John James Dutton
John James Dutton is a freelance professional photographer specializing in media relations, commercial photography and other special public relations assignments.
As well as providing custom black and white photofinishing services for area businesses and individual customers, his award winning photojournalism has been featured on a regular basis in a number of regional publications. In addition, he has been published in a variety of national and international publications including BC Report, The Globe and Mail, Calgary Sun, Calgary Herald, San Francisco Bay Area Reporter, Ottawa Sun and Vancouver Province.
A graduate of the School of Modern Photography, John has been involved in photography since the early 1960's. He began his career with a retail photofinishing business in Victoria and then became a commercial photographer specializing in advertising, media relations, portraiture and weddings. During this period, he also served as a columnist/photographer for a number of automotive publications including Drag News and National Dragster (both based in Los Angeles, CA), International Wheelspin News (Toronto, ON), and Road and Motor Sports Magazine (Vancouver).
In 1974, John moved to the East Kootenays and served as a sports editor and staff photographer for two years with a Cranbrook daily newspaper. John joined a regional forest products company as a public relations/communications officer in 1976. He accepted an early retirement offer in 1995 to return to professional photography on a full-time basis and today continues to be actively involved in media relations, commercial photography, black and white processing and special assignments.
John was named a lifetime member of the Cranbrook and District Arts Council in 1995, recognizing his personal contribution and corporate support over two decades to the council. His signature photograph, Monterey Cypress - a fog shrouded image of the famous lone cypress tree on California's Monterey Peninsula - won the City of Cranbrook Award at VisArts 1995.
