- Notice biographique
- Ballantyne was the daughter of James Ballantyne, a Scottish immigrant to Ottawa. Her father was an important amateur photographer in his adopted city, and it seems likely that Ballantyne learned the art of photography from him. Ballantyne took many photographs of her life in Ottawa, both candid family shots and more artistic photographs of the Canadian landscape. She was the Vice-President of the Ottawa Camera Club from 1898-1899, and her work can be found in the "James Ballantyne Fonds" in the Public Archives of Canada.
