When you forget your mobile phone but not your camera when you leave the house, you have an idea of what is important to you. This is what happened to Jonathan Ho multiple times after he bought his first Nikon Coolpix in 2001.

Jonathan always had a problem with short-lived hobbies, as do most men in their mid 20s. Photography however, refused to be forsaken. It was a revelation to him that this was here to stay and 15 years and counting is a strong testament to that.

Jonathan reveals another revelation he had mid-way through his continuing journey. Loving photography leads to buying more equipment. Loving your subject leads to great images.

With a solid background in photography and lighting theory and 15 years of field experience as a professional wedding photographer, his developed style is romantic and emotional, always real but never superfluous. Jonathan achieved the coveted FMPA qualification in 2014 and was promptly promoted to Judge for Far East Qualifications.

He has shot over 500 couples in 20 countries and has preserved their most precious memories even though he has forgotten the names of some of them. We appreciate his honesty about his memory, as well as in his images.
