The Light at the End of the Tunnel

Trillium Health Partners had the honour of administering Peel Region’s first COVID-19 vaccine, and I was lucky enough to capture the event.

While the vaccine rollout is worth celebrating it is important to not celebrate a victory quite yet. Even with multiple companies pumping out vaccines it’s going to take time to administer the vaccine to those who are willing to take it.

Be sure to remain vigilant. Continue to mask up, social distance and practice frequent hand hygiene.

The staff at the Trillium Health Partner vaccination clinic are working hard to get all the ICU staff and long term care home workers vaccinated. Below are some images from the vaccination clinic.

Canada COVID Portraits

Check out this cool outdoor exhibit located at The Harbourfront Centre in Toronto, Ontario. The project is called Canada Covid Portrait. It’s a visual chronicling of how our lives have been impacted by COVID-19. The outside of The Harbourfront Centre has been covered in images by photographers from all across Canada, that capture how much day to day life has changed across the country.

One of my images was selected for this exhibit. I’m pretty excited about this for a few different reasons. It’s always rewarding to see your images in the physical world, rather than just on a screen. It’s also great to have your name mentioned alongside some of the other amazing photographers that are on display here.

I’m grateful for the opportunity I’ve had to work as a videographer/photographer at a hospital during a pandemic. If you told me in my interview at Trillium Health Partners that a global pandemic was imminent I might have reconsidered the job offer. Now that I’m in it I feel nothing but lucky. It is a privilege to get to document what is happening inside the hospital and work with the amazing people who step up and selflessly serve their community.

Physician Assistant Portraits // POTD 27.11.20

A few images shot for Trillium Health Partners for Physician Assistant Day.

As we mark #PhysicianAssistantDay, join us in thanking THP's small but mighty team of seven PAs in General and Neurosurgery. 🙏🏥

PAs can work in a variety of clinical settings and help improve efficiency and access to care, reduce wait times and shorten length of stay in hospital. Surgical emergencies continue during COVID-19, and PAs work tirelessly alongside their supervising physicians to provide high quality care.

Respiratory Therapy Week Photos

Respiratory Therapists are some of the unsung heroes of the hospital, especially during the pandemic. Respiratory therapists are an essential component in the battle against COVID-19. For Respiratory Therapy Week I shot a some portraits with the RT team at Trillium Health Partners.

Kane Hodder AKA Jason Voorhees

Anyone recognize this face? You might not even though he is the star of one of the most legendary horror flix of all time. This is Kane Hodder, the actor who has played Jason Voorhees in five instalments of the Friday the 13th franchise. He says that one of his favourite scenes in the series is the sleeping bag scene. If you have seen the movies you’ll know exactly what he is talking about. Despite Kane playing one of the scariest characters in slasher history he is actually a super nice guy!
