Telling stories from the heart... telling stories that matter.
Billi J. Miller is an author, photographer, speaker, and storyteller from east-central Alberta, Canada.
In 2010, she traded city traffic for gravel roads when she married a fourth-generation farmer and moved to a 100-year-old prairie farm — a shift that changed everything.
When Billi first arrived, she noticed few photos or stories that captured the modest fortitude and beauty of prairie women — the ones who held up farms, families, and communities on their backs. With a deep respect for their strength, she began photographing and documenting their lives.
Her work blossomed into two acclaimed books celebrating the contributions of Canadian farm women, earning her national recognition on CBC, Global TV, City TV, and in numerous publications across North America.
Today, Billi continues to do what she does best: sharing heartfelt stories about extraordinary people who rarely receive the recognition they deserve – who are the backbone of their communities.
Through her writing, photography, and speaking, she captures the humanity + inspiration of rural life — and soon, through her growing series of courses+workshops she teaches others to do the same.
Her online courses and storytelling tools invite people to pause, reflect, and rediscover their own voice — to see that the soil we're planted in often holds more magic than we realize.
Whether she's behind the camera, on stage, or creating from her farmhouse kitchen table,
Billi's purpose is simple and steadfast:
​
-
To tell stories that matter
-
To create connection through real, human stories
-
And to remind us all that beauty lives right where we are.
