I’m a professional architectural photographer and landscape architectural photographer based in Montreal, Quebec, available for projects in Ottawa, Toronto, and throughout Canada.
I work with architects, landscape architects, designers, developers, institutions, and other creators to produce photographs that communicate the character, quality, and intent of their projects. My architectural photography is used for portfolios, websites, awards submissions, publications, marketing and communications, and presentations to clients and stakeholders.
Every architectural project has its own character, and I believe the photography should reflect that. I work closely with architects and other creators to understand the ideas behind a project before planning the shoot. This allows me to identify the details, spaces, viewpoints, and relationships that are most important to the design.
My approach combines careful planning with an awareness of changing conditions on location. Light, weather, season, surrounding landscape, and the presence of people can all have a significant effect on an architectural photograph. I consider these elements when determining the best time and approach for a shoot, while remaining flexible enough to respond to what happens on the day.
Using my experience and aesthetic judgement, I create comprehensive sets of images that show both the overall project and the details that make it distinctive. I pay particular attention to perspective, proportion, light and shadow, materials, texture, pattern, colour, and form, as well as the way people experience and move through a space.
I photograph a wide range of architectural and designed environments, including commercial and residential architecture, public buildings, interiors, urban spaces, landscape architecture, cultural projects, and developments. Where appropriate, I also incorporate people into architectural photographs to demonstrate scale and show how a space is actually used.
I have a particular interest in sustainable development and design, and in the positive impact that architecture and landscape architecture can have on the lived environment and our experience of space.
Architecture is not simply about buildings. It influences how we work, live, move, interact, and connect with the places around us. Landscape architecture similarly shapes our relationship with the public realm and natural environment. I’m interested in photographing those relationships as well as the physical qualities of the projects themselves.
To paraphrase the architect Norman Foster, to be an architect you must be an optimist. I share that sentiment. At its best, architecture is an expression of hope: an attempt to create something better than what was there before. I aim for my photographs to reflect that optimism, while remaining honest to the character and intentions of the project.
Based in Montreal, I’m available for architectural photography assignments throughout Quebec and Canada, including Ottawa and Toronto. I’m also available for projects elsewhere in Canada and internationally.
Whether you need photography for an architecture portfolio, a project website, an awards submission, a publication, marketing materials, or a comprehensive visual record of a project from construction to completion, I would be happy to discuss your requirements.
