An exhibition of Sci Fi themed images by Wayne A Hoecherl.
December 21 – March 23
Opening Reception Thursday December 21, 4:30 – 6:30pm
The work encompassed in this show was made entirely using my various IPhones.
I call the body of work the SciPhone Series.
The images are never preplanned. The work is always Sci Fi themed.
In October of 2017 I started creating the images. In 6 years I have
managed to create over 800 individual images.
One of my favourite things about creating the images on my mobile
phone is that I can create any time and any place.
Although the images are quite far from traditional photography,
they are always informed by my 40 years as a photographer.

Photography by Hans Sipma
An exhibition of some of Vancouver’s most famous, and least known bands from the 70’s and 80’s
Hans Sipma began photographing musicians in the 1970’s, often in a borrowed department store studio (first The Bay, later Eaton’s) where by day, he shot everything from fashion to furniture. His after-hours work brought him to the attention of Vancouver talent agents like Bruce Allen and Sam Feldman, and through them, to soon-to-be legends like Bryan Adams, Doug & the Slugs and Trooper. The budgets were small, the hair was big, and digital didn’t exist, so “making it work” took a lot of late nights and a lot of ingenuity. Hans hopes you enjoy this look back at the boys in the bands – some famous, some forgotten, all part of Vancouver music history.

Cabinet of Curiosities - An Exhibition of Analogue Images - POSTPONED
2020-04-15 18:00 - 20:00 | Science World, 1455 Quebec Street, Vancouver, BC, V6A 3Z7, Canada
Cabinets of Curiosities, also called Wunderkammer or wonder rooms, originated in the mid 16th century as collections of mysterious items of significance; oddities, relics, antiquities, archaeological or geological finds, anything that fascinated and inspired scientific or artistic exploration. They reflected the interests and thought processes of the people who collected and put objects on display. Cabinets of Curiosities were the precursors to modern museums; private collections became public as scientific study evolved, and people could discover wondrous objects they had never before seen.
This group exhibition aims to bring together a collection of objects that the artists find fascinating. These images have been produced using different analogue photographic processes, some dating back to the 1840s. The hands on approach to image making allows these artists to create objects that are imbued with their spirit and emotion, and put on display for the curious to discover.
If you’d like to submit an image for this exhibition, please see the full Cabinet of Curiosities Exhibit page here: https://www.beauphoto.com/cabinet/
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Join Us For The Opening of Cabinet of Curiosities.
POSTPONED!! Stay tuned for more info.

See the collection of images and meet some interesting people. Some of the artists will be present to talk to you about their curiosities and the processes they used to produce their images. Try creating your own curious images at the photo booth, or have a photo made on 8×10 Polaroid instant film. No admission fees for opening night; access is to the exhibition only.
This Cabinet of Curiosities event is part of the Capture Photography Festival.

Artist Talk - Trevor Martin
2020-02-15 11:00 - 12:30 | Beau Photo Shop, 110 - 1401 West 8th Ave, Vancouver, B.C., V6H 1C9, Canada
We have a great new show up in the Beau Gallery at the store – Photographs of England by Trevor Martin. Join us Saturday, February 15th from 11am – 12:30pm for an artist talk with Trevor as he speaks about his photographic work and printing in the darkroom for the past few decades.
A bit more about Trevor’s work…
Trevor Martin is a master photographic printer and photographer, and long-time resident of Vancouver. He began to photograph in 1960 in the UK and moved to Vancouver from Cornwall, England in 1969. Since he started, he has created a collection of thousands of silver print black and white photographs of England, Canada, and around the world.
Trevor has worked in photographic sales in the UK and Canada. In 1990, he opened a custom black and white photographic printing service in Vancouver for advanced amateurs and professionals. Many of his clients have appeared in books and magazines as well as exhibitions and private collections, including Library and Archives Canada. He rarely leaves home without a camera. Since arriving in Vancouver in 1969, his many excursions in the city with camera in hand has resulted in several thousand images whose numbers are added to each year. Over the course of his photographic career, he has also accumulated many images of the Canadian Prairies, his home county of Cornwall in England, the American Southwest as well as Paris, Rome, and Sicily.
This exhibition of 18 photographs are the first to be printed after a review of his work in England, and especially of his home county of Cornwall, that date from 1960’s to the 1990’s.
Trevor thanks Beau Photo for this opportunity.

Travel Photography with National Geographic Photographer Massimo Bassano
2020-01-18 11:00 - 12:30 | Beau Photo Shop, 110 - 1401 West 8th Ave, Vancouver, B.C., V6H 1C9, Canada
Massimo started his career in the photography field thanks to his ocean and sailing knowledge. He got a job as a fixer for a National Geographic cover story about Christopher Columbus. Such an opportunity opened a new vision for his career path, and so he decided to become documentary photographer for the Society. In this way, his passion for human culture, history and wildlife became the reason to explore the planet on land and not just on the ocean. After 30 years and 83 countries explored for National Geographic, he still loves to travel and explore, even more than before. His passion for photography is the key to opening connections with people and Mother Nature. Massimo loves to photograph the truth. As documentary photographer, he always tries to photograph the reality of how it is. Trying to transform that into an image is what attracts him. Whether it be people or wildlife it does not make a difference – he loves everything. From a crowded square, packed with people, to the silence of the ice pack in Antarctica watching a lazy leopard seal.
Massimo learned by working for photographers in the field so he loves to teach and to give back what he’s learned, and share what made him world famous. “Looking at the planet through a lens is one of the best ways to travel and explore new places. A camera does not just immortalize your memories, but it also immerses you into a situation that you would not normally look for.” – says Massimo.
This talk will cover the following topics in regards to travel photography:
1- Why travel with a camera
2- Planning a photography trip at your desk. Day by day, permissions and more
3- Researching and studying
4- Gear and packing
5- Storytelling…that’s the way
6- Captioning to enrich the message
7- Showing the results to an audience (getting feedback)

There is no better subject for a photographer than sports. Action, winners, losers, raw emotion; they are all on full display, and make great pictures. Christopher Morris will talk about his experiences shooting the Olympics, Pan American games, Stanley Cup finals, World Cup soccer, baseball, the most prestigious and high pressure assignment of them all, his daughter’s soccer, and more. Come hear the story behind the pictures, and how they are made. With his recent experience shooting for Team Canada at the Pan-Am Games in Lima, Peru, Chris will talk about the planning, preparation, and shooting of a major sports event. Learn what goes in to the making of compelling sports photos with ideas, tips, and a look behind the scenes.
“I live in Vancouver, Canada. I have been a photographer for thirty years and have worked with many clients, in many places, on many assignments, and occasionally, winning an award. With me in Vancouver are my wife Lara, daughters Caitlin and Paige, and dog Scout, all of whom like walking on the beach. There are lots of beaches in Vancouver so everybody is very happy. Scout likes to chase sticks at the beach, Lara and the girls don’t.”

Have you ever looked at a photograph in someone’s portfolio or a magazine and wondered how it was lit? In this workshop I will go though all of the clues that can give you the answer, showing you how you can read the photograph. How many lights? What sort of modifiers? What was the direction and placement of lights? You will learn how to answer these questions for yourself and use this information to enhance and inform your own photography, inspiring you to take your images to the next level. I have been working in photography for over 20 years. I work as a Photographer, Photo-illustrator and Educator. I specialize in photographing people. I have shot Advertising, Fashion, Editorial, Music and Film.
