I am a documentary photographer based in Singapore. 

I believe the photos that we take are a reflection of our personal life journey. Each of us are unique as we present our lives and beliefs in a way that is true to ourselves.

I choose to make images in black and white because it brings out emotions in a singular focus without any distraction from other shades of colour. 

To me, it is akin to using a sketch book and a pencil to draw what we see; a simple depiction of life that focuses on the essentials.

Emotions can be in the form of portraits or landscapes, visions that touches your heart in a personal way.
