About me
Born as a small town New Brunswicker, my parents handed me a camera to document Grade 1.  Boy was that a mistake tongue  (I've been shooting ever since.)

I'm currently finishing off my philosophy degree at Queen's University and pursue my photographic interests part time.  My knowledge and professional experience extends into both digital and film mediums in order to be adept in shooting many different styles ie. fine art, fashion, photojournalism, etc.  This professional experience extends 5+ years.  I have professional equipment to allow me to shoot on site or in my studio.

If you have a concept you're interested in shooting or need a photographer, you can private message me here on Model Mayhem.

Taken from Matthew Trotter
"No amount of photoshop can turn a shitty picture into a good one."

The trouble with photographing beautiful women is that you never get into the dark room until after they've gone.  - Yousuf Karsh

If a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it's as though I've neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up.  - Robert Mapplethorpe

Any photographer who says he's not a voyeur is either stupid or a liar. - Helmut Newton

The progress of an artist is a continual self-sacrifice, a continual extinction of personality.  - T S Eliot

To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.  - Henri Cartier-Bresson

Photography appears to be an easy activity; in fact it is a varied and ambiguous process in which the only common denominator among its practitioners is in the instrument. - Henri Cartier-Bresson

Photography has always reminded me of the second child.. trying to prove itself. The fact that it wasn’t really considered an art.. that it was considered a craft.. has trapped almost every serious photographer.  - Richard Avedon

All photographs are accurate. None of them is the truth. - Richard Avedon

I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn't photograph them. - Diane Arbus

You don't take a photograph, you make it. - Ansel Adams
