Among Hollywood’s Canadians, Trump’s attacks provoke a painful identity crisis Expats in California keep a careful eye on the federal election and Trump’s immigration crackdowns closer to home

It was great to meet and photograph other Canadians in L.A. for a story in the Globe and Mail.

Fairy Creek is an ancient forest on Vancouver Island. It hosts 2000-year-old trees that are under threat of being logged. Throughout the pandemic, a diverse group of activists protected the Fairy Creek area via blockades and unified civil disobedience tactics.

How the Los Angeles fires have unfolded, day by hellish day The melted wedding ring, the exploding house, the man who lost his home for a second time: each moment of destruction has reshaped lives in one of the most famous cities on Earth

This has been a tragic past 2 weeks. I had no idea this type of devastation created by fire could be possible. My heart goes out to all of those who've been affected by this catastrophe. Proud to have work with The Sunday Times on this very important story.

While Canadian authorities actively censored our fire zones from fire-trained members of the press, I struggled with access. I only managed to capture these images by unrelentingly approaching the fire zones from different roads throughout different times of the day.
