Photography – Regina
Curtis Cameron, cCree from Beardy’s and Okemaysis First Nation, began his photography career in 1998. At that time primarily a videographer, he spent 15 years working for the CBC, CTV, and APTN television networks. All the while continuing to hone his craft as a still photographer. “I found still photography more challenging in order to tell a story, how do you tell a story or portray a feeling in one brief moment in time? And thats what drew me more and more into still photography, it was the challenge.”
He his early works consisted mainly of landscapes, he then went on to incorporate people in his landscape photography and to this day continues as a outdoor portrait photographer. Today, his passions are horses, his culture, and the people he comes across. “I love taking photos of elders, they have so much life and experience and I try to show it in my portraits.” Another passion of his is wedding photography. “I believe theres so much feeling and passion rolled up into one day(Wedding), and everyone looks great and happy”
