I'd highly recommend May Dream Photography for their friendly yet professional way of producing great work. Fantastic coverage and excellent attention to detail -- is how I'd describe them. My husband & I couldn't be happier with the photos/videos that were produced for our son's first birthday. They were also particularly amazing with keeping calm and accommodating our every request multiple times. Thanks again for your great work, much appreciated! More...

This is our second family photoshoot we have done with Joyce and we couldn't be happier with the results. Not only did she capture beautiful memories but we had a genuinely fun filled time with her. She always goes above and beyond in her work. Thank you for all you do, Joyce and we can't wait for our next family photoshoot with you. ❤ More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
The most important thing is to interact with people and make them feel at ease first, this is assist in getting those smiling natural photos. It would be composition, framing and the photographer's feel for flattering angles of a person or item. These skills utilised on location during the photo session creates an exceptionally strong base for culling and editing in post production. Second part would be editing the colours into a beautiful vibrant colour and crop accordingly to a fashionable manner.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
I would ask the client what the desired date of the booking would be, and if the time is known that would be helpful to know as well so we can check our schedules.
Then I would ask how many hours of coverage they would like and approximately how many people will be attending and from there I will provide my expert advice from my previous experiences about how many hours would suit you more and also let you know approximately how many beautifully edited photos I would be able to give out to you.
What do you love most about your job?
I love meeting new people and being able to go to different style, format and themed events. You could be photographing this badass perfume commercial one day then the next day you have an adorable family portrait photo-session in the morning and a 21st birthday party at night. I love attention, not kidding at all lol :P So I am overjoyed when clients are overexcited about my passion to give clients a large amount of beautifully edited photos. We've created a bond and I really treasure that connection. They would share my facebook post, share my facebook ads onto their own timeline, their friends would click like on my biz page, they would comment and heart react to everything that I post and message me personally to thank me. It feels amazing, and that is why I love my job.
