The masked man to the left was a random stranger I shot at the Friday night rubber meet and greet at IML. I found the red shot while working on a job for Richard and couldn’t help but notice how crazy they work together.

I shot Benoit on a really nice snowy day in December.  He was walking out of an office building on de Maisonneuve, saw me with my camera and jumped into a snowbank.  I wasn’t expecting him to do that and my sequence was blurry.  As he was walking away, I shot this instead.

Tomoe and I shot skateboard stunts during the Christmas holidays – it seems that was the only time that worked in our respective schedules.  It was fucking cold and the streets were covered in salt.  I asked him to ride handstands on his skateboard downhill against one-way traffic in the middle of Berri street – the light was nicer that way.

Photographers are nothing without the amazing participation of those they shoot.
