This is Florence Hannay who recently received a Governor General`s award for her lifelong work as a volunteer. She had not been in a portrait studio for decades and I was honored that
she chose my studio to immortalize her for the occasion.
This is my recent portrait of General Lewis MacKenzie who led our forces in the Peacekeeping Mission in Bosnia.
Fascinating conversations are frequently part of my week…but chatting with General Mackenzie had to be the highlight of last week. I really should write that much threatened book…oh well, one day.

We create a lot of buzz for businesses in Ottawa. This was shot for one of the rising Real Estate stars, Chris Lacharity and his team. I went a bit beyond the call of duty on this one…and they seem to have liked it as it`s popping up in ads, the web and billboards around town. Cool images sell things….period.
We do a lot of product photography from food and technology to cosmetics. This shot ran in a range of women`s mags. Don`t try doing this much Photoshop at home kids…

I wanted to create something a bit different for Boom 99.7 We do quite a few shoots for local radio and television promos and it is always a fun type of personality to work with. Brent and Michelle had definite ideas on how they should look and the teamwork
between them and my studio created this image that was used in Status Magazine.

When I say tough…I mean, tough to create something a bit different than the standard headshot. You were fine…Though I would hold off on modelling for a bit…lol
