“art is the estrangement between passion and time“
– a philosopher with a stick
“”it would be really funny if you were called tai tea since you’re allergic to actual thai tea” – my friends
my dream of taking photos started with a camera passed down to me from my dad. ever since, i’ve fallen in love with the craft. in fact, some of my friends say that my head is more likely in a camera than a phone.
although as much as i love my camera, nothing beats how much i love connecting with people—whether with art or words as the medium. extra fun fact, i’m a sucker for sugary drinks and any type of noodles and soup.

“Tai always likes to take his time to get the best quality photos. He likes to find the best places for lighting and sets the mood for an outstanding picture. No matter what, I will always let him take my picture, whenever and wherever.”

“Tai was very professional to work with and was not afraid to step in and help with other parts of production while still taking pictures. He was also able to work well with other photographers that had just shown up.”

“We wholeheartedly recommend Tai to anyone looking for a photographer. We wanted to capture our first Christmas with our baby and wanted someone within our budget who is also good with kids. We learned about Tai through word-of-mouth and he agreed to take our family photos in our home.
We booked a 1hr session around our baby’s nap schedule. Tai came on time and was prepared. He respected our home and worked within the dedicated areas where we wanted our photos taken. He offered us ideas on poses and was open to our suggestions too. Shortly after our session, Tai shared some photo previews and sent us the digital album later. We were satisfied with the photos we recieved and grateful we have these photos to remember our bay’s first Christmas. Thanks to Tai!”
