I have extensive experience shooting in a wide variety of venues across Vancouver, from major convention centres to intimate, unique spaces. I'm very familiar with the lighting and logistics of premier locations like the Vancouver Convention Centre, the Parq Vancouver, and numerous hotels and convention spaces.
My portfolio includes events at large-scale conference halls, elegant hotel ballrooms, private restaurants, and unique urban venues like the Post Building.
Regardless of whether or not I've been to a specific venue, I'm comfortable adapting to any environment to ensure we capture the best possible images that reflect the energy of both your event and the space it's held in. If you have a specific venue in mind, feel free to ask!
