Here are a couple of photos I took of my dad before they tore down Ben's restaurant in Montreal. His press photo was in the front window for years. I'm glad I got to take his photo in front of that place before it was too late.

this is my band, Zeroes. We're kind of a big deal.
Malicious is an MC from Montreal. This was from a shoot we did for his latest album cover. He didn't go with this, but it's probably one of my favourites.
This is Ben Shemie. Also known as BlinkBlinkBlink. Like most of the other photographs, these are shot on film. I can't get the same feeling through digital.
I don't usually put live music photos up, but I like these ones. Here's Death From Above live at the cabaret in Montreal before they had the 1979. It was a show with Metric, also shown.
These are recent photos of Vita Longa. A visual artist from montreal who does cool stencil work.
