Marcel Petit - photographer, storyteller, MetisJedi

<p>Marcel Petit doesn’t mince words – he openly shares his journey, philosophy and desire to not only take a great photograph but connect with his environment. He is thoughtful about why he takes photographs and mindful of how he is capturing an image; he isn’t ok with being on default. Marcel is very respectful of the subject and strives to create a strong story. In his community, Marcel is known for much more than photography and he works to create discourse and builds bridges wherever he goes. When you mix in a great sense of humour and the ability to have some fun around everyday ideas, Marcel is going to continue to inspire both other artists but also those within his community.</p> <p>It was a real honour to speak to Marcel and both his community work as well as his photography. I hope that you are inspired to put down your camera and look around your community to see the beauty that is around you.</p> <p>To see his portfolio, please visit his website <a href= "marcelpetit.ca">marcelpetit.ca</a></p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
