Raphael Boudreault-Simard
Director & Pilot
Raised outside of Quebec City, Rapha has a contagious zest for life, which grew rapidly into a passion for the outdoors when he discovered whitewater kayaking. The difficult logistics that come with documenting this sport intrigued him, sparking the beginning of his filming career. Due to a serious shoulder injury, he spent more time behind the camera growing his passion for adventure filmmaking. Once Rapha discovered aerial filming, it quickly became his primary focus. He then established his company Flow Motion Aerials and is now filming internationally. Rapha describes aerial cinematography as his Everest of filming, balancing the highly technical operations with the creative process.
“From the vantage point of space, there are no lines, no subdivisions. There is only earth, a single celestial body teaming with life; the womb in which we dwell.”
– Carl Sagan
