I've been getting quite a bit of work through Metroland, which publishes community newspapers across Toronto and insidetoronto.com. Here are a few photos I shot on assignment, some that ran and some not.

Milltown FC's Brian Alcantara stretches to get the ball away from Portugal FC's Francesco Capone, in white, during a scrappy game that ended in a 2-2 tie, enough to advance Portugal to the semi-final round of the Canadian Soccer League playoffs.

About Me

I'm a photojournalist based in Toronto, Canada. I started working in the summer of 2010, shooting for weekly newspapers, magazines, and the web, after a year at Loyalist College in Belleville, Ontario. My background is in anthropology, and graduate studies took me to South America to look at social change and political empowerment. I try to bring together my anthropology and photography studies in my work, since at their best both are about looking closely to find revealing moments, so we can better understand one another's lives.
