Ah yes, the “About Me” page. I bet you're guessing this is going to be the boring blah blah blah’s all about me and my passion for photography. Well, I’m not here to go on stating the obvious.

What you need to know about me

As a photographer I lean towards the past. That is where the stories are. Stories we may never be told but I like to find these things and let my imagination create. Sometimes they are sad stories, sometimes they are stories of a triumphant escape to a better life. Really though, we will never know, but that in itself is a story.

I like to find the subjects of these photos and for a brief moment share a breath with them. To connect with their material shell and show the beauty that still exists within the time they've got left. 

Landscape photos for me are similar but different. It's safe to say that there are not many places left in this world that haven't been touched by man. To me it's incredible to pretend that I am the first human to witness and capture such natural beauty and granduer that so many places hold. That alone is the reason I shoot landscapes. 

I have roots in Vancouver and Calgary, Canada but am currently on a perpetual road trip of North America to make more new images because, well you know, I'm passionate about photography. I really like to travel to find and make those photos. My photography education is ongoing and I don’t have a bunch of history and awards to ramble on about. All that said, I've won a few contests and have had some images featured on Fox News, Huffington Post and the likes. So that is kind of cool.

I’m also trying to make this big blue marble a slightly better place by giving my gift to those less fortunate meaning much of my print sales and hired income goes toward the expenses of this project.

There. Hopefully that was quite painless for you.

What I know about you

You’re here because you’re either

A) Looking for something nice to hang on a wall you have. Excellent. As you may have noticed I have quite a few photos that are for sale. And... Shhh. Don’t tell anyone but I also like to communicate with people who buy my art to make sure they are happy with it, so if you buy a piece of my work I'd love to hear from you when it arrives. Yeah I know, that’s not very digital age of me, but I like to know that you're happy with your purchase.

B) Looking to hire a photographer. In which you want to know if I’m capable, knowledgeable, available, and /or affordable. The answers to these questions depend on who you are, what you need and the budget you have. To that, I say lets have a chat. I’d be honoured to take the time and chat with you about your project and see if we can work out all the details that allow us to work together. Thank you for your interest and your time,

Humbly yours,

Wayne
