A Passion for Love and Storytelling
Nick Chau’s journey into wedding photography began with a camera and an insatiable curiosity for visual storytelling. His career started in wedding videography, where he learned to see events unfold with a cinematic perspective. However, his artistic instincts soon led him to explore the intricate compositions of wedding photography. Armed with a Canon 30D, he began capturing weddings and modelling events, receiving overwhelming praise that encouraged him to take his passion to the next level. Through years of dedicated apprenticeship and volunteer work, he refined his skills, blending cinematic vision with a keen eye for photojournalism.
“I have had the honour of witnessing hundreds of wedding vows throughout my career,” says Chau. “Committing to someone is one of life’s most rewarding experiences. Love is not always easy, but it is always worth it. That is why I love what I do.”
