PORTRAITS
From Toronto, Canada to the golden dunes of Laguna Beach: these one-off shoots I did specifically to capture some of my friends. Chance encounters lead to some of the greatest friendships.
Jong Lee ♩ @Peach Luffe
With a beloved devotion to his heart, art, and music, Jong Lee is a crafting Cancerian artist who creates with his heart on his sleeve. Him and his cat, Mango, sweeten and enliven the internet world with his singer-songwriting abilities. In person, Jong is quippy, hilarious, and so in tune with his curiosity, playfulness, and the things he sees for himself in his life.
Based in Toronto, Canada, his warmth and encouraging laughter sparks many from all around the world. Our photos and his music video, “Beyond” were some of the pieces we got to together while he was still in the Bay Area.
He’s truly a beautiful, sunny soul.
The best college friendships are born unexpectedly, yet undeniably synchronistically.
You know that feeling when it seems like the universe wants you to befriend someone? Gloria was that gift for me.
After careful collaboration, planning, and excited dreaming, we visited Laguna Beach, California for the afternoon through evening to explore, laugh, and capture her bright rays of sunshine. These photos were used for friends, family, and university invitations and cards to dear ones, as well as for her personal keepsake and professional headshots. ♥
｡･ﾟﾟ･ Gloria wanted an unconventional, nature-oriented university graduation photoshoot! ･ﾟﾟ･｡
Gloria
MAIVY | Directed in Redondo Beach, California. A duffel of different styles to brought out the coastal tones. Amidst a packed and busy pier, we synchronously moved into arrangements and captured our favorite moments on my Canon Rebel. Moments from this day and shoot were inspired by much of the flow I feel when exploring Southern California spontaneously. It gave me a lot of experience shooting in public!
