My first official gig came at 19, photographing my sister’s wedding, followed by my cousin’s wedding the next year. By the time I was 23, I had my own photography studio and photo lab. I dove headfirst into the business, eager to absorb as much knowledge as I could. This was around the time wedding photojournalism was starting to gain traction, and I was particularly inspired by Denis Reggie’s work in the U.S. I gravitated towards that style, and it became a cornerstone of my photography throughout the mid to late 80s,through to now .

 

Over the past 38 years, wedding photography has been my main focus, taking me on an incredible global journey photographing over 1000 Weddings world wide . I've had the opportunity to work in 13 countries, including Norway, Japan, Australia, France, Italy,Cuba, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Mexico ,San Marino, Bahamas the united States and all across Canada
