Jenn & Chad’s Wedding
A wedding is a prime opportunity to expand my photography skills and at a family wedding in September, I seized the chance. The set includes my first venture into HDR, as well as a great shot of the newly married couple, just after they said “I do.”

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
When my newly minted wife and I decided to go to the Dominican Republic for our honeymoon, I welcomed the chance to take some shots of the white-sand, turquoise-water beaches. The stark contrast between the rusted out fridge and the pristine beach in the background is what makes the last shot of the set my favourite.

Puppy, Port Dover
Discovered on a random trip to Port Dover, Ontario, this puppy and his unique face was just asking to be photographed. Shot with the owner’s permission, the shots turned out much richer than expected.

Engagement
When we shot our engagement photos, I naturally brought my own camera with, to take some shots while our photographer setup. The collection I got turned out better than expected, with several of the ring and one of the location we shot at.
