ROY GROGAN

My formal education was successfully completed at Fanshawe College in the early 1980's by earning a 2 year diploma of photography followed by a one year diploma of advanced photography. I have been working as a freelance photographer for more than 20 years, focusing primarily on architecture along with a mix of commercial and portraiture. These past five years have been an exciting time of transition for photography. I used to shoot with many film types using small, medium and large format cameras, I now record my images digitally. Computers and software are used to adjust images, sophisicated inkjet printers have replaced traditional paper and chemistry, in short, the lightroom has taken the place of the darkroom. In this sea of change some things have remained constant, a thorough knowledge of light, shadow and composition is still required to create strong images.
