The best way to describe my photographic style is meditative, simple, free of judgement, open and unrestrained. The images that I capture come from my eye and not from my camera; the camera is simply a tool to record light levels. I am not interested in using my camera to create or capture something I cannot visually experience.
I always shoot alone. My state of mind is very calm and open. The only equipment I use to capture images is my camera and a lens. The type of lens is chosen before I start the shoot, so my mind is free to observe rather than be distracted by thoughts of which equipment to use. I spend a lot of time simply observing and waiting for a perception to arise. When I see something, I will spend time processing what I see so that I only capture the elements of the perception that ‘stopped me’.
Create Handmade Greeting Cards
Large prints are always impressive; however I also quite enjoy sharing my images of Sable Island in the form of greeting cards that I personally hand-assemble. You choose an image, and I will turn it into a beautiful card.
What People Are Saying
“I am a beginner painter and love painting horses. I came across your images and got caught up in your whole webpage. Your work beautifully illustrates the quotes you have selected from Chogyam Trungpa. The patterns, colours, images, convey that sense of centre. I really enjoyed them. Thanks.”
Mary-Anne
“Your photos really are fantastic. I really love them, as a first impression they have blown me away. Really looking forward to exploring more. I’m emerging from a photographic / creative plateau and I’m just rediscovering my eye, a simpler eye a that and I’ve be drawn time and time again to Miksang or Zen Photography.”
Michael
“Just wanted to send you a quick note. The print looked lovely when it arrived and it was definitely a hit as a Christmas present! My boyfriend was pleasantly surprised.”
Ashley
“Been a few years since we bought those large format photos from you but just wanted to let you know that we always get a ton of compliments on them. We have posted a shot of them on our facebook site and shout out to you. Still a focal point in our board room.”
Kevin Bellefontaine
“Your fine art publication is superb, and I am sure they will be pleased to receive it. I love your sensitive artistic style, with images that are meditative, dramatic and carry an emotional undercurrent. I wish you the very best of success with your beautiful book, and your other creative endeavours. Thank you for sharing your vision and appreciation of nature.”

Putting Price Tags on Things As They Are
“Using concepts is like putting price tags on things as they are. When we look at things without such barriers and blockages, we begin to be more inquisitive and clear. More critical judgment begins to take place.” Excerpted from: “Awakening Unfabricated Perception” in The Bodhisattva Path of Wisdom and Compassion, Volume Two of The Profound… Read more

Stay grateful
“The Zen monk Thich Nhat Hanh writes, I like to walk alone on country paths, rice plants and wild grasses on both sides, putting each foot down on the earth in mindfulness, knowing that I walk on the wondrous earth. In such moments, existence is a miraculous and mysterious reality. People usually consider walking on… Read more
