A million and a half views on Flickr later, Desilets is a seasoned photographer with plenty of chops across a wide variety of subjects and shooting conditions. He is highly regarded for his landscape photography pictures, but has a personal passion for timelapse, action and architectural images.

Desilets embraces the latest digital photography technology and techniques but has a soft spot in his heart for medium format film. His work can be seen in person at Artfully Elegant and has also been professionally featured in web, print, broadcast and popular cultural media worldwide.
