CHANTELLE MACDONALD.

DIRECTOR & CINEMATOGRAPHER

Hello, I’m Chantelle, an award winning Director of Photography and the founder of Human Impact Stories. I have over 12 years of experience working in the film and advertising industry as a Director, Director of Photography, Photographer and Editor. I had the privilege of starting my career at Deluxe Design Group (DDG) and then Critical Mass. The work displayed here is representative of my career.

I started this company because I believe everyone has a story worth telling. Through film and photography, I help people share the moments, struggles, and triumphs that shape who they are. In short, I’m a storyteller.

For me, storytelling is deeply personal. I love working face-to-face with people, listening to their stories, and transforming those conversations into honest, human-centered visuals. Whether it’s through a cinematic documentary or a single photograph, my goal is to create connection and make every story feel seen and heard.

Human Impact Stories is about building trust, celebrating humanity, and leaving a lasting emotional impact.
