Behind The Lens

Hi! My name is Jeremy Hannaford.

I am obsessed with holding onto memories. Ever since I was given a Canon Roll & Click at 10 years old, I knew I loved the idea of capturing moments in time, whether they were friends, animals or just the sunrise.

I never thought of making this love of mine a career until I became a journalist. While journalism wasn’t for me, I was always elated with how people responded to my photos. I strived for “in the moment” photos, from archer contests to RCMP officer doing tricks on a BMX bike.

Even when I started working in the film industry, thouse comments I got were always in the back of my mind. I never thought being a photographer was possible but I never truly shut the door on the idea. And good thing I didn’t!

When an old high school friend asked me to shoot their wedding, I leapt at the opportunity and I haven’t looked back. I’ve shot weddings in all kinds of weather. I’ve worked from Mexican Beaches to Quebec Shores. No matter where to whatever element we find ourselves in, I always make it fun.

Every experience has been an amazing one and I always look forward to the next opportunity. Life gave me a second chance to try something I feel passionate about, so I’m going to take that opportunity and run with it until my shoes fall off!
