As a true portrait of authenticity and artistry. The wedding photography service that I offer seeks to capture every precious moment of your special day. And creating memories that will be cherished for all eternity.
My signature style marries creativity with emotion to yield natural, colorfully stunning portraits. The portraits vibrantly express the depth of your own connection. From that moment when you steal furtive glances at one another to the moment of emotional proclamations of marriage. It will be my passion to encapsulate that very soul of your celebration.

I invite you to explore my portfolio. Also discover how I can transform your love story into captivating visual narratives that will stand the test of time.
I want to say few things about what influences my photography. Fashion to me goes hand in hand with photography and I’m falling in love with Parisian or European fashion. It isn’t about the labels or brands but the neutral colours, look and the feel. They are timeless! I appreciate the beauty of good architecture such as Gothic, Baroque, classical and Neo-classical.
Engagement Photoshoot
It was a rainy day in Sydney CBD when Aeriel and Josh joined photographer Ash of Candid Chaser for a moody, urban engagement session. The vision, was inspired by Pinterest! “Pinterest made me do it” laughs Aeriel, “Plus I wanted to do things a bit different. Our pre-wedding photoshoot will be matching our theme already so I thought for our engagement photo, we’d make it a bit different. Something out of our comfort zone and something people don’t go for usually. And, we are both awkward in front of the camera. We couldn’t do too much lovey-dovey so I looked and prayed for someone who could maybe focus more on taking candid shots. Like we wanted to do something different but still make it natural and chill. We love the photos so much! We are grateful for Ash! He made the images in my head come to life and even better!” After meeting at church, and building a solid friendship for five years, Josh decided to take the leap and pursue Aeriel, the rest, as they might say is history with Josh popping the question on Aeriel’s birthday earlier this year. She tells “Josh proposed on my birthday this year. Josh and I have been talking about getting married for ages, like months into the relationship. Although it wasn’t a smooth and perfect start for us, it was quite challenging actually – lots of crying and prayers on my part and also on him. But praise God we’re here. But yes, it wasn’t like it was a complete surprise when he finally asked me. We always knew it would happen but I just didn’t know when, where and how we would do it. And I have to say, I was becoming impatient the last few months prior hahaha but God is good, He knew His timing. Josh asked just at the right time. He proposed at our wedding venue actually at Summergrove Estate! It was perfect! They pretended that we were scheduled to visit the venue but my gut was telling me it was coming and happening, a birthday surprise and all haha. He tried so hard to keep it a surprise but I knew him like the back of my hand, plus my mum and sisters were so obvious hahaha they were all stressing and panicky but looking back now so much love I felt that time. All the efforts for making it happen.”
