Photography by Brian CollinsHunter River, Prince Edward Island

Helping you tell your story

I make portraits, headshots, event photographs and fine art landscape prints from my home base in Hunter River, Prince Edward Island.

Landscapes

Landscape work is my happy place, and most of it happens close to home on the red dirt roads and shores of Prince Edward Island.

Portraits

I make individual portraits, with time in the session for your personality to come through.

Headshots

Headshots for actors and artists, and for business people who need a current photo for work.

Where I photograph

Beyond the Island, I've photographed Newfoundland, the Yukon, Jasper and Yellowknife.
