I recently had the pleasure to take part in a national project for Audi Canada highlighting International Women’s Day. Here are my 2 favourites.

Wheelchair Fencing

Wheelchair Fencing by Montreal Photojournalist Allen McEachern

In the early days of my career I was working to become an established photojournalists. Sports. sports, and more sports. I was invited to photograph a Defi Sportif event in Montreal. Prior to attending I was unaware of the sport of wheelchair fencing. Basically, the two combatants are seated in their respective wheelchairs which are then clipped into a track that hold them in place. All of the moves the athletes make are pretty much upper body. I was captivated by the speed and ferocity of the bouts. I found the frame you see above. and early and longstanding favourite of my sports photography portfolio.

Sir Richard Branson was one of a wealth of speakers attending C2 Montreal in 2013. Being in the room, C2 as my client. This is why photographers know so much!

LAURENTIAN LANSCAPE

I created this image while working with La Ville de Labelle, Quebec. They required some strong images showcasing the historic and rugged beauty of the Rouge River Valley. LAURENTIAN LANDSCAPE is part of my ongoing archive documenting the Laurentian Mountains of Quebec.

MONTREAL AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY

in ,

I had the pleasure of helicopter flight yesterday over Montreal. The mandate was to created a series of images showing the project development stages of various publicly funded infrastructure sites. Respecting my client, I offer you instead a few of my out takes from the flight. (Out-takes: images I create for my own interests)

C2 Montreal [RE] Imagined in a Covid World

in ,

C2 Montreal 2021 wrapped yesterday at Tohu. I was happy to be back with the C2 team and working alongside so many creative collaborators. After the loss of C2, 2020, due to Covid, I was curious to see how the event would unfold this year. C2 Montreal ran their iconic event on a smaller, [RE] imagined scale. This allowed them to test out their new "hybrid" event format, which combines both live in person with remote via screen participations. One conference I photographed just had three screens with people all interacting in conversation. It was bizarre but still delivered lively content. Many attendees participated on-line as well due to restricted in person places. All said, it was different, but still worked. Here are some of my favourite images from the three days.

Audi Canada - Mont-Tremblant - Editorial / Corporate Photography

in , ,

By Allen McEachern.

Audi Canada recently visited Circuit Mont-Tremblant for their week-long Audi Driving Experience. This bi-annual event puts you behind the wheel of some of the most exciting vehicles that Audi makes - R8, RS7, for example. In addition to getting to rip around at dizzying speeds, you also receive some great professional driving instruction. Which, all things considered, is a good thing. Erik Gauy, from Alpine Canada also came by to take some laps.

Tremblant Event Photography - Chambre De Commerce Pre-Gala

in ,

By Allen McEachern

Two of my favourite annual events to photograph are the Mont-Tremblant Chambre de Commerce Pre-Gala and following Gala d'Excellence. These two events are about a month apart. The Pre-Gala is a casual 5-7 cocktail where the finalists from various categories are revealed. The categories range from Employee of The Year to Business of The Year. The Gala d'Excellence is a more formal affair, with each year having a specific theme. Last year was the 1920's, this year is a Masked Ball. The winners of each category will be announce and honoured for their achievements and contributions to the community. I enjoy these events because of the members of the CCM-T. Mont-Tremblant is a small community, with a tight business network. Many of the members have known each other since grade school. The dynamic is fun, relaxed, but business like. This relaxed approach to business networking is great. People are more at ease, which creates more opportunity to connect.  Below are a few shots from the night. There are many more of my photos from the night on the CCM-T Facebook page.
