Over the course of running the Outdoor Site (read: Beer Tent) at the 18th edition of the Ste-Ambroise Montreal Fringe Festival I was able to snap a few shots of the goings on around the tent. The Indyish Mess, Pop Montreal, pancake breakfasts, improv, stand up, buskers, fringe artists, shenanigans, volunteers, staff, groupies, musicians, lovers […]

So I’ve been toying with the idea of starting a bit of a fashion column but as soon as I’d try to start writing, I would start off with a serie of photos and have nothing to say. I’ve been taking photos for a bit over a year now and have never been much of […]

The 19-year-old photographer braves daunting climbs and security guards to bring us surprising images of the city’s secrets, from the guts of the sewer system to a breathraking view of the fireworks, as seen from […]
Art spaces, studio spaces, the hatching zones of madcap schemes and creative endeavors, this is what MIx Magazine is looking for.
