Nature Photography

Uniquely Canadian landscapes, nature + wildlife

A selection of images taken across Canada, from outport towns to urban neighbourhoods, capturing everyday life, nature, and the environments that shape how we live.

Newfoundland was the perfect place to practice some wildlife photography, with the island's diverse wildlife commonly found along coastlines and grazing on tuckamore, evergreen trees bent low and clinging to the coast to escape strong ocean winds.

Each year, thousands of seabirds nest along the island's coastlines. These photographs were taken at Cape St. Mary's Ecological Reserve, one of Newfoundland's major seabird colonies and home to over 30,000 northern gannets (white) and 20,000 murres (the adorable penguin-looking birds).

Bonavista, on Newfoundland's northeastern coast. I took these photographs while watching whales breach the Atlantic and wandering among the weathered fishing sheds, and I couldn't help but feel the deep connection between the land, sea, and community. Every photo tells a story of resilience and timeless beauty.

One of my favourite things about Newfoundland is the rich culture and history, unlike any other province. From the historic fish sheds lining the coasts, to the twisting roads of saltbox houses in St. John's battery neighbourhood, to the picturesque and deeply peaceful outport communities, culture followed me everywhere I went while exploring the island.

And not only a rich culture soaked in Canadian, Irish, and Mi'kmaq history (from the music to the food and fine art), but locals fiercely proud of where they come from.

Exploring BC's lush rainforests felt like stepping into another world. It was hard to believe I was just outside of Vancouver, one of Canada's largest cities. Towering trees covered in moss created a canopy filtering sunlight, casting an otherworldly green glow over everything.

I explored some of the world's oldest rainforests on Vancouver Island via boardwalk trail, passing by trees thousands of years old.

In Tofino, I watched from above as surfers caught Pacific waves, snow-capped mountains in the distance.

One of the most magical parts about Québec is watching each season fade into another, bringing with it a whole new experience. From the vibrant fall colours in the Gatineau Park to the pine trees in winter, their branches heavy with snow.

My favourite songbird, the American robin, is one of the few songbirds that continues singing throughout winter. A small joy that always helps me through tough winter months.
