Today we take time to remember the people known as the Greatest Generation: the Canadians who fought in WW II.
I had the privilege of photographing a group of these war veterans, all over 100 years old for a project I started a few years ago, The Last Salute.

Incredibly proud of my dearest friend baritone Bastiaan Everink. After 25 years, he decided to end his opera career to fully focus on his work as a trauma therapist for veterans with PTSD. Before becoming an opera singer he was an elite soldier, serving in Iraq during the first Gulf War. This photo was taken after the premiere of Rob Zuidam’s opera Hercules, based on Bastiaan’s life as a marine.
