This proposal will be one that sticks with me for a while. Justian reached out with plenty of time leading up to his proposal and we were not only able to book the date and location he wanted, but could get a live music for him as well. Justian’s plan was to have a violinist play one of their favourite songs as he proposed to Vania. She had always wanted to learn the violin, so this was the perfect instrument […]
This is the final post in my 2022 Year in Review series. The final quarter of this year saw Korea’s border control relax even more and, with that, a massive influx of visitors from abroad. This may be the busiest we have ever been during the final quarter of the year. This will be a long post, so please do get a cup of tea and settle in. Many of these sessions will also become full blogs as 2023 progresses, […]

I hope you’ll enjoy this beautiful time of year as much as I did photographing it. April – Event, Family, Couple, and Travel Photography Korea finally began to lower its entry requirements and that, coupled […]

But, most of them require you to be quite deft and leave a lot to chance on the day. One way that can work really well is to broach the idea of doing a couple […]
