105 : Anissa & Shay

July 20, 2024

Anissa and Shay met while studying linguistics, so it's only fitting that they were married at the historic University of Toronto. As Anissa and Shay read their vows, a hawk soars above the columns of the Hart House Quad, a powerful symbol of strength and clarity of vision.

103 : Portraits d’équipe / Team Portraits

February 13, 2024

Si je ne faisais qu’une seule chose avec mon appareil photo, ce serait des portraits individuels. Pour moi, chaque séance de portrait crée un espace d’intimité, de connexion. Mon objectif est plutôt de créer des portraits uniques avec chaque personne.

If I could do just one thing with a camera, it would be making one-on-one portraits with people. For me, a portrait session creates an intimate space for connection. My goal is to create individual, unique portraits with each person.

Blog 92 : Carly & Zef

June 2, 2022

The beginning of the maternity session is dark and moody: completely void of leaves, the bare trees are a dark chestnut brown; the sky is heavy with an ominous threat of more rain. Suddenly the setting sun bursts through the clouds and the heaviness of the day lifts.

Blog 89 : Urban Panache (Artists in Studio)

November 11, 2021

Salvageable. In a way it's a beautiful parallel to the artistic process Margot uses in her work. Discarded bike seats transform into animal heads, metal handlebars into antlers, old bolts and coils into eyes. Margot is a punk artist and sculpturist based in Tio'tia:ke (Montreal). “Artists in Studio” is an ongoing portraits project of Selena Phillips-Boyle.

Blog 84 : Pandemic Gardens (Part Five)

March 16, 2021

Élise pulls out a bag of soil and transplants her coleus into a bigger pot. Her glasses slip down her nose as she focuses on the task. As she moves around the balcony, I photograph a quiet calm in her, a direct impact of Élise's garden on her mental health.

Blog 84 : Pandemic Gardens (Part Three)

February 16, 2021

Kristen welcomes me into the collective garden and I'm transported from the busy borough of Point-Saint-Charles in Montreal to a lush vegetable garden oasis. An important aspect of Kristen's mental health is her engagement with socio-political issues, and taking power over her food is one way to achieve food autonomy.

Blog 84 : Pandemic Gardens (Part Two)

February 2, 2021

As I photograph Leh, she slowly moves around her garden with her green watering can, listening to the needs of each plant before carrying on. Seeing her body relax spending time surrounded by growing things, I can see how time spent in her garden is good for Leh's mental health.
