PLANS
Only couple months away to my graduation, the end of school and the threshold to my finally something I WANT to do with my life, to be a young and aspiring photographer that travels to many places.
I will start with Sydney and then Melbourne or vice versa to work with many new people from the industry and apart from that I will be traveling with my lovely make up artist Elsie Tan to Melbourne but I will also work with new creative teams too!
Its been almost a year I been living in Perth, of course not like so many people, I found Perth was very magical at the beginning while that brought me to whole dimension where I think there is nothing more, thats it. And on June I finally will get out to explore bigger scope of fashion industry around Australia and then hopefully Singapore too.
I have been having few interviews with Australian agents for representation and hope it will come through soon! I personally think getting signed means you are ready for almost every aspect of the industry, not only fashion but commercial which is always nerve-wrecking but gains so much in return. I’m looking to sign with agency that can represent me on Asia as well.
It’s been a short but incredibly amazing journey in Perth, so much grin and tear but here I am, made of iron. I know where I’m going, I know what I’m going to do, and I’m young, I will be making something big with all of my hard working self.
This frankly, has been the worst April/Easter but I’m getting up slowly, and I’m looking forward to stand on my own soon enough and make big things!
To understand limitation is way to go; but, never limit yourself in believing that you can make the world exactly like what you want.
If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger.

I want to get every student at my school to turn up one day wearing whatever the fuck we want, we’ll light up bongs in the class room and get drunk, trash everything breakable and tell the teachers how much we all hate them. What will they do? Expel us all? I don’t think so. Fuck school. Fuck teachers. Fuck rules.

Updated Website! →
Finally updated my website. Uploaded couple works from last exhibition and couple other things. It has been a crazy busy week of shooting so now will be relaxing a bit as my stylist is off to Melbourne Fashion Week! Enjoy! x
Here are the exhibition’s photos. It was really cool, they put up along the AmBar’s lane, all hung on the wall. I showcased my works Modern Amusement and Quarter Past Wonderful from The Shangri-La; Hot On The Heels of Love, Pensive, and Strange Love from Killerbees!
These are the snapshots of me, Elsie Tan (my lovely MUA) and Chloe Spalding (my stylist that has amazing taste).
The last three works were Romain Duquesne’s Rapture (which I totally love!), and Gary Sandford’s.
Come and see the rest of the exhibitions as it will be until Sunday!!
