Melissa Trottier has been a photographer since 1998. She built her portfolio by working with other emerging figures in film and sports to create photographs that are both intensely personal and outwardly provocative in expression. Melissa’s photography transcends the traditional by incorporating dark shadow and contrasts that infuse her subjects with ethereal light and imbue the mundane with something of the angelic. Melissa’s innovative and award winning photographs have been published in various local art and lifestyle magazines, as well as in publications for corporations such as VIA Rail Canada and Whistler Blackcomb.
