Are you ready to be inspired? As a producer for the Ready2Listen Campaign, I had the honour of traveling across the country with Spruce Creative on behalf of Les Femmes Michif Otipemisiwak to capture the powerful voices of Indigenous communities. The campaign's strengths-based approach allowed us to showcase the resilience and beauty of Indigenous Women, Non - Binary and Trans Folks, and I'm excited to share the behind-the-scenes process with you.

As a photographer, traveling light was key. With only a small flash and reflector, I was able to capture stunning portraits that truly showcase the strength and beauty of each person we interviewed. It was a challenge, but I'm thrilled with what we were able to achieve.

But the heart of this campaign is in the voices we captured. From coast to coast, we interviewed rad Indigenous leaders, activists, and artists who shared their powerful stories of resilience and hope. Through this campaign, we hope to inspire and empower Indigenous youth and create a space for their voices to be heard.

Don't just take my word for it, head over to https://celebrateindigenous.ca/ready2listen/ to see more photos and the final videos of the campaign. Get involved and be a part of a movement that celebrates Indigenous voices and perspectives. Are you Ready 2 Listen?
