Usually, around early April, Seoul finally begins to show a little colour after the long winter. Hints of green as well as the first flowers usually begin to show across the city in the last week of March and the first week of April. It was at this time that I met up with Miles and his family in Seoul Forest park for some spring family photos. Melanie had reached out just a month in advance and only had a […]
Thanks for joining me in this final instalment of the year that was 2024. As it usually is, the final quarter of the year was the busiest for us this year, as well. We had some unexpected turns in the weather that made for some of my favourite sessions of the year. I hope you’ll enjoy this post! October – Proposal, Family, and Event Photography October’s first order of business was a flight down to Jeju Island for Nathan’s […]
Thanks for joining me in the third portion of my Year in Review series for 2024. In this post, we’ll look at quite a few of my sessions from July to September as the weather finally cooled down and we began heading into autumn. July – Proposal, Family, and Commercial Photographer July is one of the hottest, wettest, and most humid months in Seoul, but any rain we have tends to wash the trees clean of the hot summer […]
Welcome back to my 2024 Year in Review series. In this post, we’ll be taking a look at some of my sessions from spring and early summer. If you’re visiting at this time of year, it should give you a good idea of what to expect from the weather here. Most years, it’s one of the nicest times of year as the weather is warm and the light is beautiful. April – Family, Proposal, and Event Photography April is […]
What a wild ride 2024 has been. It started out relatively slowly as our winter usually does, allowing us a little time to breathe and perhaps even take a personal trip somewhere before the year really winds up. In this first installment of my Year in Review series, we’ll take a look at a few of those shoots as well as some of my personal work from that time. As a few shoots from this time are still under embargo […]
Of all the questions I get asked about Korea, by far the most frequent ones are with relation to the weather. It is so changeable, so short-lived, and so various that I can completely understand why people are confused when those snow covered scenes they’ve seen online don’t materialise during their visit. In this post, I’d like to talk about one of my favourite times of year, early summer! One of the great things about Seoul’s palaces is that they […]
Autumn in Seoul is a short-lived, but beautiful time of year. Typically, we’ll get a week or two of gorgeous colours on the trees around the last week of October and the first week of November. Then, all the leaves fall to the ground and the temperatures start to drop. That’s what I was afraid of when Jane contacted me from Singapore. The end of November is usually freezing cold and the trees are barren. However, as we’ll see, in […]
In this energy-filled family photo shoot, we’ll take a journey with the Perssons as they took custody of their youngest son, Edvin. We’ll talk about the ups and downs and how we reached the wonderful place we did by the end of this shoot. Post-custody sessions are always somewhat up in the air and very much a take-things-as-they-come affair. Until we actually meet, there’s no telling how the little ones will be and this shoot was such a perfect example […]
Welcome to the final post in my 2023 Year in Review series. This post covers the months of October, November, and December. These are usually our most predictable in terms of weather but this year things got thrown out of order a little. Our usually short-lived autumn colours came in patches all throughout the final 4 months of the year. Normally, they come and go in the last week of October and the first week of November. The normally bitterly […]
Welcome to the third blog in my Year in Review series for 2023. This section takes us through the dramatic weather of summer and into the calmer month of September when autumn starts to show its hand. Despite the heat, summer offers beautiful greens that we don’t get at any other time of year and the beginning of autumn can be equally as beautiful as when all the leaves change (but it lasts a lot longer!). July – Family, […]
