Public Speaking
I've been presenting my love of outdoor photography for over 30 years to small camera or nature clubs meeting in church basements or as a keynote speaker at major photo expos with audiences over a thousand people. I absolutely love sharing photos, stories and hard-learned lessons.
Please reach out to discuss your upcoming meeting or event and what I can offer. Here are my most popular shows below. And stay tuned for some new shows coming soon!
Confessions of a Crazed Photographer
I've crawled through mud, kayaked into swamps, froze my butt
off in -30C temperatures and hiked for hours in the dark (lugging camera gear)
to capture spectacular photos of nature. In this presentation, I share my
insight into the inspiration, passion and knowledge that drives great nature
photography. Get ready for jaw dropping photos and crazy stories in this fun
and humorous presentation that will entertain and inspire! This is my most
popular show - great for all audiences!
For the Love of the Landscape!
Great landscape photos have the power to inspire us to feel
emotion and sense of place! The best landscape photos have three key
ingredients: dramatic light, strong foregrounds and depth. In this show, I
share my top tips on vision, techniques and gear to create stunning landscape
photos that make others say 'wow!'
Just Winging It: All About Bird Photography
Bird photography is downright difficult, but also amazingly
fun and rewarding. I started watching birds when I was a kid growing up near
world famous birding hotspot Point Pelee National Park. I used to skip class to
watch birds during migration. I've been a bird nerd all of my life and addicted
to bird photography for over 30 years. In this show, I cover all the basics of
bird photography, with tips, techniques and funny stories from adventures
photographing birds to some of the most biodiverse ecosystems around the world.
