I am a Toronto-based photographer who specializes in travel and portrait photography. I first developed an interest in photography during my postgraduate training in internal medicine and gastroenterology.
I now run a brisk photography business through my website www.howesim.com and look forward to the day when I can fully retire from my regular 'day' job.
