Vancouver Love Story was born from a conversation with writer, Moira Chicilo, about the survival of local, independent businesses during the time of Covid. We decided to reach out to Vancouverites via social media and ask them three things. We asked them to name a small business they love; we asked why they loved that business; and lastly, we asked what could people do to help that business survive during the Covid shutdown. We received over 120 nominations and learned a lot about our city!

These businesses, in our opinion, represent the heart and soul of our city. These images are our personal love letter to Vancouver.
