Montreal Couple Preview: Catherine + Basem
The following is a preview of this afternoon walk with our dear friends Basem and Catherine in Mount Royal park. The weather was absolutely awesome and our time together was a memorable one just before the snow starts to take over our beloved city.

An Agile Gathering in Montreal

Montreal Engagement: Jennifer + Marco
This past weekend, my wife and I had the incredible honor to photograph our first engagement session together. Here’s a little story about that very special day… It’s Saturday afternoon, cloudy, and there’s an electric sense of passion and excitement in the air. The reason?

2011 Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal
This past weekend, I attended the 2011 edition of the Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal, where world-ranked professional cyclists come with their crazy bikes to climb some of our city’s toughest hills many, many, many times.

The event which goes by the name of the International …

François, A Martial Artist and Friend
I met François at church back in 2003. At that time, I was practicing Karate with a club, and when I told him I was doing some form of martial art, he invited me to his house to experience a different style of martial art. And different it was! No katas. No kumites. With François, …
Diana’s Graduation From Concordia University
Wheeeww! Today is one of those days for which I wish tomorrow was only a few seconds away… After sleeping for about four hours last night and providing a full day of training on some Microsoft technology to a small group of people, my body was exhausted. I’m not used to too much talking. My …
