Nike - Kobe 'Draft Pack'

After sacrificing social media consistency over many years— I’ve been lurking, but out serving a higher purpose.

Through a rough portfolio website between 2017 and 2019, I began learning the importance of platform ownership while working alongside @strictstandards here in London.

Back then, my website operated more like a self-branded Google Drive, permitting car enthusiasts to download their car show and auto event coverage throughout Ontario.

At the time, I had next to no understanding of SEO, copywriting, digital positioning, or how websites genuinely compound over time. I just knew having one mattered in my early career as a freelance photographer and graphicdesigner.

Rather than endlessly chasing trends and optimizing for social media algorithms, I slowly shifted focus toward building something permanent: a platform I own, control, and continue to shape for long-term sustainability.

What started through automotive photography and community event coverage has now evolved into a complete creative portfolio featuring:

• Commercial Photography

• Candid Photography

• Fine-Art Photography

• Graphic Design Projects

• Blogs & Articles

• Fine-Art Prints

Although that growth has translated heavily into both business positioning and creative knowledge, it admittedly came at the cost of neglecting my communities here on social media, while buried behind the scenes, building everything out as one independent freelancer.

Over years of experimentation, uncomfortable learning curves, creative burnout, and slowly understanding how branding and strategy connect, this project finally feels aligned with the original vision that lived in my head for years.

I only hope you tap in, browse the growth since the earliest days, and enjoy me stepping back out to creating and sharing the artwork we all love in the first place 🥂
