Hey, I'm Jeff! I'm a super friendly, and a fun and natural professional wedding photographer who just loves to capture romantic memories.

I live in Leamington Spa with my wife Sarah, little boy Wilson, and spoilt cat Melo.

Despite graduating with a Mathematics degree, and spending a good chunk of time in software engineering, I went with my passion and started my photography business in 2011 and have since photographed 250+ weddings - and I've never looked back.

I absolutely love spicy food - there has to be chilli oil on everything! I also love a good coffee. Just not at the same time...
Fun Fact #1
I'm not a of the gym, but I do love to keep fit, playing badminton and tennis regularly. I compete in local and county leagues.
Fun Fact #2
I am a British Born Chinese (BBC) - my family are from Hong Kong; so I am fluent in English, but sadly less so in Cantonese.
Fun Fact #3
I'm fascinated with the Japanese culture. I like a sip of cold sake, and I'm learning Japanese. We're talking of a family holiday over there one day.
Fun Fact #4
Crisps and sweets are my Kryptonite - "family sharing"-sized bags of snacks do not apply to me!
Fun Fact #5
I hold a full motorcycle license - I learnt to ride for my mid-life crisis, despite not even being able to ride a bicycle (I never had a bike when I was a kid).
Fun Fact #6

With my family and friends, important people in my life
