Wat vind je het leukst aan je werk?

Photographing people helps me use my storytelling skills — every person, every face, is unique, and part of me intensely desires to call forth expressions from each subject so that viewers might glean something authentic about the person. Fair warning: I tend to get voluble when I see things in my viewfinder. I've been told on more than one occasion that my joy is contagious.

Welke soorten shoots heb je gedaan en hoe heb je ze speciaal gemaakt?

I've done a mix of family portraits, weddings, model tests, headshots, and the (very) occasional product shoot. I find topics of mutual interest with my subjects so we can have a genuine conversation and they leave the shoot feeling they've made a new friend. I feel ecstatic when they leave glowing reviews of the experience on Facebook and Instagram.

Prijzen, onderscheidingen en erkenningen ontvangen

As part of the Help-Portrait Calgary team, received the 2019 Kindness Award from the Calgary Drop-In and Rehabilitation Centre for six years taking professional portraits of homeless people after they've been pampered by hairstylists and makeup artists.
