In June of 2018, I returned to Canada after living in S.E. Asia for 5 years, being based primarily in Cambodia. I went to Abu Dhabi in December 2019, and due to the Corona virus situation, remained there until the end of August 2020! I am currently back in Canada, based in Alberta happily shooting for clients, writing the book chronicling the journey in Asia, and making marble sculptures! In that time in Cambodia, I experienced life in its rawest and grittiest forms, as only third world conditions can expose you to. I felt the elation of witnessing hope being given to the most vulnerable members of any society, its poor and its children. From this new found hope sprung successes as these fresh opportunities for education were utilized. Of course, I also witnessed pain and suffering. It was on display in the faces of those who’s hope had been lost after enduring lifetimes of toil and hardship, including civil war and genocide. These events, and factors of all sorts will have them mired in poverty for generations to come. In my time there, I worked with grass roots organizations that were bringing hope to those vulnerable humans. These generous souls were opening up the world of education to people who had previously been left unserved by their system. In addition to providing ongoing photo documentation, educational films and successful promotional films were produced. I also spent over half a year writing and photographing for a startup newspaper, starting as a fill in copy writer and was promoted to a staff position.A documentary film covering one of the individual international fundraisers had its final post-production completed upon my return to Canada and is currently in submission to international film festivals. After being away for five years, the prairie winter has taken on a new look to me, as it seems new again. I have been very inspired to capture the rural life that I am experiencing, both for myself and for my friends abroad, who simply cannot understand how it is that we can actually live in conditions like these.Otherwise it is still business as usual, doing photo and video projects for clients here in Canada. In this challenging economy, it is still vital to be represented in professional images and presentations. We are looking forward to the opportunity to work with you and your team.

Business OwnerBrad Callihoo Photography 1990 - PresentEdmonton, Canada Area Phnom Penh, CambodiaI have been a freelance Commercial Photographer since 1990, establishing a wide ranging client base in a diverse range of genres including; Architectural, Editorial, Food, Industrial, Portraiture and even the occasional wedding. Video productions with Industrial clients are another service provided, and my previous field experience has proven very beneficial in these situations. A life changing accident occurred in August of 2004, forcing me to distance myself from the photo studio for a period. During this time I pursued other interests but always, always kept shooting to keep my skills honed and my mind sharply attuned to lighting conditions.In 2013, I moved to Phnom Penh, Cambodia where I have been expanding my client base, producing books and videos for local clients. Another activity I have been participating in since relocating is to volunteer with Choice Cambodia, a local charity.

Sales And MarketingTrac Engine Services Ltd. Mar 2007 - Sep 2010Edmonton, Canada AreaIn 2007, I took a position with Trac Engine Services to establish the sales and marketing department. I was in recovery from a serious accident and was not permitted to be actively involved in my photo business. Trac Engine Services had not had a sales person in the past, nor did it have any presence on the Internet. I established a database of clients and potential clients and called on these industrial contacts ranging from Red Deer, AB all the way to High Level, AB. To bring the company into the technological age, I worked closely with the webpage designer to produce a very informative web page. I also produced the video and photo content used on the site, as well as a short infomercial for use in the sales department.
