When I say I want to photograph someone,
what it really means is that I’d like to know them.

I offer a limited number of portraiture sessions for women, mostly monochrome when I am available.
(Individuals / Artists / Individual plus-one / Personal life work “Phenomenal Women”)
All sessions will take place in the Vancouver area (an extra fee may apply for outside of Vancouver)
Starting at 9 am (or earlier in Summer) on Tuesdays or Saturdays.
If you’re camera-shy and are interested in participating in
the “Phenomenal Women” project – Please contact me.
My thoughts on the portraiture session
If you are looking for a photo of your “ideal” self, the one that fits what people think a woman
or beauty should look like, I may not be your photographer.
I don’t do much retouching, as I don’t seek perfection. I adore freckles, wrinkles, and flaws
– things that make you different and special. And I do seek raw beauty, the truth, the real you.
A photo session is like having a conversation, and you’ll forget that the lens is there
– that’s the moment we’re connected, and it’s precious.
I’m not asking you to smile. I’m not asking you to pose.
All I need is to know you, so please – Be free to be you.
You tell me your story – I’ll show you how I see.
