Hello, my name is Steven Medeiros and I am from Toronto, ON Canada. I have been a Portrait and Concert Photographer since late 2019. I decided to combine my love for music and photography to showcase all the great indie artists that the City of Toronto has to offer.

You can often find me at one of Toronto’s great dive bars and small music venues with camera in hand. Toronto has a vibrant and well-established music scene with live music on offer any night of the week. I have had the pleasure of capturing some amazing shows, as well as photographing some of these talented artists off stage, providing them with portraits to use for their promotional materials.

I am not currently affiliated with any publications, but I would like to be one day so that I can access larger venues and artists.
