Latest Promotion: Win a free canvas print worth S$660 this March

Family and children photography in Singapore

When one of my early clients told me that she was nearly moved to tears after viewing the photos I took of her children, I knew that I had made the right career choice. The knowledge that I am creating images that parents will treasure for a lifetime and that their children can look back on when they are older is what drives me.

I specialize in family photography, newborn photography, baby photography and children photography and I always try and create a relaxed and fun atmosphere during all of my photo sessions.

I take pride in creating a high quality, bespoke experience for you during the whole process of photographing your family. This starts with our first contact and gaining an understanding of your requirements and ends when I personally deliver your prints and images to you. My portrait packages are very basic so that you have complete flexibility over what products to buy, whether it is that large canvas wrap of your family or a beautiful album of images of your children playing at the park.

I work with natural light and don’t shy away from using flash when necessary. The aim is always to get beautiful images of your family regardless of the light source needed.

Newborn photography & baby photography at the studio

Photo sessions at the studio are usually split between shooting with natural light and and shooting with flash. Each gives a different kind of look to the photo; diffused natural light will give a soft, almost dreamy look whereas photos taken using flash have a crisper look. My style is different from many baby photographers in that my focus is always on the baby themselves and how they interact with their parents. You will find very few props in the studio and we won’t spend ages putting newborns into unnatural poses.

Sessions usually start with natural light photography so that the baby can get used to their surroundings. We end the session using flash in short periods of 5-10 minutes. For newborns we leave plenty of time for feeding, nappy changing and the odd bout of crying.

Kids photography at home

Children are the most relaxed in the familiar surroundings of their homes and it is here where I often get the most natural looks and emotions. Once you book a family photography session at your home I will arrange with you to meet up a few days before the actual session. This gives me a chance to get some unique ideas for photos, how we can incorporate your home into some of the images as well as let me know what the lighting conditions are likely to be.

Do you have a fun, family activity that you do every weekend? Making cupcakes with your children? Playing board games or hide and seek? Let’s incorporate that into our photo session so that you can always remember the little moments that matter.

Family photography on location 

Many parents want a record of themselves and their children at their favourite weekend spot to relax and Singapore certainly has some great locations to have a family photo session outdoors. Whether it is a Saturday morning playing at The East Coast Park or a lazy Sunday afternoon exploring Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden the emphasis on our photo sessions is to capture your family having fun. Photos from outdoor sessions tend to be more candid and natural and can often tell a great story that would be perfect for showcasing in an album.

As we all know, the Singapore weather can be hot and unpredictable. So the best times for outdoor sessions are either early morning or late afternoon. That way we avoid the heat of the midday sun and also increase our chances of getting some beautiful lighting conditions. If it looks like it is going to be a rainy day then we can reschedule the shoot for another time.
