“An editorial photo shoot of Olympic medalist Tessa Virtue for the announcement of her retirement from figure skating. I’ve photographed Tessa over the years for various Olympic and commercial campaigns, and she’s always game to stay a little after our shoot to make something fun and creative. When she announced her retirement, I knew we needed to shoot something that would show a different side of her. We created a persona and decided to shoot an edgy editorial, traipsing all over Toronto and even putting Tessa in a full gown swimming in a pool for our last shot of the day.”
