The Baldwins were professional photographers active in Campbell River from 1948 to 1964. Their relationship with the local newspaper meant that they were there to document everything happening in Campbell River during those years. The Museum has thousands of their photographs and negatives in our archives. This video explores who the Baldwins were, and how they became such a big part of the community.
Watch here for upcoming videos exploring various aspects of their work!
