Photography that feels
like it means something.

Environmental portraits, events, sports and music. Shot in the Battlefords, out where you're actually from.

Cary Ellis is a professional photographer based in North Battleford, Saskatchewan, serving the Battlefords.

The best photos I make aren't in a studio. They're on a gravel road at the edge of town, in a canola field at the last twenty minutes of light, at the rink on a Tuesday night. Real places, real light, people doing what they love.

Live music is some of my favourite work anywhere, and there's a lot more of it out here than people think.
