Our Story
F-STOP To Success has been a photographic journey in the making. Despite having grown up in an artistic family, art was not a comfortable means of expression for me. Having a grandfather who painted with the Group of Seven definitely impacted my appreciation for art, however not my interest in making it. That was until my 10th birthday when my father gifted me my first camera. And from that day forward I was all things photography. Taking pictures quickly became my focus, my means of expression, and go to when times were tough. Being able to visually document my experiences and release my emotions on film was a godsend. The self-discovery and personal awareness that manifested through the act of taking pictures was invaluable. In fact, it is the reason why I am successful today. As a PhotoTherapy Specialist, Registered Art Therapist, and Professional Photographer I am now able to offer others the opportunity to benefit from photography and photographs just as I did. With courses in PhotoTherapy and Therapeutic Photography, students and practicing mental health professionals can now learn, grow, and blossom both personally and professionally.
