Peter grew up with a passion for nature and the outdoors. He graduated with a degree in outdoor recreation and countryside management and has worked professionally as a naturalist guide for the last 12 years in England, France, Italy, Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates, the U.S. and Canada. As a professional photographer, he especially loves capturing candid wildlife shots and shooting during the fabled "golden hour."

When he's not out guiding adventures, you'll find Peter in the British Columbia backcountry splitboarding and mountaineering. During the summer months, he competes in enduro mountain bike races and multi-day sail races in northern Ontario. Most recently, Peter completed his Advanced Open Water Diver certification with an aim to become a dive master for ship-based expeditions.
What Our Guests Say
Pete was fantastic! I came home not only with wonderful pictures of the aurora but a whole new appreciation for night photography. He taught me so much about how to use my camera and iPhone to take pictures at night. His knowledge of Churchill and the wildlife and culture was outstanding. I enjoyed learning about the Indigenous people of the area and have a new appreciation for them as well. I would definitely recommend him to others and would enjoy going on another adventure with him.
Pete is AWESOME! He was patient and was able to help with a wide variety of cameras. The guests had a broad variety of experience too, yet he was on top of it all. I was impressed by his knowledge of the area, the wildlife and the people of Churchill. Pete is a warm and considerate guide, and I look forward to going on another trip with him.
I know people tend to say, 'My guide was the best guide ever.' But in Pete’s case, it’s true! He knows so much about wildlife, the environment, and the area; he is a very knowledgeable photographer who shared his knowledge; and he was organized and punctual while also being flexible. Pete also has first-class interpersonal skills and spent time with each guest throughout the trip. He really made our adventure memorable.
