ABOUT
hi, I'm shao
I never planned to be a photographer.
Back in 2023, my friends took the most beautiful photos on our grad trip and honestly, I just wanted a camera so I could get nice photos of myself.
Then I fell down a rabbit hole of photography videos, tried (unsuccessfully) to teach my husband how to shoot, and somewhere along the way realised I was completely in love with it myself.
I started bringing my camera everywhere. Overseas trips, weekends away, eventually weddings. People kept saying you should do this professionally. So here I am.
This isn't my main job, but it’s so much more than something I do on the side.
It's just something I genuinely love. Creative, unhurried, and all heart.
I'm drawn to greenery, golden light, and the quiet moments between the big ones. And I'll be honest, I cry at strangers' wedding videos. I just really, really love love.
If that sounds like your kind of photographer, I'd love to hear your story. 💛
