My name is Marcel, and I am a Niagara-based photographer specializing in portrait, fine art, and wedding photography. Born and raised in St. Catharines, I discovered a deep connection to photography at a young age, captivated by the cinematic expression and timeless quality of the black-and-white photos in my parents’ albums. This early fascination evolved as I began experimenting with my mom’s Kodak Ektralite 10, often sneaking it off the table during family gatherings to capture moments and objects that intrigued me. These experiences sparked a lifelong passion for photography and a profound appreciation for its ability to tell compelling stories through images.
Over the years, I have honed my skills and developed a unique style that emphasizes capturing genuine emotion and creating images that reveal, excite, and inspire. My work is characterized by its narrative quality, aiming to tell a story with each photograph. Whether I am shooting a wedding, a portrait session, or fine art pieces, my goal is to create timeless images that resonate with viewers on an emotional level.
I believe strongly in being a client-friendly, service-oriented professional. My approach to photography is collaborative, working closely with my clients to understand their vision and bring it to life. I am dedicated to providing a personalized experience, ensuring that each client feels comfortable and valued throughout the creative process. By fostering a collaborative environment, I am able to deliver high-quality, creative work that meets and exceeds my clients’ expectations. Creativity flourishes through these close collaborations, and I take great pride in the relationships I build with my clients and the stories we create together through the art of photography.
