A winner of multiple National Magazine Awards in both Documentary and Portrait photography, Derek Shapton’s particular specialty is working with non-professional talent in existing spaces,

With over 20 years experience, he has honed his unique style for a broad range of blue-chip clients, from FedEx and Manulife to Acura, Mercedes-Benz, and Bayer, among many others. Relaxed and easygoing, he has a knack for putting subjects - - and clients - - quickly at ease.

Derek is calm, friendly, and confident. He has no dietary restrictions, but does have a fully valid US work visa. He is represented in Canada by Westside Studio
