Seoul Family Photographer

Barch Family Photography in Seoul

This session contains everything that makes family photography such a wonderful job. Love, fun, and a little silliness to top it all off. I had a great time out with the Barch family during their visit to Seoul. Jude was full of smiles and wouldn’t let us stop exploring. We started the session by walking over to the palace from their apartment in the beautiful spring weather. A few jumps over the gutter and a run or two later, we […]

Family Photographer in Seoul

Gibson Black – Seoul Family Photographer

Stephanie and John reached out way back in April as their young son was going to be celebrating his first birthday, and they wanted to get some family pictures in Seoul before the day and their summer break. Most of the children I work with are between 18 months and 5 years old, so this was going to be a challenge. We met up for a cup of coffee a few days before our session to discuss locations and for me […]

Pre-wedding Photographer in Korea

Kevin and Malia’s Pre-wedding Session – Seoul Photographer

We’ve been quite family photography oriented around here for a while now. So, I thought it might be time to get back onto some pre-wedding photography for a change of pace. In April of this year, I had the chance to work with the amazing Kevin and Malia. They’re living and working here in Seoul, and we got together for what turned out to be one of the most beautiful days of the year. Weather is always so unpredictable in […]

Seoul Family Photographer - Foote

Foote Family Photography Session in Seoul

I haven’t been able to update this blog anywhere near as frequently as I’d like to. Time has been a precious commodity, as I’ve not only been working my regular busy season, but also I’m proud to say that my first book is done and live on Kickstarter! Now that everything has slowed down a little, I’d like to introduce you to the Foote family. I spent a day documenting their lives with their newly adopted son back in March […]

Walker Family Photography in Seoul, Korea

Walker Family Session in Seoul

It’s crazy to think that it has been 7 months since I last saw the Walker family. I got to meet Rebecca, Scott, and Davis during their visit to meet their daughter Annalee. We had a blast playing in some gorgeous light during the autumn. Seoul could not have been nicer to them during their visit. Top that off with Rebecca being a photographer as well, and you have a great recipe for experimenting and making some great images. When […]

Korea Family Photographer - Sharp

Meeting Sam Sharp – Seoul Family Photographer

Just on 1363 days ago, I met Kala and Gary for the first time as they were taking custody of their first son, Jae. It was my first ever adoption session, and my introduction to what would become such a big part of my life and work from then on. It was a rollercoaster of emotions, beautiful and painful at the same time. What a thing, to be asked to document one of a family’s most pivotal moments. Needless to […]

Family Photograhy in Seoul

McDonald Family Photography – Seoul

Autumn in Korea is the most beautiful time of year. The colours in the trees are just gorgeous and the light is nothing short of stunning. We only get a couple of weeks of this weather, but this year I was lucky enough to work with some beautiful families during those couple of weeks. Jana and I had been talking about doing a session with her family for quite some time, and we finally managed to secure a time and […]

Pre-wedding Photographer, Jeonju, Korea

Seoin and Kwangwoo – Jeonju, Korea Pre-Wedding

Seoin and been trying to convince Kwangwoo for months to get some pre-wedding images done, and he had refused continuously to visit one of the cookie-cutter style studios that are the norm here in Korea. Finally, Seoin discovered my site and showed it to him. He gave in as he liked the light-hearted, free-form style of shoot that I provide. Taking the bus down to Jeonju, where they live and work, is a beautiful ride through the Korean countryside. Once […]

Meeting Park Orth – Family Photographer

A few times over this last year, I have been blessed enough to work with families that I have worked with before. Many of my sessions are for people who are in Korea only for a short time for work or as part of their adoption process, which means I don’t usually get to spend a lot of time with them. So, I was perhaps a little too excited when Lori and Steve said they would be returning with their […]

Hanbok Pre-wedding Photography in Seoul - Zack and Ting En

Zack and Ting En – Seoul Pre-Wedding Photography

Ting En and Zack were visiting Seoul from Singapore, and contacted me about doing some pre-wedding photography during their stay. They would be visiting during September, which is an ideal time for outdoor photography in Seoul. The warmer weather and clear skies make for beautiful days to work on. Ting En had a clear idea of what she was looking for, and that made our planning phase really straight forward. We were able to speed through the planning process using […]
