The older I get, the more I realize how much Asia is a part of who I am.

From Shanghai to Hong Kong, Tokyo to Macau, and Vietnam, I’m drawn to the light, the people, the streets, and all the little moments that somehow feel familiar.

As an Asian American, photographing Asia has become a way of exploring my own identity and sharing how I see this part of the world through my eyes.

After 17 years, that still matters to me.

My eyes. My hands. My memories. My imagination.

No AI. Just photographs made from being there.

Hong Kong has always had a certain feeling for me.

Neon on wet streets. A little blur, a little grain. A glance that disappears before you realize you saw it.

After 17 years, I’m still drawn to the same thing. Feeling over perfection. Moments that feel more like memories than photographs.

Maybe that’s why Wong Kar Wai’s movie world keeps finding its way into mine and my inspiration for all of my Hong Kong photos.

In 2027, Scott Robert Lim and I are bringing that inspiration to Hong Kong & Macau for our In the Mood for Love Wedding & Portrait Workshop. ❤️

More soon. This one feels special.

In celebration of World Photography Day, I wanna share my inspiration behind my style of work.

I didn’t appreciate Wong Kar Wai’s films until I was in my 30s.

When I first watched them in the ’90s, I remember thinking… everything is dark and faded, everyone is sad, and why does love never work out? 😂

Years later, during my own journey of discovering photography, I watched them again and suddenly saw everything differently.

The neon glow on skin. The shadows. The movement. That feeling of unattainable love, always fading just as you’re trying to hold onto it.

That visual world has stayed with me ever since.

From my Sony | Alpha A99 in the early 2010s to my Sony A1 II today, I’m still chasing that fleeting beauty, the kind of moment that feels like it might disappear right after I press the shutter.

In 2027, Scott Robert Lim and I are bringing that inspiration back to Hong Kong & Macau for our **In the Mood for Love Wedding & Portrait Workshop.** ❤️

Stay tuned for dates.

From the humble cubicle in Concord CA as an Analyst/Programmer to global destination wedding photographer. Somehow, this became my life. ❤️

Photography started as something I loved doing outside my 9-5. I never imagined that little obsession would eventually take me around the world, introduced me to so many incredible people, and become a 17 year career.

Over the years, I realized having the right tools and creating beautiful images is only the beginning. What matters is how you see. Recognizing that pocket of beautiful light, knowing where to place your subject so they look their best, setting the scene for maximum visual impact, and being ready to freeze that decisive moment.

And that’s exactly what I’ll be sharing this weekend at Action Camera Rocklin CA this weekend

📍 Editorial Portrait Experience

Presentation on posing, finding pockets of natural light, composition, and when I choose LED, on camera or off camera flash.

Iceland 🇮🇸 from above.

I came here searching for traces of the Vikings. Instead, I found their spirit in the landscape. The lava fields, glaciers, black sand, and this vast, raw land that still feels beautifully untamed.

Flying above Iceland in a tiny six-seater plane via reminded me how small we really are. One day we shall return to the dust of this earth, I’m grateful just to be a witness of such beautiful place.

Bucket list checked. 🇮🇸🛩️✅

Thank you to my modern-day Viking:
, & for this adventure of a lifetime. 🙏

Not every couple dreams of soft, romantic portraits.

When we first started planning C & D’s pre-wedding session, they told me they wanted something with a little grit. A little Bonnie & Clyde. A little attitude. And a whole lot of nostalgia.

They both grew up in San Francisco during the ’90s, so we wanted these photographs to feel like a love letter to the city that shaped them. A place where different cultures, neighborhoods, and stories all come together.

Because they’re also passionate travelers, the airplane museum felt like the perfect place to begin. It reflects their adventurous spirit and all the journeys that still lie ahead.

Less fairy tale. More them.

That’s always my goal.

Can you guess where this pre-wedding session took place? 👀

It’s one of my favorite places to photograph, yet almost no one guesses it correctly.

Victor and Ashley’s pre-wedding session was photographed over 10 years ago. We spent time pulling together vintage pieces to complete the look, but it was their casual outfits that I loved the most.

Long before I picked up my camera, I already had a scene playing in my head.

A city where East and West quietly intertwined.
Tailored Western fashion alongside the elegance of a cheongsam.
The rhythm of Cha Cha drifting through the air.
Old-world glamour meeting the optimism of a city reinventing itself.

I wasn’t trying to document a place.

I was chasing the feeling of a Wong Kar Wai film. The kind of story where every street corner feels nostalgic, every glance lingers a little longer, and every frame could have been a movie still.

I’ll give you one hint…

It’s somewhere in Asia.

Where do you think it is?

From San Francisco’s Sutro Bath to the deep center of Morocco’s Sahara desert, 🏜️ Anthony Bourdain was a huge inspiration of my travel & made my wedding photography career travel base since 2010.
