About
Riaz Oozeer is a Mauritius born, commercial lifestyle and documentary photographer now based on the East Coast of Canada.
His journey to storytelling began as a child fascinated by his grand father’s home videos. Most of those videos are now lost but their existence sparked a passion for capturing life.
Today Riaz has infused this passion into his work developing a unique street photography style driven by the need to capture everyday moments.
Riaz believes that the most meaningful images are those that capture special moments in the everyday. His ability to capture these moments shines in his street photography but can also be clearly seen in the stories he is able to convey in his lifestyle work.
To him there is no difference between taking his camera along while running errands at the grocery store or in capturing the most epic secluded landscapes
…it’s about capturing the moment.
