I’ve got a new studio! I’ve been here for a bit over a year now and the space is constantly changing, here’s what it looks like right now.
Eight hundred and fifty two portaits, what’s next?
I took portraits of 852 people in 2023!
What Kind of Stuff Do You Shoot?
In this post, I’ll answer one of the questions I get asked the most. I’m hoping that this post might be helpful for aspiring photographers who want to know the kinds of clients one might get in the commercial portrait photography world.
The Human Side of Portrait Photography
In this post, I want to share what I consider to be the most important aspect (!) about portrait photography for me. Here’s a statement that describes it in a nutshell: I think many portrait photographers would benefit from thinking a bit less about the technical side of photography and focus more on how to make their approach more humanistic and empathetic.
Staying Close to Personal Photographs
Oh hey there—long time no post! In this post, I want to share a few photos that I’ve recently printed and why. Once every few years, I go through my archives, flag a bunch of photos somewhat mindlessly, and send them to all get printed. It costs something like 30$ and we have over a hundred photos. Nothing fancy, just small 4x6 cards that we keep in a box on the coffee table.
My Science Background
In this post, I’ll be sharing a bit more about my background in science prior to photography and I’ve fished out a bunch of photos from my past for the occasion!
Portrait Photographer in a Pandemic
In this post, I’ll share how the pandemic has affected my work life as a portrait photographer. I’ll also share photos from a few shoots I’ve done over the past several months.
A few Projects during Covid-19
In this post, I’ll be sharing a few mini-series. I don’t really have a clear goal with these photos. I’m mostly doing my best to stay active and have fun.
Staying Productive
It’s been over a month since our quarantine has started. All contracts have been cancelled / postponed of course, but as a part-time optimist, I can see my silver lining: I can still be a productive photographer. In this post, I’ll share what I’ve been doing when motivation and inspiration struck.
Lockdown
