Squamish, BC

I live in Squamish. Architects, builders, and interior designers book me from here. The work runs across the Sea to Sky, the Sunshine Coast, Vancouver, the Fraser Valley, and the Okanagan. Between projects I climb, and I spend time in the forest and on the rock. That time outside is why the landscape stays in the frame with the building.

Clarity, accuracy, and intention over spectacle. That is the standard I hold. A photograph should leave the design legible: where the building sits, why a room opens as it does, which material was chosen, and which view has to read.

My work is to make those pictures for the people who designed and built the project, and to keep working with the firm after that day. The business of a firm interests me as much as the building. I like growth-minded clients, people building the firm on purpose, who want the photographs to be part of how it grows.

The life I am building is a small practice in Squamish, close to the mountains, with a few firms I stay with for years. I still want to be the one who makes the pictures.

Working with me is direct. I ask for the story of the project, the rooms that matter, and the drawings, then I send a note before the day. On site I move quietly. I edit every frame myself, so the materials read as they read in the room. I walk the site, and I write back. The gallery typically follows within 5 to 10 business days.
