"You are the apple of my eye"
Countryside Rendezvous
Run off for some alone time and go roaming the country fields with your newly wedded husband as the sun gently sets, soft speckles of light on your cheeks, a golden glow, ever so heavenly. Illuminating the sky like purple roses blooming in the summer evening or ending the evening with a fiery volcano showcase. Don't stress out about the curfew with the guests, I timed it so that you can make it back in time for the next lot of activities you have planned.
Rain or Sunshine
We'll be there, be it thick or thin, rain or sunshine. Blessed with this beautiful couple that had the welcoming aura and free-spirited soul to take on my suggestion of "frolicking amongst the fields in the rain like those old 80s romantic movies". Such champs to brave it with me omi goodness y'all's were sooo cute!! Shout out to Correy being a helluva a good sports too, his POV is different from mine but the lad also joined me in the rain too.
So sincerely, thank you Correy. It was a team effort Grateful to be a part of your special day guys!
Put these two working on the same gig and you've got a dream team
Joyce is your hype-girl.
She gives couples guidance and directions for movement-rich poses by either:
-
Suggesting fun prompts out of the blue
-
Proactively teaching poses that you can say yes or no to
-
Energizes group shots with contagious enthusiasm
Every interaction is purposeful: she doesn’t just capture moments, she invites space for vulnerable emotions and cultivates excitement.
Correy is your quiet ninja.
Prefers to go by a run-sheet if there is one.
You as the couple will have to be super creative with poses and be able to hype yourselves up with lots of activities going on. Whatever is happening he will snap photos of.
He documents the in-between, the candid laughs during speeches and the way golden hour light clings to a champagne flute. Framing atmospheric shots with his waist-up portraits, background layered with gorgeous buttery bokeh and symmetry.
Age don't matter
You have found a new partner to grow old with you till the end of time, and I cannot be any happier for you, do celebrate!
LGBTQ+ Friendly
Everyone is welcome to inquire for a cute session with me!
No boundaries, no restrictions

Intimate Garden Weddings
Beautiful garlands and boho rustic vibes, the spring breeze brushes past the baby hairs on your face, your husband brushes your hair back and tucks it behind your ear as he goes in for a kiss. The smell of freshly mowed lawn, and cherry blossoms drifting down slowly to the rhythm of the violin. A place where it's serene and peaceful, far away from the bustling city honks and industrial roads. At this very moment, you are surrounded by only the tear-jerking sniffles from your closest family and friends, and the sparrows that perch on top of the white draped branches, singing their blessings as prayers are made.
I am passionate in taking photos of people because there are so much possible moods and atmospheres that you could create from one photo. I love the feeling of making everyone beautiful and I especially like the feeling of completing an album, and being able to give it to my client with 100% confidence that I did my best to deliver, the highest quality of photos that I possibly could.
I do all sorts of photography, pretty much anything that you can think of because another reason why I love capturing moments of people is that there are split-second moments that deserve just as much attention as the beautifully posed photos. Whether if it's your wedding or baby shower
It would be an honour to be part of your special day.
CANDID, IMMERSIVE PHOTOGRAPHS AND VIDEOS, STORYTELLING APPROACH
I have always been a photo lover and a person that liked hogging the camera. I still am actually hahaha
What made me decide to go behind the camera?
After seeing the photos that my mother took for my Year 13 ball, that was 5 years ago if you were wondering :)
I started to fall in love with dress fabric and hair flying in the wind. I really liked the candid photos she took for me.
It was simple yet so natural. Gradually,
I got hooked into amazing designs of posters and started wooing over the
gorgeous wedding photos on Instagram. Some depicted dramatic emotions, some were subtle
but so powerful with the connection the couples had with one another.
That is how I fell in love with photography.
I use a Canon 5D Mark 4 camera paired with a Canon 24-70mm f2.8 lens and the occasional Canon 50mm 1.4 lens etc. Lately I've been loving the Canon R5 camera paired with the 70-200mm f2.8 lens.
-You may like to dream of beautiful things, but we like to make these beautiful dreams come true for you-
If you as the newly weds decide to order food on the day, then I'll get paparazzi shots of the BOTH OF YOU being cutesy and adorable.

I've never done the "Groom's Prep" part of a wedding day before, as I usually assign Correy to do that since it just feels more natural for him to be doing it.
