Writing & Photography

 

Welcome to Word Flight and Light.


My name is Rebecca St. Pierre. Nature is my muse and mentor, inspiring beauty, grace and passion in my stories, poetry, photography, and digital composite images.

Thanks for visiting my website.

I’m a Canadian creative capturing stories and emotions in words and pixels on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Lūnaapéewak and Chonnonton Nations in London, Ontario, Canada.

Creativity fuels my spirit.

Nature nurtures my soul.

I abandoned a science career to pursue my passion for writing and photography.  It was a leap of faith that I've never regretted. More than 15 years later, I'm still developing new ways to express emotion through stories, poetry, and images.

 

My words are in magazines, on websites, and in a book.

You'll find my digital composite images on magazine covers,

and my photography as a mural and traffic signal box wraps in London, Ontario.

I am the Feature Artist of the June 2025 issue of Blank Spaces Magazine,

and the Featured Photographer of the Fall 2025 issue of the award-winning environmental magazine ON Nature.

 

Photography Portfolio

 

I see the world through the lens of my camera. No creature is too small or landscape too large. My love of the natural world increases with each photograph I take and composite artwork that I create from my images - I don't use generative AI.  It starts with light... the long shadows of winter, brilliance of summer, golden filter of autumn, and soft rays of spring bring endless possibilities of creativity. I remain hopeful my work will encourage protection of rapidly disappearing ecosystems and make people pause and reflect on how Nature is interconnected, interdependent and indispensable.

I'm honoured and thrilled to have my composite image Where Sacred Dwells on display in the 2026 Art à la Carte exhibition in the In Camera Dining Room at the Ontario Legislative Building in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Writing Portfolio

Writing has been my constant friend since my youth. Words help me heal, grow and process the challenges of life. Whether it's short fiction, poetry (especially haiku), business reports, grant applications, copy or a magazine article, carefully crafting emotive sentences to "show, don't tell" brings happiness and fulfillment. It's about selecting the correct word, tightening sentences and listening to the flow of the phrases as they nearly take flight off the page,
