There is nothing like an assignment for a travel magazine to allow you to discover and rediscover neighbourhoods you thought you knew all about. Cities are living organisms and evolve on an ongoing basis and it's always worth going back for a refresher every now and then.
Following my previous post featuring a dozen images of my assignment in Old Montreal for American Airlines inflight magazine, I felt compelled to share some of MY favorite photos taken while walking around this part of town.
So shall we...
There is nothing like getting to capture one of your favorite cities and neighborhoods. This is why I was really thrilled to to get the opportunity to photograph Old Montreal for the Neighborhood watch section of the august issue of American Airlines inflight magazine: American Way.
In my opinion, this type of assignment summarizes what I love the most about photography: a mix of travel, portrait and architecture photography all at once. And even though I am familiar with that part of the city, it still allowed me to...
One of the most exciting thing about editorial photography is that they allow you to discover new places and new perspectives on a city. When The New York Times contacted me for a story about the construction of the brand new Four Seasons Complex in Montreal, I was more than happy to oblige.
As usual for this type of assignment, the photo editor sent me a list of the locations and people that would be featured in the article, which helped a lot find the angle I...
For this post, I thought I would take a break from architecture and interiors and share with you photos of one of my favorite assignment from 2017. Late September last year, I was contacted by REA photo agency on behalf of a french travel agency to create a series of photos for their website and brochures.
They insisted on the fact that they wanted the pictures to have a editorial/documentary feel and horizontal only format, which I was very comfortable with as I've had the opportunity...
To complete this series of corporate architecture photography projects photographed for Montoni Group in 2017, I thought I would share pictures of a new Capital One building located in Montreal.
Shooting the facade was straightforward, I arrived on location late afternoon to capture the sunlight illuminating the facade and stayed for the evening to capture additional dusk shots.
As you can see below, although the exterior is pretty simple architecturally and very functional, it does features some interesting design elements.
However, what impressed me the most about this building were...
With a good part of 2017 spent working on documenting new projects for the public art department of the City of Montreal, I had to share with you this new series of photos of Parc De La Promenade de Québec (e.g. Parc Carrefour Pie IX), which features artwork from Jean-Robert Drouillard and design by landscape architecture firm Civiliti.
The approach for this project was forthright. I wanted to capture the park at night when the lights are on butalso wanted to make sure I capture detail photos of each statue properly...
For this first post of 2018, I really wanted to share with you the pictures of a project I did last fall. Following the renovations of their flagship store in Montreal, Arc'Teryx contacted me to photograph the renovated store. Unlike the photoshoot done with Ted Baker, this one took place at dusk. The challenge here was to balance the time spent outdoors capturing the exterior of the store and the interiors in order to get the best luminosity for both parts of the shoot. Also, as...
Another definite highlight of this summer was getting the opportunity to photograph the new Lumenpulse headquarters in Longueuil (east of Montreal). I already had the opportunity to collaborate with The Montoi Group earlier this year and I was thrilled to be chosen for their latest completed project.
This project was rather straightforward, however the main challenge here was to be able to capture the entirety of the rather long building. In those situations, the best approach is to switch the camera to portrait orientation and shift...
There is nothing like getting a new opportunity to work with a client you've worked before. That's why when Ted Baker contacted me to photograph their brand new store at Carrefour Laval near Montreal, I was happy to oblige, as I really enjoyed the experience of being commissioned to photograph their Ottawa store last year.
The particular challenge for this shoot was that I only had 60-90min for the photoshoot and that the 15 best images had to be delivered before noon on the same day....
After a really really busy summer and fall, I am happy to finally get the chance to share with you some photos of the most interesting projects I've shot in the last few months!
One of my highlights of 2017 is definitely the Source sculpture by critically acclaimed Catalan artist Jaume Plensa and donated for Montreal 375th anniversary by the Desmarais family. I was commissioned for this project by Public Art Department of the city of Montreal. It's worth mentioning that this artwork is placed in a...
