About Me
Who Am I?
I am a freelance writer and photographer born in Singapore.
I spend approximately 300 days a year traversing the world with my trusty sidekick: my beloved Rimowa.

What Do I Shoot?
Food, travel, landscape and monochrome photography are my deepest passions.
Although the techniques and equipment may vary with each project, the emotions, drama and passion are the unwavering constants.
Life In Monochrome
I have been interested in photography since my youth and over the years it has evolved from shooting ordinary landscape photos to more introspective monochromatic scenes.
This change was inspired by a quote by Ted Grant “If you photograph people in black and white you photograph their souls, but if you photograph them in colour you photograph their clothes.”
Frozen Moments In Time
My favourite scenes are melancholic and pensive in nature. I am fascinated with juxtaposing scenes of architecture or depictions of people or animals; moments which seem to stand still like the delicate balance of a dancer paused mid-leap, reflecting one's deepest moods or emotions.

Published Books
My passion has led to the creation of 2 of my own coffee table books which are distributed nation wide in the National Library of Singapore. One captures moments in the lives of both agricultural and hospitality players titled, Behind The Scenes : Lives of These Unsung Heroes.
The other is filled with hair raising high resolution photographs of animals within their natural habitat and highlights of South Africa as it captures my first hand account both up close and personal with predators and prey within the game parks of Africa.

Cinematography
With a delicate touch of cinematic magic, I animate my words and images, transforming them into a soulfully choreographed dance of vivid detail and raw, pulsating emotion.
