Cherry blossoms. Oh, cherry blossoms. These fleeting little blooms drive even the most stolid heart wild once a year. For the few days, maybe a week, that these little white beauties offer us their presence, the crowds descend and the world turns to chaos. Still, they have a drawing power that brings couples and families alike knocking at my door to capture themselves at this especially transient time of year. In this post, we’ll explore a session where the couple […]
Welcome back to Part 2 of my 2025 Year in Review series. As the weather gets warmer, I found myself defrosting my fingers and winding up to the busiest times of year. This quarter saw me working with more than a dozen families, ten couples, and covering several corporate events. April – Family, Travel, Proposal, and Event Photography Throughout April, I had several upcoming shoots on Jeju Island and, not living there, I needed to get the lay of the […]
Usually, around early April, Seoul finally begins to show a little colour after the long winter. Hints of green as well as the first flowers usually begin to show across the city in the last week of March and the first week of April. It was at this time that I met up with Miles and his family in Seoul Forest park for some spring family photos. Melanie had reached out just a month in advance and only had a […]

We had plenty of time to toss ideas back and forth as well as work out the perfect date on his trip around other shoots I already had booked. As the discussion progressed, we went back and forth between locations such as Jeju Island, Seoul Forest Park, and Olympic Park. Eventually, Daniel settled on Gyeongbokgung to combine palace architecture with some […]
That magical week of the year when we see the cherry blossoms in bloom is a popular one here in Korea. Elroy was one of the super lucky people this year who timed his session absolutely perfectly! With a bed of rapeseed flowers and a canopy of fully-bloomed cherry blossoms, this proposal really could not have gone better! We had been discussing this for quite some time and locked in a date that would work for Elroy and Jean to […]
Welcome one and all to my 2023 Year in Review. Carrying on the tradition of previous years, this will be a look at many of my activities as a photographer in Korea this year. In this first quarter, we started slowly as we always do. But, as the world started to defrost, the work began! I hope you’ll enjoy the mix of families, couples, events, and even travel photography in this first quarter. January – Family, Couple, eCommerce, and […]
It’s always great to get a recommendation from another family. In this case, the Hudecs had heard about me from my session with the Love family. I had a great session with them last year, so I was excited at the chance to work with some of their friends! My conversation with Elizabeth was short and easy. We knew what we wanted to achieve so it was just a case of picking where and when we would meet. The family […]
