My passion is portrait photography.
I use paid models for some of my portrait photography, but also friends, neighbours and family.
I am extremely fortunate to have built up a strong, fruitful, creative and collaborative relationship with one model, Kendra Cox, as can be seen by the many portraits of her shown here. I have photographed models in Cuba, some of whose images are featured here. Additionally, Keyanna Smith, a Kamloops model, has sat for me as have my neighbours Rob Tourand and Cheryl Tourand and friends Sharon Jensen, Gloria Melnychuk and Doerte Pavlik. And finally there are grandchildren and even great-grandchildren.
