Welcome to my nature and landscape photography gallery — a personal celebration of the beauty and wonder of the natural world. As an Ottawa-based photographer with over 40 years of experience, I aim to inspire both seasoned photographers and curious newcomers to reconnect with nature, sharpen their visual awareness, and fall in love with seeing the world in new ways.

Through my images — available in a range of sizes and finishes — I invite you to explore the subtle rhythms of the seasons and the powerful energy of light, texture, and colour that shape our landscapes. Whether you’re drawn to the delicate patterns of budding leaves or the glow of sunrise across a field, each photograph reflects a moment of discovery and presence in the natural world.

Photography for me is about more than gear; it’s about intention — slowing down, observing, and asking what first captured your attention. I believe that meaningful imagery comes from thoughtful seeing, not just the latest equipment or post-processing tricks.

Ottawa Professional photographer/instructor Jeff Ryan is hosting a series of nature photography field trips and workshops, available to anyone interested in improving their photography and camera-handling techniques. To fully accommodate those interested in participating, course dates fluctuate between weekdays and weekends depending upon the number of individuals enrolled in each class.  Click this link to find out more information about the Instructional photography field trips. 

I hope these images inspire your own journey of exploration and expression. Let’s Chat
