I believe every living thing is beautiful and deserves to be photographed that way
~ Fine Art Photography Of Our Natural World ~
Vancouver Island Nature Photography
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but value is not. There is an inherent value in every living being, from the smallest creatures to the grandeur of nature itself.
My fine art photography aims to reveal the natural beauty and worth in even the smallest details, from humble weeds to tiny creatures often overlooked.
Thank you for visiting. Images are available to purchase as fine art prints. Please inquire.

How I got here…
For much of my 40+ years on this earth, I struggled with the need to make everything perfect, especially myself. But underneath it all, I hid feelings of not being good enough, and struggled with imposter syndrome for years. Today, I share my art to illuminate the inherent beauty in every living thing, including ourselves. Imperfections are what make us beautiful and we all are “perfect” in our very own way, a truth I’ve come to embrace.
Photography is more than freezing moments; it’s a gateway to self-expression. This may sound a bit unconventional, but I believe in the transformative power of nature photography. There’s something very special about being outside in the middle of a forest and seeing everything through the possibility of a photograph. It’s an invitation to embrace quietness and create from a place of inner joy.
Life is rarely easy, and like most of you reading this, mine has been filled with unexpected twists and turns. Photography has always been there for me to help me see things in a new way. And, while my journey is far from over, I am grateful for every moment I get to live in this beautiful world.
Thank you for being here and exploring my artwork.

When I’m not photographing weddings, you’ll probably still find a camera in my hand. In my “off-time” I love to photograph nature, specifically the forest and the wilderness of the west coast of Vancouver Island.
Below is a selection of my favourite images taken over the last decade or so. Most of them are from Vancouver Island, but many come from around or near my previous home in San Pedro, Spain.
