I'm Maiya (like the month of may)
Hello friends! I'm so glad you're here!
I’m a year-round ocean swimmer, lover of whale watching, thrifting fanatic, and I feel most at home near the ocean and I will ALWAYS say yes to hiking a mountain or wandering through a forest!
I’m a champ at all-you-can-eat sushi and I’ve watched Grey's Anatomy, Gilmore Girls, and Criminal Minds an embarrassing number of times.
Like most adventurous Vancouver photographers- you'll usually find me in a Patagonia fleece with Blundstone/ Birkenstocks on my feet and too many cameras in my hands!
Weddings and elopements are incredibly important to me because they are such a celebration of life and love. My goal going into every wedding is to photograph it with heart. To make you feel as comfortable as possible, and to tell your story in a way that you can look back and go, “that photo reminds me of exactly how that felt”.
Where can you find me?
I'm based out of North Vancouver but I travel all over! I feel so incredibly fortunate to photograph weddings and elopements all over BC, Canada. and beyond. I spend most of my summers travelling between Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast, and the Sea to Sky area.
I have a special love for the Pemberton area because my partner is from there and there's something so incredibly special about going up there and getting to photograph love under Mt. Currie.
Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands also hold a special place in my heart because I grew up spending summers exploring the islands and exploring these areas with my couples now fills me with so much joy.
"So when you spend time with your photographs, I hope at least some of them remind you: even if you can't go back to how things were, you can still find where Light poured through"
