Artist Statement

Photography is about taking risks, exploring abandoned or busy places, and learning about yourself and others.

On many occasions, I venture into the dangerous and cold night or through twelve inches of snow just to try to explore and document what a lot of people take for granted.

What they sometimes fail to see is that Toronto is not just about the CN Tower. It is all the things that surround it, the things that we see everyday but fail to notice because of its repetitiveness.

If we all just pay closer attention and appreciate what we have, we will see that Toronto is as beautiful as ever.
