ABOUT
Hi there, welcome to my website! My name is Philippe St-Germain and I am a photographer based in Squamish, British Columbia. While my main career is in coastal engineering, I’ve developed a keen interest for photography over the last few years; it is something that I find myself enjoying more and more as time goes by, hence I’ve finally decided to put myself out there and offer my services to everyone.
VISION
Adventurer at heart, I lean naturally towards shooting outdoor scenery and adventures, although I love creating imagery of all kinds including lifestyle and commercial. I think that every picture has a story to tell and I love meeting new people in the process of getting the shot; let me know what ideas you have in mind and it will be my pleasure bringing them to life!
