Marie Sedivy has been a photographer since 1986 when as a writer for her university newspaper she began to photograph the events and stories she was covering. What started as a hobby has flourished over time to become her profession. Marie is now a member of the Alberta Professional Photographers Association (APPA) and the Professional Photographers of Canada (PPOC).

Marie has lived in Edmonton since 1991. Born in Czechoslovakia, she came to Alberta via Austria, Italy, Quebec, and Ontario. She credits her diverse background with her ability to integrate various photographic styles, her interest in a broad range of subject matter, and her tendency to look for innovative ways of depicting her subjects.

Marie's images convey a strong sense of composition, line, perspective, and color. Her creativity and playfulness are also conveyed in her photographs.
