Clients' Testimonials

"Skai has always been the sincere and under-promise then over-deliver kind of guy! He is very hardworking and passionate about photography and will make sure the shoot is well planned from the timing to the equipment and other creative elements. This also includes checking with the client if they have any preference and whether they are happy with his proposal before the day of the shoot. He has always been very adventurous and flexible at the same time, an important quality in photography to bring out the best possible results and making each project interesting and unique. Being patient and polite also makes the model feels at ease as the last thing anyone would want is to have stressed-out kind of expression in the photos!" - Gilbert Lew

Skai the Freelance Photographer

Hello! I'm Skai, and I'm proud to be a professional freelance photographer in Singapore. It's been quite a journey. One time, a client was so blown away by the effort I put into his shoot, he called me a "legend"! Pretty cool, right?

I didn't exactly plan on becoming a professional photographer. It kind of just happened. But once I picked up that camera, I was hooked. There's something about capturing moments that speaks to my soul. I've spent countless hours perfecting my skills, diving headfirst into the world of light, composition and storytelling.

But let me tell you, it hasn't all been smooth sailing. This pursuit of perfection? It comes with its challenges. I've found myself sacrificing a lot along the way. Long hours behind the lens have taken a toll on my health, and sometimes it feels like everyone wants a piece of my time. But hey, that's the price you pay when you're passionate about what you do, right?

Photography has given me the chance to meet incredible people from all walks of life, including some amazing folks from overseas. And hey, who knows what's next? All I know is, I'll be behind the lens, ready to capture whatever comes my way.

FAQ

Here are some frequently asked questions that clients may have when hiring a professional freelance photographer:

What types of photography do you specialise in?

I specialise in portrait, event, interior, wedding and corporate photography.

Can you provide a portfolio of your work?

Yes, I would love to invite you to browse through my website.

How much do you charge for your services?

My rates depend on the specific project and the services required. They are shown on the individual category pages. However, I understand that not every client is looking for a common kind of package, so it's best that I provide a quote after discussing the details of your project with you.

Are you available on the date(s) of my event?

Contact me. I will check my availability and let you know as soon as possible.

How do you deliver the final images?

I deliver the final images via digital download. I will give you a private link and you can download them from anywhere as long as you have internet access.

How long does it take to receive the final images?

The time frame for receiving the final images will depend on the specific project and my schedule. I will discuss this with you during our initial consultation.

Do you have a contract or agreement?

Yes, I have an agreement that outlines the terms and conditions of our working together.

Can I provide a shot list or request specific images?

Absolutely, I encourage clients to provide a shot list or request specific images to allow me to understand their expectations. However, do note that most photographers have their own specific photography style. Eventually, you have to look at the photographer's portfolio to see the range of work he has done.

What are the Alternatives to Freelance Photographers?

There are several alternatives to hiring a freelance photographer, depending on your specific needs and circumstances. Some options include:

• Using a smartphone or personal camera:

  If you have a high-quality smartphone or personal camera, you can take your own photos. This can be a cost-effective option if you're on a budget, but keep in mind that the quality of the photos may not be as high as those taken by a professional photographer.

• Hiring an amateur or hobbyist photographer:

  You may be able to find someone who is passionate about photography but not professionally trained. This can be a more affordable option, but the quality and consistency of the photos may not be as high as those taken by a professional photographer.

• Stock photography:

  You can use stock photography websites to purchase pre-existing photographs that can be used for your project. This can be a cost-effective and fast option, but the selection may be limited and the photos may not be unique to your specific project.

• Using a photo-taking service:

  Some companies offer photo-taking services for events or commercial purposes, usually at a lower cost than a full-fledged freelance photographer.

• Using a camera rental service:

  If you have some photography knowledge and want to take the pictures yourself, you can rent a professional camera and equipment from a rental service.

Ultimately, the best alternative to a freelance photographer will depend on the specific needs of your project, the budget and the outcome you want to achieve.
