Canadian Rockies Landscape Photographer
Based in Calgary, I specialize in Canadian Rockies landscape photography and lead photo tours and workshops throughout Banff, Jasper, Canmore and other locations across Alberta.
Explore Alberta Through My Photographs
Explore Alberta’s varied scenery through my landscape photographs, from mountain lakes and forested valleys to foothills, waterfalls and open prairie. At Bow Lake in Banff National Park, a wooden bridge leads the eye across the water toward the peaks of the Canadian Rockies, capturing one of the region’s distinctive settings. The images on my Alberta photography page are accompanied by firsthand stories about the places I have visited and the moments that shaped each photograph. Together, they offer a personal view of the province, including familiar locations and quieter scenes that reveal Alberta’s changing character.
Photography Subjects Across Alberta and the Canadian Rockies
My photographs explore mountain scenery, alpine lakes and wildlife, highlighting the light, details and natural surroundings that make each subject distinctive.
Alpine Lake Photography
Lake Louise’s turquoise water and surrounding peaks inspire my alpine lake photography in Banff National Park, with shoreline details and reflections shaping each composition.
Mountain Landscape Photography
The Canadian Rockies’ dramatic peaks inspire my mountain landscape photography, with changing light, rugged ridgelines and layered valleys shaping each composition throughout the seasons.
Alberta Wildlife Photography
My Alberta wildlife photography captures elk, wild horses and other animals in their natural habitats, revealing quiet moments and behaviour across the changing seasons.

Milky Way Photography Workshop in Alberta, Canada
Alberta’s dark-sky locations offer a range of settings for photographing the stars, from open horizons to mountain landscapes in the Canadian Rockies. Each environment brings different foreground shapes, distances and ways to connect the night sky with the land. I lead hands-on night sky photography workshops for local photographers and visitors from across Canada who want to learn outdoors and build confidence working after dark.
Preparation begins before you arrive at a location. Learn how the moon phase, weather, cloud cover and light pollution can affect a shoot, and how to choose a place that suits the scene you want to create. With PhotoPills, you can plan when and where the Milky Way will appear, then consider how its position may work with the landscape.
In the field, I explain how to focus accurately in darkness and adjust camera settings for the conditions. You’ll learn to assess exposure, review test images and make adjustments so the stars and foreground are recorded with useful detail.
Composition is also central to a compelling astrophotograph. We’ll look at how foreground elements, mountain silhouettes and open space can guide the viewer’s eye through the frame.
The learning continues after the shoot with post-processing techniques for refining detail, contrast and colour while keeping the night sky natural.
Explore landscape photography beyond the night sky through guided workshops and tours in destinations across Canada and around the world. Each experience offers time in the field to photograph the character of a place and develop your own creative approach.
