About Charné
[ shar-NAE]
An award-winning commercial photographer with more than a decade of experience, I specialize in food, beverage, product, and stop motion photography. I am known for producing carefully crafted images that combine technical precision and a unique creative style. Drawing on extensive experience in lighting, styling, and prop selection, I create striking still images and dynamic stop motions that showcase products at their finest.
I collaborate closely with creative teams, agencies, and in-house marketing teams to produce intentional, brand-focused visuals for both digital and print media. Every project is guided by collaboration and careful attention to detail.
Based in British Columbia, I’m available for projects throughout Canada and internationally.
I respectfully acknowledge that Charné Baird Photography is situated on the unceded traditional territory of the Ktunaxa Nation. Ȼaqahak (Fernie) is located within Qukin ʔamakʔis, the “Land of the Raven”, which is the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of Yaq̓it ʔa·knuqⱡi’it. I am grateful for the privilege of living and working within these vast lands.
