Amélie Légaré
Founder, Creative Director

Spanning two decades, Amélie’s BA in Graphic Communications has led her from design agency and newspaper management roles, to orchestrating detailed photo shoots and design projects for a range of private, government, corporate and media clients—from tourism collateral to environmental reports to municipal communication campaigns. Also a doyenne of magazine creative direction, Amélie has designed publications like Flavours, Wishes and Right Sizing, and curates five separate titles for Mountain Life Media, with whom she has worked for 16 years. Her broad scope of work has garnered numerous awards and industry accolades—most recently a gold in Art Direction at the 2021 National Magazine Awards, and being one of three invited judges to select the NMA’s 2021 and 2022 Magazine of the Year.

Inspired by the natural beauty surrounding her B.C. home, Amélie’s passion for print, typography and photo reproduction are reflected in both her elevated visual design sensibilities and detailed work with clients. An avowed paper nerd, Amélie loves everything about the medium—from its smell, to its versatility, to its sustainable use. Known to enjoy press checks and visits from paper-company reps, her hard-earned knowledge of stock, finishes and printing techniques translates to an unheralded ability to manage suppliers, foresee potential issues, troubleshoot problems and, most importantly, deliver a product of exceptional quality on time and on budget.
