James Boyce

James Boyce is a Toronto-based photographer.

In 2017, looking for a new creative outlet, James bought a camera and began documenting the streets of Vancouver. In 2020, at the age of 44, he left the service industry to become a professional photographer, and in 2023 moved to Toronto.

James has always been fascinated by the imagined stories of the people behind the scenes of daily life. Who lives there? What is their life like? What are they thinking? He explores and documents these stories through portraiture and street photography.

James graduated from the Professional Photography program at the Vancouver Institute of Media Arts in 2022. When not wandering the street with his camera, he is often in front of the TV cheering on the Canucks, Blue Jays, Broncos, or Raptors. He loves coffee, heavy metal, and good denim.
