VANCOUVER
STREET PHOTOGRAPHY COLLECTIVE

Highlight

July 2025 Photowalk

Exploring Strathcona

For July’s photowalk, we explored Strathcona—Vancouver’s oldest neighbourhood and a place with a rich history that’s deeply shaped the city. Before heading out, the group got a quick intro to the area’s background, setting the stage for a walk through its quiet streets, character homes, and layered past.

Seize the Light 2025

Annually, we take to the streets for a cause. Seize the Light is an event where photographers capture photos every hour and post one of those photo every hour to Instagram—all in support of the Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre. It’s a creative marathon that pushes our limits, builds community, and raises vital funds for an essential organization. Explore highlights from challenge and learn how you can get involved.

Annual VanSPC Zines

Twice a year, we bring our collective vision to print. Our annual zines are a curated collection of photographs from across the collective—each image a reflection of the streets we walk and the stories we uncover. Thoughtfully designed and beautifully printed, the zines captures the spirit and diversity of our community. Explore the latest editions and see the city through our eyes.

Upcoming

Pavement Poetry
Exhibition

Our fall group show, Pavement Poetry, invites you to reflect on the poetic, expressive side of street photography. We’re looking for work that captures the small magic of public space — moments that are layered, surprising, mysterious, or that reveal something deeper than what’s on the surface.
