My work has a very editorial look. I am for classic, clean imagery that isn't heavily altered from real life.  My art is created through framing, composition, emotion and connection rather than props and trends.

Granite Ridge Estate and Barn Wedding

Ten years in the making. Kylie and Dave (along with their beautiful baby girl) chose the stunning venue of Granite Ridge Estate & Barn as the backdrop for their wedding. If you haven’t had a chance to look into this Maine venue, check out their feature in Brides Magazine featuring my photography as well. We were gifted with gorgeous weather in this late September wedding. Scroll to the end to check out their epic sunset – just WOW.

September Wedding Features

There were a lot of gorgeous elements to this wedding. Hair and makeup were provided by Sarah Depault and Noel Sarazin (their contact information is below under featured vendors). A tastefully done plum lip accented Kylie’s face and was perfect for the rich early autumn wedding. The dress fit her like a glove but that’s what you would expect from a Pronovias design. Florals were fresh and beautifully arranged by Sweet Pea Floral Designs based in Maine. The barn as well as the ceremony space were given fresh bursts of colour and foliage featuring their work. DJ Ross was excellent at communicating with the wedding party and vendors to ensure things went on schedule and to plan. The catering was provided by 111 Maine Catering and was incredible. We got to try some of their tasty entrees and given the space they were working in, they were able to create gourmet meals with excellent presentation. The team of Mike Picard Motion Pictures were awesome to work alongside with. I can’t wait to see their video and will share when available.

About me

My path here is a bit different than most. I have a background in engineering and accounting/auditing. Like every good Asian daughter, I wanted to make my parents happy. With my first paycheck I bought a camera. I was instantly addicted to capturing life's details and observing people's interactions. When I moved from Toronto to Boston, I found myself without a job but with a fresh start. I got my first gig off Craigslist (crazy!) and have been fully booked ever since. The family that had booked me on Craigslist still keeps in touch with me to this day and I've photographed them quite a few times since. I've been featured in numerous publications both online and in print (Martha Stewart Weddings, Boston Magazine, The Knot). 8+ years later, you've stumbled onto my page.  

I am candid, communicative and caring. For those that know me, they know I have a pretty wicked sense of humour to get people to relax. My goal always is to ensure you are heard and that you are comfortable throughout the process. In my portfolio you can see each family's genuine happiness and comfort in their body language. It takes a lot to create the environment of trust. The rave reviews from my families afterward show you how much they care about me in return. This environment of trust builds from the beginning and I honestly attract the kindest families that allow me to create consistently strong images with heart in order to tell their story.
