V. Tony Hauser is recognized as one of Canada’s leading portrait photographers. Over his forty year career he has honed his craft as a specialist in black and white printing.  He chooses to work in black and white for both its aesthetic qualities and permanence. Hauser's images are predominantly silver prints, but he also offers the hand-coated platinum portrait to clients who want a truly unique and timeless heirloom.

His photographs are included in permanent collections of the National Archives of Canada, the Stratford Festival, the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography and numerous private collections around the world.

His reputation for excellence has garnered his acceptance into the fine art world. He has several bodies of work, including nudes, travel, dance, and indigenous peoples. Most of his fine art work is in platinum - the most permanent and luminous of the photographic processes. Working with antique large-format cameras has provided Hauser with ever-changing challenges, helping to keep his work and enthusiasm fresh. For information on Hauser's five published works, please follow the "BOOKS" link above.

His work has been exhibited internationally in such venues as: The National Arts Centre, Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts, The Banff School of Fine Arts, The University of California, The Brooks Institute of Photography, The Art Gallery at Canada House in London, England, The Hamburg State Opera in Germany, the National Museum of Culture in Quito, Ecuador, just to name a few.
