Meet Olivier – Your Workshop Guide
Hey, I’m Olivier, founder and lead photographer at Twinography Studio, which I run with my twin brother, Jeremy. My photography journey started back in 2012 when I was snapping pics at student events—mostly for the free beer! While Jeremy was filming indie projects, I was learning the ropes as a wedding photography assistant (and enduring $50, 12-hour days).
Later, I worked at a photo editing company, where I spent years analyzing incredible work from photographers around the globe. That experience shaped my style and eventually led to launching Twinography Studio in Vancouver. Along the way, I’ve picked up awards from Fearless Photographers and Canadian Wedding Photographers.
Now, I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned and helping others create magic behind the lens. Can’t wait to meet you at the workshop!
