About// let me tell you about myself

What I do and why i do it

I have grown, lived, and documented the city of Edmonton, Canada all my life. I've completed three years of schooling within the fields of design and photography at MacEwan University and am currently working as a freelance photographer. As of right now I am available for local, national, and international assignments. I capture the essence of musicians, performers and bands through photography. Be it through their personality in musician portraits or through the raw energy of a live show. I've always been able to pick out that moments of time where something great happens, during that split second where everything lines up. Be it that half second when the singer of a band swings their microphone around the stage or the excitement when a guitar pick is caught by an audience member. These are the moments I capture.

Denver Foran

Denver Foran

A little while ago I was contacted to do something a little bit out of the norm for myself. Sure I have shot photos of bands like Metallica, Epica, and Anthrax over the past six months; I have done some product work and even space beats that spew blood (GWAR). However when [...]

GWAR!!!

GWAR!!!

Live photos of GWAR. You either hate them, or love them; there is no in-between with GWAR. I’ve seen GWAR a bunch of times, and each time they get better, from their prop design and quality which is ever improving, even to their music. I have to say that I do not own a [...]

Anthrax Concert Photos

Anthrax Concert Photos

Anthrax are one of those bands that I have listened to for years, and always hoped to see. So when they announced that Joey Belladonna would be coming back and they would be part of the Big 4 concerts I knew it was only a matter of time before they [...]

Refused Reunion Photos

Refused Reunion Photos

Refused are fucking dead. We heard it for years, however after not playing live since 1998 the band got back together over the Coachella Festival in 2012. After that a North American tour was soon announced. Last night the Swedish hardcore group performed in one of the largest shopping malls in the world, located [...]

Metallica Live Concert Photos

Metallica Live Concert Photos

I had the privilege of shooting the one, and only Metallica last weekend; Its pretty rare that I get “star struck” of overly excited to being able to shoot live photos of a band, but this was Metallica! Sure I have shot “big bands” before, but this one one of [...]

Metallica in Edmonton

Metallica in Edmonton

So I got an email out of the blue yesterday informing me that I’d be shooting the Metallica concert…and was I excited. I’ve loved Metallica for years, I remember as a teenaged listening to Master of Puppets for days on end. It was quite an experience, and I thank the [...]

My take on Europe

My take on Europe

I’ve been back in Canada now for little under a week now, and it’s given me time to reflect on our three week trip across the globe. We started out in the UK, and meet up with a fellow Canadian we know living abroad in Scotland. I must say that [...]

Wacken open air festival

Wacken open air festival

So it’s the last day of Wacken. It’s been quite the experience to say the least. From the start things have been grim; festival security understand very little English and arguing about being able to pass into a specific area is a common thing among the media/press. Constant rain that [...]

Wacken Bound!

Wacken Bound!

We have now been in Europe for just over a week, and I am currently at a rest stop while on route to Wacken Open Air in northern Germany. We are stopped at a truck stop to grab some food and drink more beer. The Germans love their beer! Berlin [...]

New Site, New Projects & Europe

New Site, New Projects & Europe

I’ve been hard at work the past couple weeks revamping my website. As you may or may not know, I also run Inverted Design, so between the design and web work, along with my photography stuff I’m always busy. I have also been planning a Europe for some time now, [...]
