Margot Cheel is an award-winning aerial photographer whose work has been exhibited in New England, South Florida and Ontario Canada.

Cheel received her Bachelor of Arts from Middlebury College, Vermont, and worked in production at WGBH-TV in Boston. She is also the co-founder the Twin Willows Arts and Craft Center in Ontario, Canada.
