Howdy! I'm Curtis, a photographer and videographer from Victoria, BC.
I mostly specialize in event and portrait photography, although I've shot many different kinds. I also work full-time as a software engineer.
I started taking photos in 2013, after I bought a DSLR to make short films on YouTube with my friends. With a keen eye for detail, I've loved capturing important moments and solving technical and creative challenges through photography. Currently I shoot both digital and analog on Canon SLRs.
When I'm not behind the camera, I enjoy indoor and outdoor climbing, designing and constructing jewellry, and collecting records.
