Raised in Montreal. Now calls Toronto home. “The focus of food in my life has always been
on the quality and flavours of meals, something that seems to get lost in this age of convenience.
My wife, kids and I like nothing more than exploring local markets…for new taste sensations”.

"…It seemed perfectly normal that this couple was letting a complete stranger into their lives for
the sole purpose of taking photos." Voss’ bio page says it better than we can. Photo essay on
Chinese pollution appeared in book introduced by Robert Redford. Good tearsheets on his blog.
