Photographers
Video production, photography, drone work and corporate AV setup across the Lower Mainland, including a Lansdowne Centre shoot in Richmond.
Wireless microphones, HD projectors, screens and spotlighting are not the usual inventory of a photography company, yet audio-visual setup for corporate events is one of the lines of work here, supplied for the Maple Ridge Chamber of Commerce Momentum Expo. Additional services include real estate floor plans and site surveys. Teaching turns up too: an eight-week after-school filmmaking course at Southpointe Academy took fourth and fifth graders through storytelling, scriptwriting and cinematography.
In Richmond itself, the clearest reference point is Lansdowne Centre. The mall commissioned a three-day photoshoot that produced more than 500 photos, and those images ran on the centre's website and social media and on advertising across the Canada Line SkyTrain and Richmond buses, licensed for mall-wide use over two years. Their own site publishes the Lansdowne Centre case study in full.
Video work covers branding and corporate pieces, real estate video and photography, weddings, shows and community events, drone and aerial footage, and music videos, while photography is listed separately for headshots, events, weddings, drone and real estate. Web development, social media management, content creation and SEO sit alongside them. Strategy, shooting, editing and color grading stay in-house rather than moving between vendors, with grading on every finished piece. Jobs run through discovery, creative development covering scripting, storyboarding and location scouting, production, then delivery. The team is trained in film production, with backgrounds in film, television, marketing and business, and shoots on large cinema cameras rather than a DSLR, owning most of that gear and drawing on more for larger occasions.
Drone flights are described in some detail: DJI aircraft with 4K cameras, 40-minute flight times and RTK centimetre-level positioning. They state that they follow Transport Canada's regulations, keeping aircraft in visual line of sight and below 400 feet and obtaining permits for controlled airspace. Steveston boardwalks, No. 3 Road shops, the Richmond Olympic Oval and Finn Slough appear as filming locations on the company's Richmond pages, one of which covers video marketing in Richmond, and the deliverables named there run to 4K drone facility walkthroughs, captioned 9:16 Instagram Reels and LMS onboarding videos.
For organisations that want channels kept active month after month rather than a single video, the company offers ongoing content partnerships, and it markets to hospitality, dental and medical, construction, real estate and professional services. The service areas named across the site include Richmond, along with Langley, Surrey, Vancouver, Burnaby and the wider Lower Mainland.

From the blog
Longer reads from the editor, with the places worth a detour linked inside them.
The Night Market's final season is the loud story. The quieter one: free admission at the Cannery ends Monday, Britannia keeps summer hours through Sunday, and Steveston does sunsets better than anyone.

Nothing on Alexandra Road is a secret. It is just in a strip mall with bad signage and no patio, which is why visitors never find it. Here is how I actually use Richmond's plazas and food courts, which specialists are worth the drive, and when not to bother.

The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.
