University Hall

This year, for some reason, I had a lot of people asking if I had any photos of Acadia. I have lots of photos taken AT Acadia- in Denton Hall, at the Irving Centre, etc- but I made it my mission this year to collect at least one good one of the campus. This was...

Winter Blomidon

I get a lot of requests for Blomidon- and it’s one my favorite places to shoot, especially at this time in the morning. It’s so peaceful up there.

Tors Cove, Newfoundland

I try to get to Newfoundland as often as possible- after all, three of my best friends live there, and it’s a landscape paradise. This is on a beautiful perfect July afternoon at Tors Cove, which is a good drive outside St. Johns.

From the travel vault- Hong Kong Central and Harbour

I was so busy enjoying Hong Kong when I traveled there last year that I didn’t take too many photos! Just spent some time this afternoon looking back through them to see if there was anything worthwhile- and this one came to my attention. Hong Kong Central to your right, with the Harbour to the...

Gaspereau Valley mist

Those who know me well, know that I can’t resist a good landscape shot. Landscapes are undoubtedly my best work, and also my favorite thing to shoot. There’s nothing like being completely connected to your environment with no one else’s wishes but yours. This shot of Gaspereau Valley was taken one morning when I was...

Sydney River Bridge

I was sent up to Sydney, NS for the first time last month for a corporate photoshoot. I was really excited about seeing Cape Breton! It was a lovely drive. My hotel was about two seconds from the Sydney River Bridge, where I caught this lovely sunset.

Crystal Crescent- after many attempts

I’ve been going to Crystal Crescent beach for years, for family outings, portrait shoots, etc. Every time I go, I attempt to get the ‘right’ shot of the beautiful landscape. Anyone who has been to CC beach knows that on the right day, the conditions are almost tropical- green blue water, white sand. Oddly, with...

The dark clouds and their perfect timing

After a wedding I did in June with some good friends, we ventured to the Dartmouth waterfront to catch some great photos (See Cyn & Dave’s post here). We had so much fun, as you can see- and just as we were walking back to the car to head to the reception, this huge, grey-blue,...

St. Mary’s Boat Club Sunset

Ahhh I loves me a good sunset. Can’t resist them, as everyone who knows me knows that landscape photos are my favorite thing to shoot. I photographed an awesome wedding last weekend at St. Mary’s Boat Club in Halifax (posted soon!) and snapped this lovely sunset off the dock that evening.

National Geographic- check!

An unbelievable life moment for me, when I learned that one of my best selling photos had been selected for use in a National Geographic article about Halifax. This has truly been a dream of mine through my entire career. It’s the Peggy’s Cove photo that is the banner for this website. You can view...

Blomidon in Summer

One of my favorite spots to photograph. Feels like I was just there in the spring- the seasons change so quickly! Here are two of my favorites from the last day of Summer- early morning sunrise.

Blomidon in Spring

Oh, how I love my landscape time. It’s just me (and in this case, Dad) and the world- with no right or wrong answer, just whatever vision I choose to have for myself and my time with nature. In this case, it was a night up at Blomidon at sunset.

Prospect fishing village

Got up several mornings last fall to try and get out to Prospect to grab this shot. Once you hit that road to Peggy’s Cove, most mornings it’s a foggy mess! Was very pleased that this particular morning was so clear. It’s lovely and secluded out there- a beautiful community.

Sandy Cove

I went out to this lighthouse half a dozen times in all different types of weather, attempting to get this shot. It’s foggy out there! Finally got it around 7 am on an early October morning. Terrance Bay, NS.

Ravenwood

I love the Valley in the fall. Have I mentioned that?Did an engagement shoot here on this beautiful property and couldn’t help grab a long shot of the driveway in the process. I’ve been looking for a driveway like this!

Reservoir Park

Going home in autumn is always a treat. This photo was taken at the reservoir park in Wolfville on an October afternoon.

Hubbards cove

Secretly, landscapes are my very favorite photos to take. It’s just me and the earth, with no one to approve of the photos- only my own vision and connection to the beauty of the world. It’s where I find peace. This sunset shot was taken at Hubbards, at a place called Rosewood on the Cove.

Five Islands

Last weekend, we went camping at Five Islands Provincial Park. I’m not much of a camper, but I shocked myself and really enjoyed the experience, and am really looking forward to going again. One of the perks I discovered is that camping = great landscape photography! Here’s a few.

St. Croix Mill

I spotted this mill while driving the old Number One highway, trying to avoid construction on the 101. It’s associated with the Minas Pulp & Power plant, and I immediately wished I had my camera. The next time through, I was sure to stop and climb around- there are some restricted areas so you have...

Purcells Cove

I call this place ‘Kat’s Cove’, as it’s where we took my friend Kat on her last night in Nova Scotia. It kinda sums up the feel of the province for me- the rocks, the ocean, the sunset.

Lawrencetown Beach

Oh, how I love to discover a new landscape spot. This little gem is Lawrencetown beach, at sunset in July. We climbed to the top of a grassy hill to get a better view across the little town.

Halls Harbour Boats

Again back to Halls Harbour. Happened to be here at sunset with a family for a photoshoot and couldn’t resist stopping for some photos ‘just for me.’ I love the boats hanging out here at low tide- makes you wonder what would happen if they were tied just a little tighter!

Golden Peggy

Also a frequent and favorite landscape spot- the famous Peggy’s Cove here in Nova Scotia. This photo has earned me two contest wins as well as being one of my best sellers.

Halls Harbour Purple

Halls Harbour is a great little tourist spot up on the north mountain in the Annapolis Valley. I’ve been up there several times and it’s becoming a favorite spot to photograph, particularly at sunset.

Scots Bay Hay Bales

Driving around on the north mountain looking for great landscapes- came across this field in Scots Bay. Had a great chat with the farmer, I was afraid he wasn’t going to let me leave he was so pleased to have someone to talk to. But this shot was worth it.
