Photographers

For thirty years I’ve captured the North from every angle—the land, the people, the lifestyles. My passion for photography and for this place makes each new assignment feel as fresh and full of adventure as my first. I bring decades of experience to every shoot, and create images that reveal the extraordinary in the everyday.

I am a professional photographer in the Yukon specializing in portraits, headshots, fashion and commercial photography.I was born and raised in France, but I am a real Yukoner now!Right after graduating from the NY Institute of Photography in 2002 I got a business license and started creating Portraits of the colorful people who live here in the far North. I have been shooting full time ever since. I shoot on location and in the studio, and also have a small portable studio for quick and painless headshots on location.

The Yukon is my home and a state of diverse and stunning natural beauty. I have been a nature photographer for over more than 10 years and enjoyed every minute of it! I was born and raised in France, I came to Canada in 2008 to backpack during a year across the country. I arrived to the Yukon to experience a real winter in the Great North and I felt in love with the territory. To me, it is a real chance to play with the light and to witness the animal’s behavior and the harmony that nature offers, which creates a strong emotional state, a special feeling that I want to share.Photography is also a powerful tool for the advocacy of nature, that’s why I am stepping more into conservation photography, trying to awake minds contributing to save this beautiful nature.

I’m a visual storyteller that loves to document people, their expressions and experiences. It’s for this reason that I focus on documentary, editorial, event, sports and portrait photography.MY GOAL is to capture a glimpse into the soul of a moment, person or event. I’m currently based in Whitehorse, Yukon. It was here that I discovered my deep love of photography and where I am provided the opportunity to photograph some of the most unique people, communities and events. If you like what you see, I’m available for assignments.

I'm Brooke. I was born in the NWT and have been living in Whitehorse, Yukon for over 20 years.I love visual imagery and getting creative with painting, drawing, or taking photos -- this is where I thrive. There is way more to photography than focus, composition and exposing.. there is an art for selecting the right moment. My favourites are the 'in-between' moments.. so you'll notice in most of my work it's not your typical smiling shot; it might be an intense stare from your very independent toddler, the giggles from your children, or the face of a new mom looking down at her new baby.. ahh I just can't get enough of real, human emotion!

Photography provides me with the excuse to adventure and provides me with an opportunity to tell interesting, important and inspiring stories. I hope that my photography inspires us to be empathetic humans, with compassion for people we don't understand, our natural world and the animals that share this small planet with us.I am very proud to be a fellow in the International League of Conservation Photographers, to be represented by National Geographic Image Collection and Minden Pictures stock agencies, and to be an ambassador for Panasonic Cameras.
