Chuck Groot

Chuck Groot’s credentials as a professional photographer, teacher and entrepreneur are noteworthy. His work demonstrates both artistic composition and rapport with people. Mr. Groot won his first national award, the Canadian Amateur Medal, at the age of fifteen, doing an expose on pollution. From there, he has gone on to win acclaim for his photography in Canada, The United States, Japan, Australia and Europe, accumulating over 50 national and international titles. Chuck has his Fellow of the Professional Photographers of British Columbia (F/PPABC), which is the highest award honoring photographers in British Columbia. He is one of few photographers in Canada who has earned the prestigious Master of Photographic Arts degree (MPA). As well, Kodak has presented him with two of their Gallery Awards for Excellence. He was the youngest photographer to be invited to join the American Society of Photographers. He feels particularly blessed having been able to study with some of the finest photographers in the world: Josef Karsh, Arnold Newman, Monte Zucker, Jason Hailey, Frank Cricchio and his father, John Groot.
