On the 18th of November this year, I’ve got an incredible workshop to share with you

I’ll be heading back up to Churchil, Manitoba for 5 days in order to search for wildlife and photograph polar bears.

We stay together in a cozy guest house with Home cooked meals. I’ll teach you all I know about animal behaviour, and how to get the best images of these majestic creatures!

There is already only four spaces left, so if you’re interested comment “BEAR” and I’ll send you the details.

This Owl 👀
One of the strangest parts of my career: this image went insanely viral the moment I posted it. Millions of views and likes across multiple platforms, even though I didn’t even look at it for almost a year after shooting it. I only found it while digging through my archives.

Since then it’s been copied, stolen, reposted, and resurfaced more times than I can count. The comments have been wild too… everything from “Is this AI?” to “Did you shoot this from a moving airplane?”

What I love most about it as a print is the balance. All that clean negative space pulls you in, and then the owl’s piercing eyes hit you with this intense, almost otherworldly stare. It looks incredible on a wall.

It’s available now in my online store. 🦉✨ (20% discount still available, link in my bio!)

Dancing Whale
One of the biggest images of my career. This huge juvenile whale spent what felt like hours but was probably just a few minutes playing and twisting in front of me, moving with such grace that it felt less like I was underwater and more like I was watching a whale dancing suspended in space.

Since releasing it, so many people have brought this image into their homes — some have drawn it, many have hung it on their walls, and a surprising number have even had it tattooed on them. That connection blows me away every time.

It’s available in my online store with a Black Friday 20% discount, starting at $83 USD. (Link in bio)

Another World
Shot in the cold, green waters of British Columbia — a perspective from within the bloom itself, as if you were a jelly drifting through the swarm. I created this image while shooting a feature for Canadian Geographic on jellyfish blooms, and it remains one of the most surreal scenes I’ve ever witnessed underwater.

It’s available in my Black Friday sale starting at $83 USD, and it looks incredible on the wall.

Queen of the North
2025 // Manitoba, Canada

Shot at dawn on the windswept tundra of Churchill, Manitoba. In the first light of day, she emerged out of the cold blue shadows — powerful, poised, and utterly unbothered by the deep freeze. There’s a quiet authority in the way she moves across this stark landscape, a reminder that up here, in the true North, she reigns unmatched.

One of my favourite images from my time on the tundra, I waited patiently as the sun rose, bathing this huge mother and her cub in golden light. As she silently walked past me everything lined up to be able to create this image. It was such an intense and humbling experience, but whilst I was shooting it the whole interaction was silent.

Crisp cold days on the tundra with huge momma polar bears and their cubs, waiting patiently for the sea to freeze so they can break free of the land once again and go out hunting. Shooting up in the higher latitudes is a photographers dream because of the low angle of the light and the time that the sun spends there gives you a lot more time in the golden hours.
