Education, Printing and Digitization and Services
IAs a life-long photographer with a career spanning from the film era into the modern digital age, I've gained a broad range of skills and experiences which have shaped my own creativity, and my approach to education and reproduction services.
Since 1995, I have presented a broad range of educational services for photographers around the Maritimes.
Between 2006 and 2022, I provided hundreds of courses and workshops and lead a number of United Kingdom travel tours, all focused on helping photographers at all skill and experience levels take their work to the next level.
In 2023, I shifted my focus to working exclusively through one-on-one sessions. This approach means I can tailor the educational process to your needs and provide the highest degree of attention and maximum flexibility in terms of subject and pace at the same time.
Mentoring is available through both online or in person sessions, ranging from an hour-long get-to-know you session via Zoom to a 2 hour hands-on session on location with models! I am available in urban HRM without additional charge, and with a mileage fee, I am happy to travel to you elsewhere!
The difference between an image printed straight from the camera, and a fine art print created after careful image processing and with the proper print settings is akin to fast food vs fine dining.
With two levels of printing available, archival prints can be made from finished, print ready images, or you can opt to have have me process your digital images photographs, and realize their full potential.
Digitization & Reproduction (Film & Artwork)
On top of eight years of experience at the Nova Scotia Archives, I have decades of experience in fine art reproduction.
High-resolution film digitization utilizes a custom 3d-printed digitization system, while reproducing artwork, historical documents and other visual material utilizes a range of scanners and studio equipment all selected to ensure the highest quality result every time.
