It's always a pleasure to work for a new client and this time was no exception. For this assignment, I was to photograph the brand new offices of Morneau Shepell for Metaphore Design.

While I was on assignment for Life & Style Mexico last summer, I had the opportunity to visit a very unusual place in Las Vegas: The Neon Museum and really wanted to share a few more pictures of this unique location.
Located north of the strip at the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Bonanza Road, the Neon Museum preserves more than 150 signs. Many of them were being stored by The Young Electric Sign Company and were slowly being destroyed by exposure to elements. So in...
I love being commissioned to shoot interiors, so when the Miami based firm Britto Charette contacted me last year, I was more than thrilled!
Located in Westmount in the Golden Square Mile vintage building, This 1920s era duplex is one of the most beautiful project I had the chance to shoot in 2013.
