At home, I’m a husband and a dog dad.
At weddings, I’m more than a photographer—I’m a curator of experiences, shaping every moment to feel authentic, natural, and unforgettable.

I believe the best photos aren’t staged; they’re lived. They’re in the way your partner looks at you when no one else is watching, the burst of laughter from your friends on the dance floor, the fleeting details that deserve to be remembered.

No two love stories are the same, and your wedding deserves to be captured with the same individuality. I take the time to understand your vision and create a personalized experience—one that reflects who you are and preserves the way it all felt.

For me, photography is about more than images—it’s about curating an intentional, once-in-a-lifetime experience you’ll never forget.

My vision is to create timeless photographs that feel true to life. I believe the most powerful images come from being fully present — whether it’s a quiet glance, a burst of laughter, or the way light falls in a fleeting second.

Every story I tell is guided by honesty and care, blending candid authenticity with refined artistry. My goal is simple: to preserve your day in a way that allows you to return to it, not just with your eyes, but with your heart.

Photography is more than images — it’s presence, connection, and noticing the moments that matter most.

Vinh's Professional Bio

- jeff and vanessa

As a bride, I had so many little worries running through my head—timelines, details, and just hoping everything would come together. But with Vinh, photography was the one thing I never had to stress about. He made us feel so comfortable that we could just be present and enjoy the day. When I look at our photos now, I see the real emotions, the little glances, the happy tears—all the things I was afraid might slip by unnoticed. Vinh didn’t just give us photos; he gave us peace of mind, and that was priceless.

“Looking back, one of the biggest reliefs of our wedding day was knowing we could fully trust Vinh.”

“Vinh has a way of capturing both the grand and the quiet moments in a way that feels effortless. On our wedding day, he blended in so seamlessly that we almost forgot the camera was there — yet he somehow managed to preserve every glance, laugh, and tear. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day, not just seeing it. His photographs are timeless, filled with emotion, and something we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives.”
