My Experience

I’ve been sharing smiles in Calgary as a professional photographer since 2005. Over the years, my work has taken me all around this great city and across Canada, where I’ve had the privilege of meeting families, couples and professionals from all walks of life.

I truly love my clients and deeply value their time, their stories, and their hard-earned dollars. Here is something that might surprise you: I genuinely hate having my own photo taken. Because of that, I can easily put myself in the shoes of anyone who feels uncomfortable in front of the camera. You’re not alone and you’re in good hands.
