My name is Victor and I am a Hong Kong based photographer from Toronto, Canada. I have an affinity for traveling and drawing creative inspiration from various cities and cultures. I shoot a wide range of subjects and topics, but focus my style on natural light, clean composition and unique perspectives. To all my areas of work, I apply a unique whimsical style. Some of my work has been featured in publications such as Forbes, CNN, Condé Nast, Vogue, The Telegraph, Huffington Post, GQ, and Instagram.

I started photography just as a small hobby with an iPhone 5. It was quite special, I used to shoot a lot of random outfits, food, family photos on Instagram.

Moving to Hong Kong and living in this city makes you feel small immediately. There's just so much to see and everything is built vertically since land is quite rare (and expensive). I try to capture what is called "organised chaos" where things are so dense but in a very clean setting.

The way that something so normal can be captured in a perspective that has not been thought of. A busy street, a normal commute, a building facade but shot in a perspective that is not normally seen.

Chaotic. Colorful. Crammed. I think Hong Kong offers everything from food to nature to architecture. It's basically a photographer's paradise.

Sometimes the best photos are unplanned. Such as a nice sunset, you don't expect it to turn out so vibrantly. You were just there at the right time and luckily carried a camera with you.

Because it's candid. Sometimes strangers provide you with the most interesting types of outfits, poses, and simply stand in the middle for the most pleasing symmetry.

I think it comes to having a specific aesthetic or style to your photos. Sometimes it can come down to the tones, colours, and how you composite photos that make people instantly know this is your photo.

At first, when drones first came into the market, I didn't really think of how it could be such an influential equipment to photography. I think drones have unlocked a whole new level of achieving any angle of photo you want whereas before you couldn't reach those heights.

Living in Hong Kong. It's the only place where you see so many rooftop courts. This is mainly because land is too rare to build a court on ground level so the only way is to build them on rooftops. That's why I think it's so unique. Also, there are so many different courts that are painted in their own unique way.

I first discovered this by flying a drone up into the ocean to see if there were any cool vantage views of mountains or buildings. I noticed this insanely large cargo ship and decided to see if I could follow it and it turns out it takes a whole drone battery to capture one single photo since the cargo ship may appear to be moving slowly but compared to the drone it's going at full speed!

Instagram has its good and bad side. The good side is: it lets you share your work to a big audience around the world. I also get most of my commercial work from this platform. The bad side could be that you get exhausted of seeing the same content over and over again as there's no more original work.

In a way, the pandemic forced me to explore more of my own city and travel to corners of town that I didn't even know existed!

Maybe one day I could photograph in container ports. I’ve always wanted the opportunity to photograph containers on land!
