About

I (Sean McCormick) am a lifelong Albertan who prefers towns to cities, cats to dogs, books to sports, and tea to coffee. My obsession began at age five when my grandmother gave me a No. 2 Brownie. It was a tactical error on her part; the resulting film and processing costs nearly drove her into bankruptcy over the next two years.

Fifty-two years later, I still own that Brownie, along with a large collection of antique film cameras and 35mm SLRs. These days, you can usually find me wandering the walking trails in Strathmore, Alberta, with at least one camera in hand—much to the chagrin of the local waterfowl, who wish I would just bugger off.

I am a graduate of the New York Institute of Photography and have worked as a wedding and portrait photographer in the past. I've since returned to my roots as a dedicated hobbyist. As such, I politely decline all requests to photograph events, groups, or individuals. The professional work occasionally seen in my portfolio remains there strictly for sentimental reasons.

Only a very small sampling of my photography is available through this site. To explore the rest of my work, visit my Linktree..

Regarding this site, aside from photography, my next favourite activity is paddling on lakes and rivers. It brings me peace. Even better, you can use a camera on the water and I do. You can see the results here. I hope you enjoy the images as much as I enjoyed creating them.
