The recent months have proved to be quite exciting as new projects now have to navigate around certain travel restrictions. Recent projects include photographing the new Porsche Taycan Turbo and 911 Carrera 4S. The challenge was the tight timeline of shooting two vehicles in a period of 48 hours with only one support crew and as well as being limited to a small area to shoot due to travel restrictions. Another exciting project was the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Roadster Xago edition.

"This has been a surprisingly busy year. I’ve been photographing architecture and interiors professionally since 2006, working with designers and builders on a vast number of residential, corporate and other development projects. But what has kept me busy lately is photographing Tiny Home trailers, which requires a unique set of tactics and considerations. 

I love bringing attention to good design, and these trailers have been amazing examples of fitting so many beautiful elements cleverly into a small space. In my commercial work, my style is focused on a natural, ambient light presentation, which I love for its purity, but I also appreciate being able to push things in creative directions when I can. 

I've also had opportunities lately to shoot large commercial spaces. I hope to eventually spend more time documenting projects that not only prioritise sustainable building design but also incorporate alternative and repurposed materials, which I always love to see."

In my commercial work, my style is focused on a natural, ambient light presentation, which I love for its purity, but I also appreciate being able to push things in creative directions when I can. In my personal work, one of the things I am drawn to is photographing abandoned places, which combines my architectural photography with my expressionist sensibilities. During the pandemic down-time, I completed a series of photos of an abandoned Hawaiian resort being reclaimed by the jungle, with the whole series posted on my fine art website."

"We just finished a recent project for RM Sothebys featuring a very yellow Ford GT. It was a fun little project especially playing around with a gorgeous spring sunset that just complements the colour of the Ford GT itself.

This project went on despite the whole coronavirus situation and we made sure to follow the protocols for sanitation, distancing and proper guidelines as laid out by Canada’s health ministry. We’re open for further projects here in Canada moving beyond the situation as we navigate this strange new world. It’s time to think of the next steps in the advertising and marketing fields."
