Elijah Beaver

Freelance documentary photographer who captures the human condition through images.

People's beliefs and culture are my particular interest to photograph, which are available to use for newspapers, news websites, and magazines. My childhood on the Driftpile reserve in Alberta allowed me to develop an alternate perspective about the various cultures and beliefs that occupy this world.

Seeing the beauty and uniqueness of my own culture, I am able to see how extraordinary other cultures of the world are around me, which motivates the importance of acquiring it onto images. This has become my passionate manifesto for capturing striking imagery as a photographer.

Graduate of the Vancouver Institute of Media Arts (VanArts) Digital Photography Program.

*Currently enrolled in the Journalism program at SAIT Polytechnic in Calgary, Alberta.
