hello, my name is Agnes

First I am an observer,
Then a Photographer,

 

The first question I normally get asked is: why photography? I think the answer somewhat lies in the first statement above; I've always been in awe of everything and everyone around me. Like a spectator, I immerse myself in the environment, present to the interactions that take place. Before I became a photographer, I remember going to the airport with my friend Linda with a coffee in hand, & we would sit and watch the departure and arrival terminals, immersing ourselves in the emotions that take place when loved ones unite/leave one another. I find a great deal of meaning behind capturing moments between people. 

 

A little bit about me:

I’m Inspired by spontaneous adventures, raw emotion, fearless love, morning & evening sunlight, natural fabrics, earthy tones, a smile, my son and Northern Ontario

When I’m not acting as a third wheel behind the lens, you can catch me:

  • Going on forest adventures with my bff/son Remi {being a mom is my greatest joy}

  • Practicing my latte art {hi, coffee addict here}

  • Engaging in Surya Namaskara under the canopy of a tree {yoga helps me make sense of the world}

  • Collecting (with the help of Remi): rocks, ideas, coffee mugs, wildflowers… {this completely contradicts my trying to live a minimalist life}

  • Exploring the world one country at a time {secret gardens & off-the-beaten path hikes are my favourite}

  • Constantly striving to become my ideal self by reading books, meditating, listening to podcasts {faves include: To Be Magnetic, Manifestation Babe, Ram Dass here & Now, Duncan Trussel, Mind Your Business with James Wedmore}

  • Foraging {mmmmm mushrooms}

  • Hiking in the summer & snowboarding in the winter. {there is no such thing as bad weather}
