Scott C Bakken

Hi, I’m Scott - and I’m so glad you’re here. If you’ve landed on this page, chances are you’re curious about the journey that’s shaped me. There’s 47 years of life behind this story - and while I’ll save the full version for a future book, here’s the heart of it.

I don’t have all the answers. But one thing I know for sure: I’m on a search - a search for what it means to be happy, successful, and ultimately fulfilled.If that resonates with you, then welcome - you’re in the right place.

As a father of two and someone recently separated after 23 years of marriage, I can honestly say my heart is open - open to learning, living, and growing in a whole new way.

Since 2011, I’ve been creating content that’s opened doors I never imagined - opportunities to travel the world, work with incredible brands, and connect with inspiring people.

Through that journey, I built a career as a full-time photographer and storyteller. I also founded Socality, a creative community rooted in connection, belonging, and purpose. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of partnering with world-class brands like Canon, Rogers, Amex, Ford, Travel Alberta  and more - telling stories that move people and celebrate the human spirit.

But now, a new story is being written.

This next chapter isn’t about starting over. It’s about rebuilding - with intention, honesty, and hope.

I’m on a mission to discover what it truly means to live fully - emotionally, physically, and relationally. Through travel, creativity, fatherhood, faith, and meaningful connection, I’m learning to build a life of purpose and joy - for myself, for my kids, and for anyone navigating life’s in-between spaces.

Creating spaces of belonging and depth is what drives me - and this platform is one of them.

So if you’re here, I want to invite you into the journey. There are so many ways you can join in this journey and community.  Follow me on my channels or sign up for my newsletter and let’s ask better questions, share real stories, and explore what it really means to be whole.

We all have a story.
We all carry something.
And we all have the power to turn it into something beautiful.
Welcome to mine. I’m honored to walk this road with you.
