Meaghan Kent is now an established local, full-time lifestyle photographer, six years after getting into photography as a hobby. Originally, she took photos as a way of improving her travel blog, The North Junction. “I had strong, written posts that were performing well online and getting great exposure, but I didn’t have strong, powerful photos to match the writing,” Kent told Sault This Week. “So after I bought my first DSLR in 2015, I turned to YouTube to learn how to use that camera. By July of 2016, I launched Meaghan Kent Photography because my then full-time job was falling on uncertain times and I needed a backup in case I lost my job.”
