Only a few days left to enter our Sereia Day Spa Giveaway! 🎉 I wanted to share the little brand story that inspired this collaboration with so many incredible local businesses. It was such a pleasure creating this video with my friend Amanda, the owner of Sereia Day Spa. Her passion for caring for people and building something special here in the Comox Valley is truly inspiring. It’s one of my favourite parts of what I do—meeting amazing local business owners and, over time, being lucky enough to call many of them friends. This little film was a labour of love, and I hope you enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed making it. ❤️ And don’t forget... there’s still time to enter the giveaway! You could win some incredible prizes while supporting some fantastic local businesses. Good luck! ✨ by @hometowncreative_insta

A few screen grabs from an incredible day filming at the Jeffrey Rubinoff Sculpture Park on Hornby Island. 🎥✨ This year’s artist-in-residence, Aaron, was an absolute pleasure to film. Getting to capture not only his story but also his creative process in such an inspiring place was something special. Looking forward to sharing the finished piece soon. 👀 taken in The Jeffrey Rubinoff Sculpture Park by @hometowncreative_insta

Feedback like this means the world to a small business owner. Check it out. 👇 “Mathew is truly the gem of Hometown Creative. I was completely blown away by his ability to make me feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. His sweet, genuine personality immediately puts you at ease, and what could have been a nerve-wracking experience turned into something I genuinely enjoyed. He made the entire process fun, relaxed, and effortless. I was honestly shocked by how much I enjoyed watching my own video afterward—and even more excited to share it with friends, family, and colleagues. Matthew even managed to turn the bloopers into some of my favorite moments! His editing skills are incredible, and the final product exceeded all my expectations. He has a unique gift for bringing out the best in people and capturing authentic moments in a way that feels natural and engaging. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, creative, professional, and can make you feel completely comfortable in front of a camera, Matthew is your person. I cannot recommend him highly enough! Thank you, Mathew, for such an amazing experience and an outstanding final product.” From one small business owner to another, this means a lot Tracie, thanks! #hometowncreative #comoxvalley #Comoxvideo #Vancouverislandvideo by @hometowncreative_insta

🌟 I recently made a video celebrating K2 Real Estate Group, and one thing became very clear: they genuinely care about the people they serve. What sets them apart? 🏡 A team-based approach that ensures clients always have someone available to help 🤝 Relationships first, transactions second 📍 Deep local knowledge and strong connections throughout the Comox Valley community Buying or selling a home can be stressful, but K2 does an incredible job of making the process feel clear, personal, and supportive. Their focus isn’t just on helping clients find a house—it’s about helping people find the right place to call home in the Comox Valley. #hometowncreative #comoxvalley #Comoxvideo #Vancouverislandvideo by @hometowncreative_insta

Some people just have that gift of bringing the right people together — and Chrissie Bowker is one of them. As the creative force behind CB Projects here in the Comox Valley, she’s built more than just a design and marketing company… she’s built community. Chrissie has an incredible ability to connect ideas, businesses, and people in a way that just works. In this video, I dive into what makes her so great and why so many local businesses love working with her. #hometowncreative #comoxvalley #Comoxvideo #Vancouverislandvideo by @hometowncreative_insta
