Light, patience & a love for the in-between
Nyonya Portrait
Why I do this
It started with a single, faded photograph of my grandmother in her finest Baju Kebaya, radiating a quiet, timeless grace. Fascinated by the intricate stories woven into every stitch of Peranakan culture, I picked up a camera to ensure these beautiful traditions never fade into the past. Today, our studio breathes new life into ancestral history.

Driven by a deep passion for Peranakan culture, they combine modern photographic techniques with the cinematic, moody aesthetic of early 20th-century studios. Their work goes beyond taking pictures; it meticulously preserves the intricate textures of the Baju Kebaya, the grandeur of ancestral architecture.
