Last week quebecois singer France d’Amour launched her 8th album “le Present” and presented it to fans and the press at eXcentris in Montreal. I was asked by her record company to take pictures of the event. She had invited some other Quebec artists to perform with her: Steve Veilleux from Kaïn, Clément Jacques and Imposs each joined her for one song. While getting ready and waiting for the first people to arrive, I met Steve Veilleux, and spoke with […]
I have updated my smoke photography gallery, and have also split it up in two: ‘smoke’ and ‘smoke and mirrors’. Images in the latter gallery are symmetric due to the mirroring of the original picture upon itself.All of the smoke images can be purchased and delivered to your address. Metallic paper works really well for the smoke pictures, but I can now also offer acrylic prints and canvas prints, or even on metal. Could be just the right gift for […]

What we’re gonna do right here is go back, back into time… that’s what it felt like when I visited Val-Jalbert earlier this month. The historic village of Val-Jalbert is the best preserved ghost town in Canada, abandoned in 1927 when the pulp factory closed shop and the employees had to leave their homes. Still about 70 buildings remain, as well as part of the factory.. the place is quite surreal, but really worth the detour! There is some (french-language […]
St-Jean again.. Quebec’s national holiday. It always goes hand in hand with celebrations and of course: music! In 2007 I posted about the concert with Karine St-Marie, and this year I went to see Kain.. Being relatively new to Quebec, I hadn’t heard from the band before seeing them that day, and I was pleasantly surprised, the show was excellent, great songs, great music and atmosphere and it reminded me why I really like good live concerts. Here are some […]
