photographs at
about the same age.
Since leaving teaching in 1998, I have traveled, opened up a business in photography,
graduated from Humber College with a Certificate in Photographic Techniques
(with honours), traveled some more, and enjoyed doing it all.
My photographs have been published in a few magazines, and in "On Safari" a
book to depict all aspects of the modern Safari in Eastern and Southern Africa.
142 photographers took part in this venture, throughout 2004. The companion
web site is at [

Some photographs have won ribbons at the Toronto Camera Club, and acceptances
in shows by the Photographic Society of America, the Greater Toronoto Council of
Camera Clubs and the Lindsay Gallery. They have been sold at Contact, the Lindsay
Gallery and the Station Gallery of Fenelon Falls.
I am prepared to photograph many things, from the very small to quite
large. My digital conversion is now complete, and all new work is done in with
professional digital SLR cameras, although I still have film cameras and film
in stock, and still love to use them.
All work, ditial photography, scanning of slides and negatives, and prints, and all
photoshop work is done by me. Output can be still images for electronic viewing,
digital files for composing printed matter, or quality digital prints.
I enjoy the challenge of photographing something that may not be so
easy to do, and generally enjoy making sharp, clear, and beautiful
images.
