A Little About me

HI, I'm fred

A DECADE OF CAPTURING WEDDINGS

MY PHILOSOPHY

I've been a freelance photographer since May 2020, and have been photographing weddings for almost ten years. I have a special passion for weddings, where every moment carries its own story.

As a former paramedic, I intervened in the darkest moments of people's lives. Today, as a photographer, I have the privilege of capturing their brightest moments. This contrast between shadows and light is the best choice I’ve made, and it guides me every day in my work.

I'm always in search of the perfect balance between documentary and editorial, capturing intimacy and movement in every shot. Perhaps due to witnessing chaotic scenes, I've developed a fascination with the energy of chaos in a photograph. I love compositions where multiple stories unfold at once, inspired by the human in front of me in all their facets. Cinematography also shapes my vision, with careful framing, subtle lighting, and the intention to tell a story through each frame.

As I step into your celebration, I become part of the magic that unfolds. My goal is to freeze those fleeting moments—the shared smiles, the heartfelt embraces, and the joyful tears—into timeless images. 

WHAT INSPIRES ME

MY FAV THINGS

BEHIND THE LENS

My heart races at the thought of capturing the joy and laughter of your special day—the tender glances, the small gestures of love, and the unique moments that make your celebration unforgettable. Every wedding is a new adventure for me, an opportunity to document the essence of your love story in photographs filled with sincerity and warmth.

EVEN THOUGH I'M BEHIND THE CAMERA, MY ENGAGEMENT WITH THE MOMENT ALLOWS ME TO CAPTURE GENUINE, HEARTFELT IMAGES BECAUSE I’M NOT JUST OBSERVING BUT FEELING.

WHAT INSPIRES ME

MY FAV THINGS

BEHIND THE LENS

I have 5 sheep that I absolutely adore: Thelma, Louise, Dolly, Fleurs, and Bennie.

I was a paramedic for 3 ½ years in the Upper Laurentians.

My worst pet peeve is finding seeds in the bed—honestly, it's like tiny landmines.

I’m so organized, I’ve got a plan for spontaneity—scheduled for next Tuesday at 3 PM.

I love spaghetti so much. There’s a fork with spaghetti tattooed on my arm!

I’ve gotta admit, humans are great and all, but dogs? They’re the best thing ever created on this planet.
