Thanks for the invite to dinner! It was a great time meeting and eating with some smart, and accomplished folks in the Atlanta and D.C. AAHPI scene. The Buford Hwy corridor definitely has so many communities and stories. Congrats to Mayor John Park of Brookhaven for being the first Asian American mayor in all of […]

What an amazing display of culture and talent! Thanks for having me! Here are my favorite photos (and some dreamy slow shutter videos) from a lovely evening at the theatre. Feel free to use the images however you want (Merry Christmas) 🙂 Anyone that would like to shoot in the spring let me know! There […]
Continue readingHoliday (Asian) Food 2023
Just thought I’d close off the year with a simple post of some of the great food I ate this holiday season. Spoiler alert, it’s just the normal places we’d eat on a regular week! 🙂 So many amazing affordable Asian places to eat at in Atlanta. Hot Cafe If you’re ever near or going […]
Continue readingSummerour Atlanta Wedding – G&C – 12.03.2023
For this wedding I made a personal recap book, an 8×6″ Flush Mount with matte velvet paper. I think it looks pretty nice! The paper is a bit more expensive than the normal lustre paper, but the fact that it doesn’t show any reflections and can be viewed/photographed from any direction is great. The vertical […]
Continue readingFujifilm S5 Portraits Revisited
At some point I think modern camera culture will fall in line with car culture. Folks wanting a different user experience, or just appreciate how something looks. With cameras I think the best reason why folks should want to collect and use “old” digital cameras is because that’s the only way to get access to […]

L&N All this happened in one day believe it or not! Thanks to Lalsi and Ngai for being such great models and willing to walk to get these shots. 😉 The Chin cultural attire is so lovely and I already have ideas for some spring shoots amidst the fruit tree blossoms.

Thanks for reading/viewing along on my journal here. I know the last posts have been more of a visual record of my practicing with my various photography combos. Just like getting up early to walk or shoot hoops, practicing with different camera combos to build up the muscle memory is always a good thing. Plus […]
Continue readingFall Photos + Fujifilm X-E1 + 16-50mm
I really like this super light kit for wandering around. Once you stop considering cameras for situations where they might struggle in professional/work settings they are all charming in their own way. If the weak battery goes out on a chilly early morning walk, no big deal, just admire the falling leaves and sing along […]
Continue readingNikon V1 + FT1 + 18-55mm Kit Lens
The other day it dawned on me that I could use the cheap kit lens from the D5300, the ubiquitous 18-55mm on my various Nikon 1 cameras adapted with the FT1. I’ve obviously used all of my F mount lenses on this thing for testing and goofing off purposes many times in the past but […]

Some fall photos from a drive to Westminster South Carolina, with some stops before and afterwards. So cold on this day.

I bought a really excellent condition Nikon D5300 and kit lens the other day. It was too cheap to pass up and after using the exif checker, this camera had only been used for about 4000 pictures. I thought it would be nice to have a simple light camera that has a flip out screen […]
Continue readingDiwali BAPS Fireworks Photos 2023 – Lilburn, GA
Every year I keep on forgetting to bring the Olympus cameras, with their fancy Live-Composite and Live-Bulb photo modes. Probably the best tool for fireworks photography. Oh well, these were shot with less than optimal gear, but it was still fun and a sight to behold on a chilly Sunday.
