I am an independent photographer. My first contact with photography was 15 years ago on a summer holiday trip to west Sichuan, China. Since then I never left. My first camera was a Minolta XG1 with prime 50mm/2 lenses.

It was a great camera: compact, discrete, robust, crispy sharp image. I was taken with it to Xingjiang and Tibet in the following years.

Later I moved to Canon EOS 5, mainly shooting colourchrome and black and white negatives. I have even converted part of the garage to be a darkroom. Time was plentiful those years. The aromatic fixer was just indulgent.

Travel and photography was like left and right arms of mine. I told myself, ‘Look after your gear. They are your eyes. If anything went seriously wrong, you’d better packed and go home.’ But then I was young.

Time moved on, I finally surrendered to DSLR. I shoot with Canon 5D with a prime 35/1.4L as my kit lenses these days. Although my artillery grew over the years, I took less and less pictures, particularly on tourist spots. I would be upset if someone told me ‘hey, this is like a postcard’.

I enjoy more on observation and analysis the intricate moment of between people, people and their surrounding environment. And ‘manipulate’ such natural setting, steal that decisive moment.

I undertake private photojournalism assignments for events such like trip, wedding, graduation, birthday, celebration, funeral etc. At the moment there is an introductory offer on wedding photojournalism.

Please contact for detail.
