Early life

Her work has appeared in magazines and newspapers around the world, including the covers of W (Magazine),[3][4] L'Uomo Vogue[5][6][7] and Variety (Magazine).[8] She is best known for shooting the cover and booklet for Drake’s Views (album)[9][10] which became an overnight viral sensation.[11][12][13]

In addition to still photography, Cronenberg has directed several music videos, including "I Got You" by Hollerado[14] and "On Camera" by Hill.[15] In 2017 Cronenberg was hired by Apple Inc to shoot portraits of Canadians across the country for the first ever "Shot on iPhone" campaign created specifically for Canada.[16] That same year, Cronenberg photographed the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for the cover of Delta Sky Magazine.[17]
