Ian Ward
Photographer


Ian is a Winnipeg-based photographer who specializes in landscape andnative plant photography. A career glass-blower, Ian spends as much time as possible outdoors-year-round-with camera in tow. His body of workreflects his travels throughout Manitoba and in the Rocky Mountains. Ian's beautifully shot landscapes and plant photography bodes well for Heartland. His work in Pelicans to Polar Bears, Exploring the Fur Trade Routes of North America and The Great Lake greatly contributed to the books' nominations for Best Illustrated Book of the Year (with the first two taking the honor).His most recent assignment with Heartland was shooting the Queen's royal visit in October 2002 for the upcoming Crossroads of the Continent (May 2003).

A particular passion of Ian's is seeking out and photographing nativeorchids. This splendid flower, found in pockets of Tall Grass Prairie,has a simple and striking form, growing in a variety of colors from yellow, to rose, to white, both pure and mottled. Ian's perseverence and technical proficency has resulted in a large collection of this delicate species.
