I’ve done quite a few family photos at Singapore Botanic Gardens, and all of them look quite different. One photoshoot is never the same as the other, no matter if it is at the same place, on same weather.

I love the idea of being a “fly on the wall”, catching life as it is without trying to interfere with what is going on. I try not to pose/direct my clients too much—I want them to act as naturally as possible and interact with each other as they always do. The reason why one session is never the same! I believe the core of my work is to bring this spontaneity to the images and make the moments as much as real as possible.

I love everything about this session! I was basically chasing the kids running around and climbing the trees and enjoying the moment. It was the first time the family was back at the park, after a few months on lockdown (Covid-19). And that made everything special on this shoot!
