Hi I’m Michele Mateus

Vancouver portrait photographer committed to creating photos that are honest, raw and badass. I photograph women, femmes and gender queer folks in my studio or at a chosen location.

Some folks come to celebrate a milestone. Others are cracking open a new chapter. Many are simply curious. Whatever brings someone into my studio, each one arrives having already decided: this one’s for them.

I’m honoured every single time.

You don’t need to know how to pose. You don’t need a big production or a makeover. Just an intention. You’re not a project. You’re the frequency, and I get to tune in and help you feel seen, as art.
