May 2014

I love the color and life of Haji Lane. It’s truly one of my favorite places to take family pictures. My favorite moment was arriving early to set up for a shoot and then hearing the call the prayer and watching the newspaper man wander down the street on his bicycle. 

For all the photography I’ve been able to do here in Singapore, I don’t often get out to take pictures for fun. During Chinese New Year this year, my hubby and I made one of our date nights a trip to Chinatown to photograph the chaos. 

We moved recently closer to the Singapore River and I’ve discovered a new love for shooting in this area. The architecture and scenery is incredible and there’s also a bit of a breeze, so it’s cooler than most outdoor locations here in Singapore. Enjoy these pics!

Here’s a mix of some of my favorite portraits taken at the Chinese Gardens in the western part of the island. I love these gardens for the architecture, but it also has a lot of green spaces for a different background. Kids love the nearby turtle museum, too. And there’s an ice cream stand out front. Makes for a good bribe when it’s hot, ha ha. xx
