My photography passion began while I was participating in my high school’s year book my senior year. I was a staff photographer and found joy in capturing the moments people could miss if they’re not looking too closely.
Throughout the school year, I would take my camera with me everywhere and grab moments from sporting games, student events, and school assembly’s to get as many photos as I could. I discovered that I enjoyed being in the crowd and capturing the raw and genuine moments from my peers while standing along side of them.
Capturing and sharing memories is an art that so many people can implement in their lives, and after gaining the experience with taking photographs of so many people for different occasions, I want to share that with you.
With me, you can imagine me being your hype girl, suggesting poses, and also allowing you to be in the moment by capturing your true self. I enjoy giving prompts for poses but also love suggesting movement and still moments to get those candid, genuine moments of you as you take it all in.
About Me
Hi everyone!
My name is Wonbin and I am a wedding and portrait photographer located in Denver, Colorado.
Before I tell you a bit more about myself, I want to share my photography story and why photography is a big passion of mine.
Let’s go back to the beginning…
The more I photographed these candid, in-between moments for my peers, the more I realized this was something I wanted to continue in the future with people around me because of the raw moments I got to take and share with others.
You probably heard that famous quote, “a picture is worth a thousand words,” and I believe that is true in my life. So many reactions and emotions can be captured by one click of a camera, and you can remember that moment forever. From celebrating milestones including birthdays, graduations, or weddings to getting pictures with family or friends, photos can hold so many different meanings to different people, and I love being a part of capturing moments that can last forever.

I find myself looking back at photographs from my phone and camera periodically, and am glad I usually suggest a photo to be taken because it helps me relieve a special moment in time with the people around me. From concerts, family vacations, to trips I’ve taken abroad, my phone is always full of photos to help me remember and relieve a moment in time that I might not get to experience again. And while getting to take and remember a picture, I also enjoy sharing that moment with my friends.
I will be capturing your laughs with friends, celebrating graduating school with champagne pops, sharing sweet moments with your partner, to crying and smiling with your loved ones on your special wedding day. I want to help capture and remember this moment with you so you can keep it and relive it in the future. Not only will I be taking photos, I will be asking you questions about you so I can listen to your story, and help bring your personality and shine to the session so you are comfortable and confident with me. Expect me to not only be your photographer, but a friend you can gain during and after the session too.
