We started photography as a hobby years ago. We have looked up to prestigious professional photographers works and wishing one day we can achieve the same. As we learned more about the craft, after countless times of hard work, blood and sweat, we joined photography competitions, not expecting anything in return. But when we started winning, award after award – how satisfying. We are humbled and blessed. Eventually we became professional photographers in 2007, and it’s a personal achievement when we win from time to time. With modest flood of pride, we share our joys with our clients whose photos we used for competitions.
