Mike Ambach Photography

I was born and raised in the interior region of British Columbia, Canada. I studied in Fine Arts, Education, and Environmental Studies, and traveled a fair bit. After living in Montreal for several years, I moved back west to British Columbia, where I now work and play in the beautiful Northwest. I shoot both digital and film, including medium format film. I have a soft spot for the magic of film.


I practice photography as often as I can. Usually with my dog.


I like all kinds of photography, but I am particularly drawn to photographing places that evoke a strong sense of identity and character, or sites that otherwise suggest stories or evidence of human use and history. I am curious about the relationship between humans and nature, and all the fascinating stories that mediate that relationship.
