With great pride, we present the results from our session with our Photoshoot Contests winner, 🕺

We had a ton of fun here with outfits and props, using a custom 1964 Schwinn Stingray Deluxe Lowrider, a Vision Psycostick board, and a stool.
Yellow backdrop and two flashes, and plenty of room to be creative in post! 😁

It was very tough to choose just 10, there are so many good ones from the shoot. It was a such pleasure meeting and we had such a good time shooting!! 📷

Study tuned for our next contest! YOU could be the next winner!! 👀

Here are some photos from our little family day at the Biodôme de Montréal, a few weeks ago for Jess’ birthday!

I personally hadn’t been to the Biodome since I was in school, so I took the opportunity to see it as an adult and take nice photos as we went along! We had a wonderful time, and it was so cool to see Cosimo’s reaction to all the animals and plants a wide array of hues and colours to go with it. 🤩

Here are some of my favourites from the Biodôme de Montréal. 🕺

Voici quelques photos de notre petite journée en famille au Biodôme de Montréal, il y a quelques semaines pour l’anniversaire de Jess!

Personnellement, je n’étais pas allée au Biodôme depuis que j’étais à l’école, alors j’en ai profité pour le voir en tant qu’adulte et prendre de belles photos au fur et à mesure! Nous avons passé un moment merveilleux et c’était tellement cool de voir la réaction de Cosimo face à tous les animaux et plantes, un large éventail de teintes et de couleurs qui vont avec. 🤩

Voici quelques-uns de mes coups de cœur du Biodôme de Montréal. 🕺

Really great throwback to when we filmed a whole days’s worth of artists in collaboration with a couple of months ago. We took photos of everyone who came through, including both and performing “Lune” here in our studio!

We can’t wait to show you all the final videos that will be releasing in the coming months!! This one of Sena and Dave came out so very well! 😌

Throwback to a few weeks ago, taking some photos of and her incredible setup! One look at any of her pieces, and it’s plain to see that she has incredible eye and talent for all that is vibrant, reminiscent of so many things that we love. We snagged some photos of her pieces on display so y’all could get a sample of what we mean.

If you know what’s up, follow her and check out the amazing work she does. Don’t sleep on timeless art like this, you’ll wish you copped something sooner. ✍️👀

Here are some exclusive behind the scenes photos of our FINAL day of shooting last Saturday. Sometimes things work out so well, and when we came back to the flooded, dead forest, it had become so lush. This incredible backdrop is what we have used to get all of our opening/intro shots for our upcoming short film.

With .gallo who showed up time and time again, he really stole the show this time with his performance as the one and only Jason Voorhees. He filmed his scenes in a full-face, thick and heavy silicone mask. He had minimal visibility, minimal comfort, and very challenging shooting conditions. He did this in the rain, on a hot and humid day, in a flooded forest, mostly face-down and drenched in mosquitoes. After having worn the mask for over two hours at one point, his face had become slightly disfigured due to pressure points and inflammation (as seen in the last photo) That being said he was always ready to get back to it after having a short break. 🫣

Despite the incredibly difficult shooting conditions, everyone came through and pushed until we got everything we needed. Special thanks to for coming through and helping us through the day.

Extra special thank you to Julio, who bravely took on the responsibility and role of Jason Voorhees, helping us have the perfect person for the part and helping us get all the incredible shots that we did! We couldn’t have done it without you man!! 🙌🙌
He did some really incredible work, and we can’t wait for you all to see what he did with the character and how well he portrayed a slasher legend like Jason.

Our film is a fan-made short film, following the events of Freddy VS Jason, as he wakes up again 20 years later, still in Camp Crystal Lake. We worked incredibly hard to make it happen and we hope you will all be proud of us. We hope to use this as a calling card to convince the right people to give us enough money to make a canon film or limited series.

Stay tuned for the teaser and trailer!

This is a collection worth much more than the digital images you see on your little screens. This is gallery s**t, this is timeless s**t, this is magazine cover s**t, this is photobook s**t, this is “deserves to painted” s**t, this is divine s**t, this is the s**t you want for YOURSELF.

Shooting this incredible session with .the.tomboy a little while back, has to be truly be seen in order to be truly understood. The final result of the photos we got, and the edits that pulled it through, is the reason why people here on Instagram follow photographers; to see all of the cool s**t they’re doing, so they can draw that ever-so-sweet inspiration. Take notes y’all ✍️

Had a great time rolling up to for Go Skateboarding Day 2024 last Friday!

Took a ton of photos and met some pretty cool folks! It started to rain and I left but the action continued for another couple of hours and I regret leaving. 🥲

Still I edited about 50 sweet photos, so I tried to choose 10 but I’ll probably post some more! 🛹🛹🛹

Here are some photos taken during Mural Fest 2024. Not sure if all of these were new pieces for this year, but they were some of our favourites as we checked it all out. 😁

If you know any of these artists, please tag them in the comments so we can tag them on the photos! 🕺

Here is the first set of photos that we took of an incredible band, The Free Label, during their live studio performance at Studio Dandurand. We had Jacob Lacroix-Cardinal on deck taking care of recording, producing, and mixing on location.

It was a ton of fun to meet the boys and watch them do their thing. We were utterly impressed to see just how good they are, bouncing off of each other with a chemistry we’ve never seen before. We highly recommend you check out their music and see a live show, you won’t be disappointed! 🕺🕺🕺

We also filmed all day and we are super excited to share what will be coming of that. We have some more photos on the way so stay tuned y’all! 😁

Here are some photos we took on set for the My Thick Accent podcast, with Guru and his guest Ritika!

We put together a small set with two chairs and filmed a three can setup here. Guru has been running his audio podcast for a couple of years, but has decided to transition into video, and that’s where we came in!

Guru’s podcast is all about the life of immigration and what it’s like to be in a completely different country. He has interviewed people from all over the world, and all walks of life, and we highly recommend you check out right away. 😁

We also took a few photos after the podcast just to have them. We especially love the first and last photo in this carousel, makes us want to make a fake magazine cover to see how good the photo would look on the likes of GQ magazine. 👀

These photos could never do .eliraki justice. Her performance was just incredible and hypnotizing all at once. She took part in the lineup of artists that came to perform on camera in our studio for Open Sounds & Movements Libres.

Here are a few photos where we truly tried our best to capture her ever so fluid movements and careful steps, and we hope you are as hypnotized as us when you see her perform!

Here is the first set of photos we took during our video shoot on a very special project in paid partnership with

Here are some photos taken during our 3rd day of shooting, featuring some of our cast members!

I feel like this short film had been cursed from the very start of pre production last year, and when we start shooting again a couple of weeks ago, that worry was still very present. I felt worried the whole time right up until our third day of shooting. It was an amazing day, everything went smoothly, and we had so much fun shooting until 5:15AM.

Everyone worked incredibly hard to make this happen and I can’t thank you all enough.
Love you all!!

Here are some photos of .mtl and his art that was displayed at l’Union Francaise here in Montreal a few weeks ago. Along with displaying his art, he also participated in an Art Battle as well.

Joey is a good friend of ours, and I t’s always a pleasure to see him, especially when he puts himself and his work out there with a huge smile on his face.

We love you dude!!!

Easily one of the best music videos we’ve ever worked on at Collective Studios Montréal. Daniac made himself an absolute banger about the struggles of life and I’m thinking y’all could vibe to it too. 👀

Darren has been working himself to the bone on his career, and I think he’s earned way more attention than he’s received so far.

Why don’t we show him some love, and SHARE THIS DOPE VIDEO! It would also go a long way for Alex and I seeing as we worked very hard on the video!

Thanks everybody! 🥹
