Here are a few maternity photos I shot about a month ago of the lovely Shannon Harnett. I can’t wait to take photos of her new baby girl, Madalyn. 

Here are a few photos from Sophie and Olivier Lepage’s baptism on May 27, 2012. They are the sweetest and cutest twins I know.
Julien and Danielle are amazing parents! I am so happy I was able to make it out to Calgary to be part of this special day :)

Sports photos

Here are some screencaps of the photos I took for the winter edition of Fine Homes Magazine.

After a shoot for FineHomes Magazine I stopped at a farm to shoot these cute horses and nearly got attacked by a savage German Shepherd guard dog. Thank God I was only 5 feet from my car.

Death by icicle.

I had five minutes to take a photo of Danny Huston, the star of his new film “Playoff”, after a press conference during the Montreal World Film Festival. I didn’t have time to research him before hand, so I assumed he was just your average up-and-comer, but turns out he has played a lot of amazing roles during his career thus far.


To name a few, he played Richard the Lionheart in Robin Hood, Poseidon in Clash of the Titans, Jack Bennett in Edge of Darkness, Colonel William Stryker in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the lead vampire in 30 Days of Night, Joseph II in Marie Antoinette, Jack Frye in The Aviator, Orson Welles in Fade To Black, Sandy Woodrow in The Constant Gardener, Michael in 21 Grams and Arthur Burns in The Proposition.


He was very suave, friendly, and reminded me of Jack Nicholson un petit peu.
I think I did a pretty good job considering the lighting was horrible so I had to use on-camera flash and only had time to snap seven frames.

Postmedia Publications

Thanks to PressDisplay I found my photos published in a variety of Postmedia papers other than the Montreal Gazette and the StarPhoenix.

“The Calgary Herald, National Post, Vancouver Sun, Victoria’s Times Colonist, Edmonton Journal, Windsor Star, Ottawa Citizen and the Winnipeg Free Press! Woot!”
