Fireline Magazine

Government of Yukon – Community Services

In 2022, 2023 and 2024 we had the opportunity to work on Fireline magazine—which offers a look back at each year’s fire season in the Yukon and tells the stories of the people, events, research, and so much more that many may not know about.

This is a feature of three cover images of Fireline magazine. On the left side is a pair of firefighters climbing a hillside with some burnt and yellowing trees. In the center is a silhouette of a firefighter in a smoky scene as though a fire has only just gone out. On the right side is someone peering out of a watchtower, keeping a close eye on the landscape around them. They are images that would definitely make you want to pick up each of the magazines.

Covers of the 2022, 2023 and 2024 editions.

Two sample interior pages. On the left side is a question and answer feature with a large photo of a firefighter, along with some text on an orange background. On the right side is another feature, this time about aspen trees, where the left photo is blended into a black background with white overlaid text, while the right side is a white background with three feature images and a column of text. I apologize if this description is dull. Two interior sample pages, On the left side is a feature with some patches and the text 'Fire season in review', along with some aerial photos. On the right side is an article about Wildfire art with some beautiful beaded artwork, with a photo alongside of a firefighter walking along a burning area.

One of the highlights of working on the magazines to date has been the incredible photography. A lot of it by Haley Ritchie, but also some fantastic shots captured out in the field by some people with a talented eye for composition. It makes working on the layout an absolute pleasure.
