I'm Amy Bibiana Hanfstingl, Photographer, Designer and Artist based in the Okanagan Valley.

As an artist, wildlife photographer, and designer, my work is rooted in a deep respect for the natural world and a passion for craftsmanship. Whether capturing the intricate details of animals through photography and drawing or designing custom furniture and interiors, my goal is to inspire meaningful connections—between people and nature, between art and function, and between vision and reality.

I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts and have been awarded the B.C. Arts Council Scholarship twice for my artistic achievements. My background includes a design internship in Paris with Team Creatif, where I refined my skills in visual storytelling and creative problem-solving. Now, I apply that expertise across multiple disciplines, from wildlife art to custom furniture design.

Through my wildlife art and photography, I invite viewers to take a closer, more intimate look at the creatures that share our world. Each line, shadow, and detail in my drawings serves as a bridge, connecting the viewer not only to the animal but also to the broader environmental challenges they face. I hope to awaken a sense of wonder and empathy, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the fragile ecosystems we are all a part of.

In my design work, I bring the same level of precision and intentionality, creating thoughtful, high-quality spaces and custom furniture. As a skilled CAD drafter and 3D rendering artist, I help bring ideas to life, whether for bespoke interiors, handcrafted furniture, or clients needing detailed blueprints. I also co-run Loft and Bunk, a custom furniture company that I operate with my family, where we focus on high-end craftsmanship and design tailored to individual needs.

Beyond my artwork and design, I also offer professional photography services, including product photography, interior photography, and branding shoots. I work closely with clients to create images that truly capture their vision—whether for their business, personal brand, or creative projects. If you're looking for custom photography that reflects your unique style and needs, I’d love to collaborate.

Ultimately, my work—whether on paper, through the lens, or in a physical space—is about storytelling. It’s about fostering connections, sparking appreciation, and shaping environments that reflect a deep care for the world around us. By blending art, photography, and design, I strive to create pieces that are not just visually striking but meaningful.
