WILDFLOWERS

Mountain writer and historian Meghan J. Ward recruits a team of creative women to revisit Mary Schäffer Warren’s 1908 expedition to Maligne Lake, in Alberta’s Jasper National Park. Blending backcountry adventures with historical research, Wildflowers demonstrates that sometimes we must look back to blaze a better trail forward.

I was the Director of Photography and Editor on this wonderful project, which took me deep into the backcountry of the Canadian Rockies with this adventurous group of female mountain writers. I later spent many months crafting the story alongside co-Directors Trixie Pacis & Meghan Ward, and a team of artists and animators that brought Mary Schaffer’s historic photographs to life.

Wildflowers premiered at Banff Mountain Film Festival in 2024, and has been selected at Kendal Mountain Festival, Whistler Film Festival, SOAR Film Festival, among others.
