✅ A New Year… another goal off my list.
It’s been more than 12 years since I last published my own photography website. Back then it was to show contest submissions, commissioned projects and realtors my MLS real estate images.
Over the past few months, I’ve been building a new site—this time as a personal space to share my art. I’ll be adding new images every month and would love to hear your feedback and which images you enjoy the most!

Shot this image along a small stream near my home. I was inspired by the golden light, gentle current and fall color...

For this image, I experimented with macro photography on delicate 1" dandelion seed heads using a 105mm macro lens with extension tubes. After misting them with water, I captured 15 frames for focus stacking and merged them in Photoshop. The vibrant background came from the colors of a magazine cover.

The weekly theme was “In the Style Of”, where we were challenged to create an image inspired by a photographer whose work we admire. I chose Tony Sweet, known for his ethereal, dreamlike imagery—a style that’s resonated with me ever since I attended one of his workshops back in 2005.

This slow shutter photo, taken just outside of Peachland is my interpretation of his aesthetic.
I’ve titled it Golden Currents.

My cow photo was featured on the 52 Frames Instagram page for the theme ‘Using the Wrong Lens.’
I intentionally shot it with a Fisheye 8-15 mm lens which is definitely not your typical choice for a portrait. My camera was only a foot away from her nose which exaggerated her features and highlighted all the little details in her face.

Out of 2,618 photos this week on 52 Frames, they selected my images for Top 52 Picks.

The category was Triangular Composition. Last year, for the same category, I was selected #3. I must like triangles...
