bio

Edmonton based photographer, Rene Grosso, has been doing Fine Art Photography both commercially and for exhibit since 1997. He has traveled extensively, taking photographic images in such places as New Orleans, Utah, Montreal, Czech Republic, Romania, Holland, India and most recently in Egypt and Ethiopia.

Inspired by the quality and medium of the Masters of Photography, Rene employs the traditional methods of print processing and hand developing in all of his photographs to insure their beauty, quality and longevity. He works mostly in Black and White and occasionally, when offered an appropriate situation or project, photographs in Color.

Rene’s images have appeared in local publications: SEE Magazine and VUE Magazine, national publication: Salon Magazine and international publications: Drum Magazine (US) and Eastern Eye Magazine (UK) Alternative Trends Magazine (Can). His photographs have been on exhibit at Kamina Gallery, The Fringe Gallery, Café La Gare, Fuss Art of Hair, Hip Salon, Lines and Legends Hair Salon, The Sugar Bowl Café and at The Global Visions Film Festival to name a few. Currently Rene is working on a Black and White collection of images taken in Ethiopia during the spring and summer of 2006; it is expected to be ready for presentation this summer.

Specializing in Fashion, Portraiture, Wedding, Music, Commercial, Industrial, Family, Travel, Headshots, and Custom Printing Services, Rene is available for commissions or for the discussion of the Fine Art Photography at 780.437.4034 or rene@renegrossso.com
