After university I photographed golf for TV, resulting in a life long aversion to anything involving small white balls. I love women and buildings, however, so I became a commercial photographer specializing in fashion and architecture. Since those halcyon days I've taught creative photography, photojournalism and scientific photography at the University of Victoria.

Italy and England, the landscape from the Arctic to the tropics, graffiti, the image as metaphor and the nude are areas of ongoing work, along with my Atget re-photographic project in Paris.

Following many years of Leicas, Nikons, Contaxes and Hasselblads and too many hours in the darkroom, I've become a digital convert and work with a Nikon D200, a film scanner, a flatbed scanner and Photoshop CS4 with plugins including Eye Candy and Filter Forge. The 'blads were eventually sold to buy a sail boat, from which I never looked back, though I've found too many women don't like being frightened and cold and that's a lot of what sailing around here is about!

Please have a look at my own website at [link] and my page at Model Mayhem. If you're interested in modeling please drop me a line. I'm always interested in working with some one new and adventurous so please don't be shy.

For biographic info see Who's Who in American Art and the Macmillan Biographical Encyclopedia of Photographic Artists and Innovators.

If you're interested in technical things you might be interested in my lab website at [link] If you cook you might find my sauces page at [link] useful.

Thanks for visiting and I hope you enjoyed looking at some of my work.
