i am a toronto based multi-disciplinary artist.
photography is my medium of choice.
i combine artistic expressions with new found loves: in fashion, paintings, travel, interesting people, literature, architecture...intriguing designs.
i like to leave my clients with breathtaking images but also with the fond memory of how my soft-spoken, calm and patient demeanor made them feel at ease before my camera.
within the dreamy romantic world as well as that of bold naturalism i like to keep both these styles separate as well as combining them in unique ways.
in my photography i am always evolving.
