  1. 2014: A Year In Review

    2015-01-21 09:48:34 UTC

    It has been almost 4 months since my last…blog post More shameful still, we are already 3 weeks into the new year. Well, you know what they (who are they, anyway?) say: better late than never, right? And what BETTER time than NOW? Yesterday, Sassy Mama Hong Kong (a local…

  2. Into The Blue

    2014-09-28 16:40:27 UTC

    I’d seen Lise around the studio over the last couple of years before we actually formally met on the morning of our shoot; a rare occurrence for me, as regular yoga practitioners at Pure Centrium over the last few years have all become acquaintances (at the very least) and friends…

  3. Magical Mystery Tour

    2014-09-21 08:25:43 UTC

    Note: this blog post should be read whilst listening to the following song: “Mama, You Got a Daughter” by John Lee Hooker Okay hey. So it’s been awhile since my last post. The date is Sunday, September 21st, and I last touched this thing on the 31st of August, so…

  4. Dhugal Meachem

    2014-08-06 14:46:44 UTC

    His name is so unique, it deserved to be its own blog title When Dhugal Meachem reached out to me over Facebook (it actually works, people! Never underestimate the power of social media, or even one happy customer…) I thought I was talking to an Eastern European dude. Boy, how…

  5. Sliced Cheese

    2014-07-29 13:08:09 UTC

    (Long title: “The Greatest Thing Since Sliced Cheese”) “What is…what I do to feed myself sliced cheese?” “Correct.” “I’ll take ‘Cheddar’ for $400.” That was me playing Jeopardy with…myself. (“Allow myself to introduce…myself.” Pretty sure I’m quoting Austin Powers to nobody right now. Moving on.) Today was a good day.…

  6. The Well-Dressed Workout

    2014-07-26 16:02:48 UTC

    It’s interesting to step back and note how my photographic journey has evolved since I began doing this 5 months ago. Whoa. Hang on a second here…it’s only been 5 months? From shooting pregnant friends of mine (who have since given birth and are now all proud new mommies, gosh…

  7. William Amadeo Benedikt Slee

    2014-07-03 07:39:25 UTC

    …or, as I like to call him, WABS. Or Willy. Or Ben Slee Valiy was one of the first girls I ever shot (back when she was merely 6 months pregnant, but looked full-term! Never seen anything like it before!) when I was just starting out as a photographer. Actually,…

  8. Tseung Kwan O, What a Morning!

    2014-06-03 14:09:38 UTC

    I love to tell people how much I enjoy giving up my weekends to shoot because it’s the truth; I have no problem waking up early (I can’t remember the last time I stayed up past midnight on a Friday or Saturday night, really!) on a Saturday or Sunday morning…

  9. All in the Family

    2014-05-30 02:56:20 UTC

    Last weekend, I got to meet two wonderful families living here in Hong Kong On Saturday morning, I went over to Barry and Sandy Wong-Tam’s flat (which, upon entry, was radiant with good energy…feng shui, people!) in the Midlevels. Both of Chinese-Canadian backgrounds like yours truly, they are proud parents…

  10. A Morning with Fé

    2014-05-19 06:47:17 UTC

    I first met Fé Valvekens (A Day with Fé) two months ago at the Marriott Café to discuss her idea to shoot some black and white portraits of girls doing various yoga poses around Hong Kong wearing her soft and über-feminine clothing. We are presently three days away from the…

  11. The G.O.A.T. Bleats

    2014-04-25 09:00:43 UTC

    I still remember taking my first yoga class at Pure Central here in Hong Kong; a friend of mine took me to Claudia (“She’s so hot!”)’s class, and I instantly fell for her Fast forward to 2.5 years later, when we were already friends off the mat and outside the…

  12. How I Fell In Love with Baby Mila

    2014-04-20 06:04:16 UTC

    I will take a quick second to speak modestly and explain that, while I have always enjoyed photography (never in front of but behind the lens, and of course I am a huge admirer of the works of others such as Tierney Gearon) it was never something I pursued full-time…

  13. A Very Good Friday with Veronica

    2014-04-18 12:59:04 UTC

    I was lucky enough to book a couple of shoots over the Easter holidays; I was even luckier that one of those shoots happened to be across the street from where I live in Happy Valley. Literally across the street. I think it took me all of 26 seconds to…

  14. Allie’s 100 Day Celebration

    2014-04-16 07:13:53 UTC

    It was a balmy, breezy, and sunny (finally, Hong Kong!) Saturday afternoon; I whisked my way through Lane Crawford to Isola, an Italian restaurant with a terrace drawing locals and tourists looking to bask in the sunshine. Offering a generous buffet selection, it’s one of the city’s more popular outdoor…
