(About Leon.)
I've spent years learning to notice the moment before it's obviously the moment.
I've had a camera in my hand since school, class photos, travel shots, whatever the light did that day. It stayed a side thing for years while I built a career in software, and this year, once that finally felt stable, I made it official and started shooting professionally. These days that means prewedding, graduation, and family sessions around Jakarta.
Shooting nature and streets first is probably why I never warmed up to flash. Natural light already carries a mood before you do anything to it, you just have to notice it and wait for the moment that goes with it. I find the light, then get out of the way once the real moment happens.
The rest of my time goes to writing software, which sounds unrelated but isn't. The same attention that catches a bug catches the split-second before someone stops posing. Different tools, same habit.
I also shoot as a freelancer for other teams and studios when the job calls for it. You can also book me directly, under my own name, if you'd rather deal with just one person.
(What I bring.)
Prewedding, graduation, and family sessions, plus candid, BTS, event, and sports coverage on request.
Short behind-the-scenes and highlight clips alongside the stills, on request.
Lightroom for color and tone, Premiere Pro for video, Photoshop for retouching, all done in-house.
Software work on a freelance basis, web and mobile apps, applied AI, and automating whatever's eating your team's time, my other trade as a software engineer.
Got a project that fits any of this?
