A quick introduction...

Brian Tao, a native of Ottawa, took the “scenic route” on his journey to discover his true passion: photography. Armed with an Honours degree in cell and molecular biology from the University of Toronto, he roamed the hallowed halls of academia, at the same time building a 17-year career in government and corporate information technology.

An early adopter of digital photography (1999, to be exact), Brian married technical acumen with artistic excellence and founded Luxography in January of 2005.

Having escaped the corporate rat race, Brian now spends over 80 hours a week not only as a full-time wedding and portrait photographer, but also investing his time and expertise in the worldwide community of amateur and professional photographers.

He currently makes his home in bustling downtown Toronto with a pet wumpus named Ozzie.
