I think storytelling is really important in fashion photography, and it was lovely to see model and stylist Margo had the same vision in mind. We started the session at her house on a rainy november day, feeling rather stuck when we planned an outdoor photoshoot on the beach. Using creative composition and shooting techniques, […]
One of my favourite headshot clients, PBMG, needed some branding images done for their website. We took these images on-location at their downtown office in the Marine Building.

This winter I photographed some images at Avison Young Vancouver office. This is one of my favourite offices to photograph, everyone is very courteous and organized and the sessions are very short. For this image I channeled a mad men theme, and wanted to do something a little different from the average group shot. I digitally altered the floor to appear glasslike, and reflected the subjects back in it to add depth and dimension.
