Vancouver’s Port – Hidden Industries

Vancouver’s ports are a striking feature of the city’s landscape, yet the industry itself remains largely removed from public awareness. The Port of Vancouver, Canada’s largest, plays a vital role in the global economy, constantly importing and exporting cars, food, and merchandise on a massive scale.

In 2020, I was hired by SAAM Towage to capture their essential work in navigating and supporting this bustling maritime hub. This experience has inspired me to delve deeper into the port’s industries. Through this project, I aim to document more of the stories and operations that unfold behind the scenes, shedding light on an often-overlooked side of the city.
