3) H4H – Photography
Photography
When I was a child, my aspirations centered around becoming a National Geographic Photographer, crisscrossing the globe to capture its wonders.
Since I moved to Vancouver Island in 2016, I have been fascinated by the beauty of the natural beauty of Canada’s West Coast!
In 2018, I invested in a Cannon SL2 to capture moments in time and document the diverse and unique expressions of people, the richness of cultures, the beauty of nature, and the untamed spirit of wildlife.
In 2023, I completed a Drone Pilot Operations course and received my Advanced RPAS Pilot License). I invested in a DJI Mini 4 Pro Drone to elevate my photography portfolio and push my boundaries to capture moments uniquely. Engaging in this blend of artistry and science has broadened my perspective, unveiling an entirely new realm of human capabilities.
I have enjoyed taking every shot, and I hope you can enjoy what they mean to you!

My Inspiration
From a young child, I was always around a camera; my father was constantly capturing moments of our childhood, travel adventures, and wildlife. Over the years, I had some exposure to the basic functions of his Cannon camera.
I have always been fascinated by the development of quality and technology, and I value capturing special moments. Since relocating to the Island from fast-paced Vancouver, I have made time for personal self-care and this has helped me slow down to enjoy the finer moments of our local culture. And during my solo travels abroad, my camera is my constant companion.
Positive feedback from the two albums below has ignited a newfound passion and joy in developing and sharing my work. Knowing that others can be inspired by a mere photograph is immensely gratifying. So, a sincere “thank-you” for being a part of this journey and appreciating the stories my pictures tell.
