A TVC / photoshoot combo for the Environment and Climate Change Canada government ministry
A TVC / photoshoot combo for Barilla pasta with the composer of the 'White Lotus' tv series.
One awesome four-day photoshoot for a fashion client highlighting Montreal’s European vibe.
One full segment of the 'Chrysalides' feature documentary filmed in the Lofoten, Senja and Tromso islands of Northern Norway.
And much more work that, unfortunately, our NDAs prevent us to share until their respective publications."
