About

Mac — TOKYOLUV

Mac is a Montreal-born photographer based in Tokyo, specialising in street photography and portrait work with a distinctly cinematic edge.

He began his career in 2007 as a 3D artist at Ubisoft Montreal, contributing to major franchises including Far Cry, Watch Dogs, and Rainbow Six over several years. A long-standing connection to Japan — built through repeated visits over more than a decade — eventually led to a permanent move to Tokyo in 2022.

His work is rooted in the city at night: artificial light, dense urban texture, and the quiet drama of people in motion. He shoots both editorial and personal projects, with clients ranging from independent creatives to corporate commissions across Tokyo.
