Pam Costanza | Vancouver Headshots

Pamela Costanza, a Lawyer, Workplace Investigator, and Mediator, knows how to dig deep for the details—she found me thanks to an article written by a past client featuring one of my headshots! She loved the author’s photo so much that she tracked me down as the photographer.
With a new website launch planned for 2025, Pamela wanted fresh, professional headshots to complement her updated branding.
Working with suggestions from her web design team, I made sure the photos perfectly matched the tone and style of her new site.
It’s always fun to be part of a project that brings someone’s brand to life!

“If you, like me, hate getting your picture taken, Belle Ancell can make the experience so much better than you expect. She was kind and patient and I learned a thing or two about working with nervous clients!”

Working with Trevor Loke to update his headshots was a lovely reunion.

Vancouver Family Portraits, Jericho Beach Park

This family always brings a mix of adorableness and a little chaos to their family sessions—and that’s exactly why I love photographing them! Their ability to let loose and have fun always results in the most authentic and heartwarming photos.
For this year’s photos at Jericho Beach in Vancouver, they came dressed in matching red and grey outfits, with their lovable pup happily tagging along.
To see more of the delightful moments we’ve captured together - check out some of their past sessions HERE.

Stephen Irving | Vancouver Headshots

Stephen Irving and I crossed paths at Canada's 2SLGBTQI+ Chamber of Commerce (CGLCC) Symposium in September, where our deep conversation sparked this creative collaboration.
I loved capturing these urban headshots with Stephen while strolling through our mutual neighbourhood—it was such a fun session!
In return, Stephen shared his marketing expertise to help me refine my website and better connect with clients who truly align with my work.

Janice Duddy Consulting | Vancouver Headshots

My FAV portrait from an absolutely delightful session with Janice Duddy creating images for her consulting business WEBSITE.

“Belle was a super person to work with and a very talented photographer. My partner and I needed to update our professional headshots (to reflect our more mature selves :)) and she made the experience pleasant and even fun. She was responsive and we got our images in a very timely manner. We would highly recommend Belle! Thank you Belle the photos look great!”

Dr. Elisabeth Baerg Hall | Vancouver Headshots

Working with Dr. Elisabeth Baerg Hall again was a delightful experience.
As an expert in adult ADHD, an educator, and sought-after speaker, Elisabeth brings warmth and energy to everything she does. Her thoughtful outfit choices and collaborative spirit made capturing her vibrant personality a joy. She shows how a great headshot can be both approachable and professional.
I’m thrilled with the images we created together to support her work at The ADHD Centre for Education & Training and as a Clinical Professor at the University of British Columbia.
