Vincent Laforet

After posting about the Canon Expo I wanted to go a bit further in depth about Vincent Laforet. Starting out as a photojournalist, Mr. Laforet spent years telling stories through a single image. After moving towards motion capture with the advent of the Canon EOS 5DmII, we have the opportunity to see how a photographer can tell a story with motion. We're moving past one image to tell a story and now telling smaller pieces of a larger story with multiple shots and movement.

Here are some samples of his photojournalist work:


And some fantastic tilt-shift photography(which started the trend and led to an iPhone photo filter):


And then there was video:




This video was viewed so many times (in the millions) when it first appeared on Canon's website that it crashed their servers.
