I am a freelance
photographer specializing in evocative travel imagery and
owner of Marshall Ikonography, a fine art print and stock
photography business registered
in 2004. My home base is in Ottawa,
Canada, but I capture detailed and beautiful images from around the
world. Recently we've travelled to Budapest, Prague, Vienna, Ireland, Canada's East coast, Edmonton, Jasper and Vancouver and the Azores. In 2009 Marshall Ikonography branched out to form a contract
industrial and event photography
arm.
Marshall Ikonography images are sold through this site
and Alamy Inc. based in Oxford, England. These stock images are used to
illustrate educational text books, travel brochures,
guidebooks, TV shows, magazines and websites. Private collections in the
UK, Turkey, USA, Canada and the Bahamas include fine art prints from
the portfolio.
Before returning
to full time photography, I worked in the research and
education sector specializing in high speed computer
networking. Between 1998 and
2007 I was the Director of Network Applications
at CANARIE Inc. in Ottawa, Ontario
where I helped facilitate research and development of IP-based, high-resolution
video conferencing systems, digital
audio/video capture & distribution, and other high-speed
networking applications using CANARIE's research and
education network.
Previous to my move to
Ottawa in 1998, I was the Manager of Research and
Instructional Services in the Information Technology Services
department at The University of Western
Ontario where I gently helped introduce network-enabled
applications for instruction and learning. A series of positions in
computing services at Western preceeded this last one. If you go back
far enough you'll find that my first job, at what was then the UWO
Computing Center, was as an computer operator during the summer of
1974. In between, I obtained a BSc and MSc in Computer Science at UWO,
was instrumental in building the UWO campus & Ontario (ONet)
internets and helped define UWO Web services.
In the mid-70's
Marshall Ikonography got its name and informal(!!)
start as a high school prom photography business.
