"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."
— Oscar Wilde

A Message from our Founder

 

I know what it is like to navigate the depths of grief and despair. I have been there, and I can tell you firsthand: photography saved my life. It gave me a reason to look up when I was struggling to find happiness looking down.

​

My work isn’t just about capturing beauty; it is about ensuring our youth are heard and providing them a safe path forward. I learned how this practice could save me, and now I am dedicated to showing how it can change the lives of others. To anyone sitting in silence without an advocate: I’ve got you.

Our Mission

​

Building on the success of the Pinehouse Photography Club, we are a mission-driven non-profit dedicated to championing mental health and well-being. We utilize the transformative power of Therapeutic Photography and the Law of Attraction, using the unparalleled awe of the Northern Lights as the ultimate visual tool for healing and prevention.

​

We are dedicated to empowering individuals from diverse backgrounds, encompassing Métis, Cree, and people of all ages. We nurture a supportive community that fosters:

​

  • Healing & Self-Expression: Providing solace through therapeutic, self-expressive practices.

  • Youth Advocacy: Giving young people a safe, creative alternative to prevent depression and ensure their voices are heard and valued.

  • Personal Growth: Guiding individuals from despair to hope and from adversity to empowerment.

  • Visual Manifestation: Using high-impact visual anchors to promote mental well-being and resilience.
