“A passion of mine is bike touring. Our kits are ultra light, the smallest tents, the thinest mats. This fortunately leaves space for my camera to come along.
I love documenting the adventures in the world around me, especially when the weather goes a bit off. This drive for getting the shot on location has lead teams with full lighting rigs up the sides of snowy mountains in Whistler and deep in to forests after the rain. But I’m still a city kid with a love of style. I’ve worked with numerous hair salons, yoga studios and clothing designers to show off what they can do for you in every day life.
I have a background in cinema which gave me a keen eye for story telling, and a love of fashion photography which has kept my aesthetics sharp and contemporary. My ideal photo is true to life, but elevated through photography to make it just a little bit more than real.”

Alex Waber
Vancouver
A day off for Alex is either spent in the mountains or in his studio. And when it's studio, it is spent sculpting with light.
Still life photography has been a passion as long as Alex has been shooting, often working with flowers, old toys or objects he finds wandering through town. He relishes is the textures light can bring out, the shapes and shadows cast, and the colours highlighted.
Over the years he has shot for a number of designers and boutiques in Vancouver and his still life photography has been exhibited up and down the west coast.

Kevin Uy Photography
Vancouver
The last few months’ work has proven to be quite an exciting range of different vehicles ranging from one’s everyday commuter to something that is purely a sight to behold.
Kevin and team took Mitsubishi’s revamped Eclipse Cross to a remote location without a cellphone and GPS signal to highlight its improved navigational technology powered with partner What3words. The next challenge was with a Mercedes-Benz E-class All-Terrain showing its off roading prowess thereby proving it is a great alternative to a conventional SUV.
The more challenging productions are with Koenigsegg and Auto Motibili Pininfarina. Even though the vehicles provided were prototypes, Kevin and the team managed to produce the desired photographs for the OEM to use for their media and promotions.
Currently, Kevin is working on improving photography and videography direction along with preparation for winter photography campaigns.

Title: The One
"This image was taken at the BlackCliff House in British Columbia by Mcleod Bovell Modern Houses. I called it The One as in my mind it represents my own search for that one decisive moment, my search for peace and self exploration.
In 2020 we all were in many ways alone experiencing life in such a different way, I felt this image could represent that pause in life that could be used to reflect on where we are, where we are going and who do we really want to be."

James Alfred Photography
Interiors & exteriors photographers
"Beginning as a multi-disciplinary artist, I have now been working as a commercial architectural photographer across BC since 2006. I love working with passionate designers and want to help them present their best work with my best visual craftsmanship, using all the tools at my disposal to craft the most complimentary and truthfully representative imagery.
In my commercial work, my style is focused on achieving a natural, ambient light look, which I love for its purity, but I also appreciate being able to push things in creative directions when I can. In my personal work, I am drawn to photograph beautiful designs and compositions wherever they are found, especially in nature. I care deeply for the environment and would love to highlight sustainable design - with a special interest in reclaimed and repurposed materials.
I have photographed for the Mint Tiny House Company, MAXXiT Systems, BGIS Canada, Turco Homes, Kalu Interiors, KG Interior Design, Turner Construction, Thibodeau Architecture & Design, Grafton Apparel, Century Group Inc., Seraphim Stoneworks, Positive Space Staging & Design, Kenzi Design House, and Bayside Cabinets."

Alex Waber
Advertising photographers
Alex Waber a fashion, advertising and portrait photographer based out of Vancouver, Canada. Trained in cinematography Alex brings the language of story telling to his photography through lighting design, composition and art direction. With a strong DIY attitude, Alex has built himself two custom studios and that ground up attitude makes its way in to all his projects, be it custom set pieces or hand painted backdrops; a day off is usually spent making a mess in his studio.
A love of music has greatly informed his approach to the creative process, an ideal shoot is full of collaborative energy, ideas bouncing around as we follow the art direction with some good improvisation thrown in to the mix. This has also resulted in many live music events happening out of his space and a number of musician’s portraits which have shown up in articles around the world.
Alex has shot for clients including Arcteryx, Aritzia and Shaw Communications and has had work published internationally in in places like The Guardian, Rolling Stones and The Globe and Mail.
