The Freckled Toad

A simple Canadian girl, with curiousity and a camera.  That is my story.... so far.

I love cinnamon.
I attempt to capture the plethora of everday, ordinary, simple, eclectic beauty which surrounds and envelops us and is part of our daily experience. . .

I like to shoot "on location" which basically means, I do not have a studio.

I do have a degree in Creative Photography from Humber College, and I am still proud that the portfolio I used to get into this course included shots I took with my cheap 110 and high school darkroom experiments.

I did portraits and weddings, before the digital cameras.. much  more stressful!  I moved away from this type of photography, but recently have considered revisiting it, as I much admire the "journalistic" approach to weddings and non-posed/non-traditional portraits.

My first photography love is nature and landscapes.  Beauty which is not forced or contrived but rather just is.  The older I get, the more visible this beauty seems to be, as I find it in many unexpected places.

As contrived as it sounds, for me, photography is a journey without a destination.  I learn from every shoot I do, and every blog I read.  The quest for knowledge is a life long experience.

I encourage and welcome your comments and suggestions... feedback is the best way to grow.
