Van’s Photography


Jerry has been working in portraiture for the last 21 years. He started photographing weddings and slowly used the people skills developed there to create family portraits. The turning point in Jerry’s career came in 1989. He went to Whistler for the Professional Photographers Association of Canada’s national convention. It was there that he connected the heart to the camera; to create the portraits with intense feeling and emotional response he is now recognized for. Continued investing in his craft, notably the week long Wall Portrait Conference in Yakima Washington as well as provincial and State conventions have kept Van on a constant learning curve. The importance of portraiture in your family history is never forgotten at Van’s Portraits, that point is driven home every time you look at your images of your family portrait session.

Mary Peppard’s creative process in photography is a combination of realism with “soft edges”. She uses her digital photography as the “underpainting” in her art form, whether it is a commercial shoot or a natural light portrait setting. Mary is Program Chair of the Nanaimo Harbour City Photography Club for 2004/05, a member for three years in the National Association of Photoshop Professionals and a member of the Canadian Association of Photographic Art (CAPA). She recently attended the Canadian Camera Conference 2004 where she was inspired by the work of several leading Canadian portrait photographers specializing in digital portraiture.
