Meet Lonnie Wishart

Lonnie Wishart grew up on the prairies in the heart of Canadian farmland. Those years were formative for her. She developed a sense of appreciation of the land that feeds the country and a strong bond with animals (farm animals and pets alike) that continues to today.

Lonnie worked in media for many years: television, radio and newspapers. She eventually landed in Prince Rupert and began doing photography as a part-time side business which turned into a full-fledged business in commercial and art photography in 1999. Since that time she has worked with a variety of clients in many different capacities producing photographs ranging from personal portraits to landscapes to industrial equipment. Lonnie can find beauty in just about everything and delights in capturing that on film or in print. Her work also gives her many opportunities to be involved in some of the most special events of people's lives.

Lonnie puts much of her time into her business, learning and educating herself. Outside of business, she likes to spend time with her family, work in her garden and play with her beloved critters. Community service also plays a significant role in her life. She is heavily involved in Prince Rupert Crime Stoppers. She believes that serving in a small community has more impact than in a big city because what you do affects and benefits people more closely in a small town.
