If you want to find me, there's a good chance that you'll find me near the SEA

I moved to Vancouver, BC over 20 years ago; I convinced people to be my friends, found a nice home close to the water, and settled down here for good. The Aiota Photography studio is located in downtown Vancouver, also a few hundred metres from the ocean

It’s no surprise that I live by the following quote: "The cure for anything is saltwater; sweat, tears, or the sea."

I love fashion, art, and music. Beautiful visuals excite me - textures, colours, shapes, tones, prints & patterns, etc. Music brings me joy - I can experience a whole world and variety of emotions through it. Music tells an emotional story; images tell a visual one. Fashion is expression; the insides turning out, art of the public sphere. I find the world an endless source of inspiration.

I cherish the childish heart inside of me and aim to stay true to that child who desires nothing more than to create. I love to immerse myself in the emotional landscapes of others. In the same way that I would listen to a song, I can feel the feelings of others through their use of language and tone.

I CRIED ON MY WAY HOME JUST REALIZING HOW BEAUTIFUL AND SEXY I AM.

Thank you again for the incredible photoshoot. I had the absolute best day shooting and tonight was surreal to see the photos. I'm always giving, helping, and doing things for others so it was so wonderful to do something for me.

WOW. I feel like I see myself in a different light after this whole experience

I can't express how much your words meant to me at the final viewing and how you saw a beauty in me that I didn't even know how to look for in myself.”

THIS WAS A BIG PUSH FOR ME, I’M SO GLAD I DID IT BECAUSE THOSE PHOTOS ARE BEAUTIFUL AND IT TURNS OUT THAT I CAN TAKE PHOTOS LIKE THAT.

I was really surprised to see myself like that, to be honest I never really felt like I was “good looking” enough or had the perfect body to do a boudoir shoot.

More about Pamela

When I'm not busy working, you can find me digging through racks at small-town thrift stores, listening to my favourite NPR podcasts, obsessing over design and fashion trends, dehydrating and fermenting foods. Or, like a good Pacific Northwestern, setting up camp for a few days somewhere with no cell service.

I love to experiment with everything in life

I prefer my own imagination to any other kind of entertainment.
I'm INTERESTED IN EVERYTHING - really

People describe me as someone who is “interested in everything”. I truly do find the world fascinating, and I get bored with anything too predictable. Absurdity is my favourite!
I'm a child of immigrant parents

This instills a sense of empathy in me. I’m able to deeply respect and understand other perspectives, while still holding my own. I’d like to think I’m open-minded, which is also a defining feature of who I am!
