The Durban Club

A close family friend invited my father and to lunch at the Durban Club, the self declared final bastion of the British Empire. It’s an exclusive men’s club located in downtown Durban. The club has been operating since 1861, and has been in the current building since 1903. Arnold is my sister Joanne’s father-in-law. He [...]

Burning the Sugar Cane Fields

Before the farms harvest the sugar cane, it’s burned to remove wide grass blades, or trash from the cane, leaving the bamboo like cane behind. This saves a lot of work for the cane cutter, and clears the area of snakes and rodents. Tweet

Essenwood Flea Market

I spent Saturday at at the Essenwood flea Market in Durban.  Flea markets are a big South African tradition, where you can go to buy some authentic african crafts and beadwork, or hear someone play a township flute, or ‘Penny Whistle’. Tweet

Durban Beachfront

I’ve spent the last week getting my bearings in Durban.  I lost my wallet on the way in, and had to order a new VISA card from Montreal, which should be arriving soon.  I’ve also bought myself a little car, so I’m almost ready to hit the road. Yesterday, my Dad and I went for [...]

About Me

A top Whistler wedding photographer and photojournalist, I also photograph family portraits, engagement portraits, and do photography for corporate events throughout the Vancouver and Whistler regions.

In 1994, I moved to South Africa to photograph the transformation from Apartheid to free rule, and ended up spending more than two years photographing there. While I was the Durban photographer for the Mail & Guardian newspaper in 1996, it was awarded the British IPD Best International Newspaper Award, and the Missouri Medal for Distinguished Journalism.

I returned to Whistler in 1997 and began working as a wedding, portrait, and event photographer. Today I photograph over 40 weddings a year, from small elopement sized weddings to large weddings with over 200 guests.

As well as wedding photography, I’ve also been an instructor of photojournalism at the Focal Point Photo Resource in Vancouver, a judge for the annual BC & Yukon Newspaper Association photojournalism competition, and been a commissioning photographer for three independent newspapers.

I’m still active as a photojournalist, having been instrumental in the launch of the independent newspapers The Sea to Sky News, Garibaldi News, and Urban Pie Magazine.

In 2009, I returned to South Africa and spent three months photographing the country and it’s people.
