Alex Côté

Outdoor cinematographer & photographer

I was born in the Eastern Townships in Quebec, Canada. When I was only a few weeks old, my father took me fishing on a boat. By the age of 3, I was fishing like a big boy. A little later, at the age of 12, I started hunting. That's where it all began. We started filming our hunts with my friends. I really wanted to film every adventure we had.

I studied civil engineering and worked as a project manager in the construction industry, which taught me to supervise large teams, and to work in a Cartesian way. after 5 years in this field, I had the opportunity to work in a marketing agency for almost 2 years to further develop my passion for videography.

Now my goal is to show others how I see things outside. I always try to find a different way to film or photograph things and show stories in the wilderness that not many people have heard of. Small, efficient teams or even solo adventures are my specialty, and I am never afraid to be alone in the wilderness for a while, because that's where I can unleash my creativity.

In 2024, I founded the WildTales channel, a YouTube channel that focuses on showing documentaries about people who have crossed my path.
