Covers & Collages

 

Like most photographers, I get a rush of excitement when my photos appear on a magazine's cover.  And I've been blessed to partner with art director Bob Hashioka in the creation of several photo collages for print and online publications.

Published Writing

There are few things more gratifying than writing and publishing a feature length story after conducting research and relevant interviews with subject matter experts.

It has been a thrill to see my work published in several respected publications across the horse racing industry and to be voted one of three finalists for Canada’s 2017 Sovereign Award.

Advertising

 

I have been privileged to have thoroughbred breeding and retirement farms use my photographs in their magazine and online advertisements. These are a few of my favorites.

Exhibits & Books

 

It is always gratifying when somebody reaches out to ask permission to use my work for exhibits, books, promotional brochures and varied forms of artwork.
