ABOUT ME
I studied photography during my first year at Université de Moncton while enrolled in the Fine Arts program in the early 80’s.
I did photography for a few years but somehow life got in the way and it wasn't until 6 years ago, when I took a photography course at NBCC, that my passion and love for photography was re-ignited.
I have been a member of the Moncton Focus Camera Club for the last 4 years. I particularly like portrait, people, street and underwater photography.
