Automotive photography has been the area where I honed my skills as a photographer, and what takes up most of my spare time during the summer evenings. Whether it be at local car meets, shows across Canada, or at race tracks; whichever event I attend, I bring my camera with me. This side of my photography has evolved over the years toward taking a more photojournalistic approach and at times cinematic, in the desire of creating a story between man and machine.

I really study the cars and pick apart the little details of them; finding the subtleties that the manufacturers and owners have assembled, making their cars individually unique. I like shooting at shows and local meets because it brings a challenge to photographers; to create uncommon angles and perspectives of the often, crowded venues. I try to avoid taking the typical front ¾ shot, (the angle most cars look best in) and get into those hard-to-reach areas. I look at how I can use my environment to my advantage to separate my work from the rest of the photographers and everyone else with a cell phone. This often includes using a crowd of spectators, the surrounding cars, or the natural setting of the site.

With the countless other photographers out there that share the same passion for cars and cameras, I try not to focus on just a photo of a car. But a visual representation of the community and craftsman that brings millions of people together across the globe. I have created so many great friendships through these two passions of mine and strive to display that in my photos.
