Burnaby Photo Art Collective
Anna Beaudry, Jillian Chateauneuf, Jayme Dunn and Jamie Poh make up the Burnaby PhotoArt Collective, four female photographic storytellers who live and work in Burnaby, BC. We are accredited members of the Professional Photographers of Canada and have recently earned provincial, national and international photographic awards. Our display features images that showcase the artistic structure and abstract elements of buildings from around the world.
Creative design and architecture evokes feelings and emotions and we are inspired by well designed spaces, creative architecture, and light that casts shadows in interesting ways. As photographers and storytellers it is our hope that viewers will be encouraged to slow down and appreciate the unique features of the buildings they walk past every day, taking in the entire form, the expressive elements, and the stories they have to tell.
