Hannah Hatherly Maynard (Bude, 1834 – Victoria, 1918)〔(Mattison, David. Camera Workers, The British Columbia Alaska & Yukon Photographic Directory, 1858-1950 )〕 was a Canadian photographer best known for her portrait work and experimental photography involving photomontage and multiple exposures. She also photographed people using techniques that made them appear as statuary: on columns or posing as if they were made of stone. ==Early life and career beginnings==
She was born in 1834 as Hannah Hatherly, in Bude, Cornwall. Hannah married in 1852 Richard Maynard, an apprentice boot-maker, and in the same year they emigrated to Bowmanville in Canada West (present-day Ontario), where four of their five children were born.〔Wilks, Claire Weissman.

ISBN 0-920428-34-7〕 In 1858, Richard joined the exodus of gold-seekers on the Fraser River in British Columbia, and his venture appears to have been profitable.〔Watson, Petra Rigby.

Scott Gallery, July 17 – August 23, 1992.〕 While her husband was out west, Hannah learned the basics of photography, most likely from R & H O'Hara Photographers, in Bowmanville. After selling the boot store, in 1862 the family moved to Victoria on the Colony of Vancouver Island. Richard soon left for the Stikine River to take up placer mining, and it is believed that in 1862 Hannah opened up her first photographic studio, Mrs. R. Maynard's Photographic Gallery.〔 Upon his return home in 1863,〔 Richard found his wife successfully entrenched as a photographer, and by 1864 Hannah had taught her husband the principles of photography while he operated a second boot store.〔Palmquist, Peter E.; and Thomas R.
