About your photographer

Born in Montreal Canada, Victoria studied photography and international development in the United States before moving to the Middle East region. She has lived and worked in Egypt for the last five years, where she has covered breaking news stories on the mainland as well as in Sinai and the West Bank. She has worked most notably with news agencies Reuters and EPA, UN agencies UNICEF and UNDP, as well as several international newspapers and magazines. Although she covers a wide variety of topics, Victoria prefers taking feature or stand alone photographs of everyday life in Egypt, spending many hours roaming the city and countryside looking for interesting shots.
