This project’s theme is neon photography. It was inspired by Brandon Woelfel.
He is so popular for his neon photography. As he is always out the street to shoot with organic light source such as sign of restaurants. By his creative use of DVD, mirror to reflect the light. Besides, he also use Led light put around the model and camera’s lense to create a depth and great bokek.
By doing that,he can pull so much out of the picture and make it pop out.
I decided to go shooting with my friends in a Vietnamese coffee house. Using neon sign as the key light, I used DVD disk to reflect as well as phone’s screen. So that the light will bouncing around the model.

He pictures was a bit dark at first but using retouching skin and the combo of Hue, Sat and Lumination in Photoshop, it changed the colour of the picture a lot.
I am a Wedding filmmaker/ fashion, brand promo video producer from Toronto, Canada. Also, I am currently a student in Video Production at Durham college.
I was born and raised in a small beautiful country in South East Asia called “Vietnam”. I move to Canada in 2017, this is when I slowly fall in love with the beauty of this country and I want to learn how to capture it.
Since then, I do a lot of freelance work as a photographer. However, until I was getting the age that everybody getting married, I realized I want to capture Wedding events as it is the most meaningful and priceless moments in people’s life. I gradually switch my photographer career into videographer as Wedding Filmmaker. Besides, it’s also a great chance to work with famous fashion or start up brands. I feel so grateful that I can help someone’s business to grow.
I have done 10 weddings during the last 3 months in 2019. I also have great chance to collapse to produce fashion video with Zane Barlas. Besides, I also work for some NGO (non-profit organizations) such as Earth Day Canada, Veo (Travel for Education).
