Some days you want to pinch yourself, other days you wonder ‘why’? It's that kind of a profession.

As a photographer, I've recorded history, influenced public opinion and been an eyewitness to life and death. Working as a photojournalist is a privilege that comes with a great responsibility, to be accurate and honest to both the people you are reporting on and those you are reporting to.

I'm an accomplished, award-winning photojournalist with 22 years of experience working around the world. In Canada, I've been a staff photographer for the Globe and Mail, the South China Morning Post, Asia Times, the Eastern Express and the National Post and have freelanced for AFP, AP, Reuters and the Canadian Press.

Currently I live and work in Vancouver as the Globe and Mail's West Coast based Visual Journalist.
