As a published photographer, videographer and journalist, I possess a genuine passion for exploring and capturing the world around me. My work has appeared in the Ottawa Citizen, The Montreal Gazette, Journal de Montreal, Jerusalem Post, Journal Métro, Cult MTL, The Westmount Examiner, The West Island Chronicle, Nightlife.ca and The Link among others. I’ve been tussled by police while photographing the Maple Spring in Quebec and I’ve chased politicians on the campaign trail. I thrive in these tense situations and live for the opportunity to express my passion for journalistic story telling in both traditional and emerging digital forms.
Photographe, journaliste et vidéaste pigiste, Leslie se passionne pour explorer le monde autour de lui afin de mieux le saisir. Il est convaincu que toute personne et toute chose a une histoire, et se met au défi de trouver comment la raconter.
