I’m here to elevate heart-centered business leaders with vibrant, joyful imagery
I understand the dedication behind every business decision. Many small businesses struggle with a brand identity that feels off. Often, your messaging doesn’t align with your visuals. I’ve seen the difference that good images make when attracting your ideal client or customer, and how showing up genuinely and naturally is so much easier when you have your own library of customized images ready and waiting. Not to mention the deep connections that are forged with your audience when they’re shown windows into your brand that are truly representative of your business’s messaging.
Let’s elevate your brand’s story.
I want you to feel confident and joyful showing up
Here’s a little bit about my story… I’m a photographer based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Before I started working as a photographer for small businesses, I was working AT small businesses.
From working at PR agencies in London UK, to moving to Canada in 2015 and working at a business accelerator, I really get what it’s like on all sides of building, promoting and running small businesses.
Outside of photography, you’ll find me walking my dog, running in Vancouver’s forests, connecting with my family around the world, or trying new recipes.
A few things I love
Connecting with family from around the world (I have family across 8 countries and counting!) ~ picnics ~ watching my dog run around with wild abandon ~ collecting and nurturing tropical plants for my home ~ local circular economy groups (such a fun way to give and re-own things) ~ yellow, green and blue ~ circles, patterns and bright colours ~ being in nature and touching trees ~ reading fiction books ~ my always on-point Spotify discover weekly playlist.
“Maxine is both professional and friendly - her intake questions and checklist made it easy for me to prepare for the photoshoot. Although being in front of a camera is out of my comfort zone, Maxine made me feel comfortable, and I had a lot of fun. She is a joy to work with!”

“When it came time for the shoot, Maxine was such a JOY. She captured our brand essence beautifully, leaving us with a range of portraits and value-shots that are already incredibly valuable for re-positioning our impact consulting business! So thrilled to have you in our court!”
Brianna
“As someone much more comfortable behind the scenes, being photographed usually makes me feel awkward and weird, but Maxine has a wonderful way of making folks feel special and highly photogenic. It's a fantastic quality and I recommend her for business portraits with a full heart.”
