BADASS DOG PHOTOGRAPHER IN MONTREAL
I am obsessed with creating dynamic, edgy portraits of unique characters being their most weird, wild and wonderful selves
Animals are the best at this which is one of a million reasons why although I am inspired by my past-lives as a magazine art director and concert photographer, I love that I now get to work with pets and the people and brands who love them.
Je suis obsédée par la création de portraits dynamiques et authentiques de personnages uniques à leur naturel, sortant leur fou et étant la plus merveilleuse version d’eux-mêmes. Les animaux excellent dans ce domaine, ce qui est l’une des multiples raisons pour lesquelles, bien que je sois inspiré par mes vies passées en tant que directrice artistique de magazine et photographe de concert, j’aime le fait que je puisse maintenant travailler avec des animaux de compagnie et les personnes, et les compagnies, qui les aiment.
Savais-tu que:
Elle a déjà joué de la guitare électrique dans un groupe death métal composé de 4 femmes
Elle a voyagé à plus de 25 pays sur 5 continents
Sa couleur préférée c’est le noir
Elle déteste parler d’elle-même à la 3e personne mais elle le fait quand même
Because you’re not looking for a someone who just pushes a button on a camera…
You love dynamic images & art
You want a photo experience that’s unpretentious but still results in mind-blowing images
For art in your home you prefer one-of-a-kind stuff. For artwork of your pet, you want to capture just how uniquely badass they and the bond you share really are.
Chantal’s clients include small businesses, agencies, magazines and organizations. But the majority of her clients are regular people for whom their pets are part of the family.
Chantal is not afraid of getting dirty to get the shot and she can be seen regularly rolling around on the ground (in the mud) to capture the best angle (see image below).
Chantal also volunteers her photography services to shelters and organizations that ensure animal welfare in Montreal (Chiots Nordiques and the Montreal SPCA to name a few). Chantal has special projects each year that help raise funds for animals in need.
She lives in old Montreal with her cat Shirow (adopted from the Montreal SPCA).
