Engrooved Splash is a creative partnership, established in 1996. Michelle had a passion to start a business and Charles liked to play with light.

We started off creating promotional images for musicians, fashion photography, portraiture, and product photography. Working from our small “studio” and closet darkroom within our one-bedroom apartment in Vancouver.

After a few years, as our vision and aspirations grew significantly, we made the decision to relocate to the beautiful Sunshine Coast of British Columbia. 

Once settled there, we took an important step by expanding our business to a retail location. This new space featured a storefront, studio, custom colour darkroom, and a minilab. Once a week, we transformed our studio into a classroom for photography classes. Years passed.

There was a vibrant artistic community on the Sunshine Coast, which inspired us to change our direction. Digital was replacing film and our business was needing a refresh. Archival digital printing was now able to replace our classic darkroom. We expanded our services to include fine art reproductions, custom art card printing, and promotional photography for artisans.

Decades had past, our small Coastal Community had grown to the point that we didn’t recognize it anymore. Change was everywhere around us, so we felt it was time to spread our wings and travel. We explored Canada, top to bottom, side to side and now find ourselves in a peaceful, quiet area of Nova Scotia. 

It is here that you will find us continuing the joyful journey of creativity.
