Hi there! I am Ashley J (“memorytxture”, she/her), a multimedia artist and cultural translator based in Hong Kong. Since March 2024, I have welcomed and made friends with 350+ clients from 50+ countries and received a 100% five-star rating.
//Important Notes//
1. I do film photography. The package includes the cost of film roll and minimum 12 edited photos in 5 days. I'll send you a download link of the photos (scanned and turned into digital copies) within 5 days. Film photography has a unique colour and texture which is especially suitable for Hong Kong night views, i.e. neons, illuminated streets, markets, Wong Kar-wai style.
2. I also do proposal / engagement / elopement / prewedding photoshoots, please directly contact me for these.
3. Don't hesitate to directly contact me even if your time is tight, the time can be very flexible, from 30-minute up to several days!
4. The weather in Hong Kong can be quite unpredictable, and I can not proceed the photoshoot if it rains heavily. We can keep in contact and decide together if you prefer to (1) reschedule the photoshoot or (2) shorten the photoshoot or (3) do an indoor photoshoot instead or (4) cancel the photoshoot. Thank you for your understanding!
//Introduction//
Nighttime Hong Kong has such unique vibes that I am still deeply attracted to it after 12 years living here. I know this city very well including all the good spots to shoot (alleys, footbridges, neon signs, rooftops, parks, all kinds of buildings, etc.)
I am super easy to talk with and will really want to discuss with you & know your preference before the photoshoot to suit your needs. I love to customize every photoshoot and every tour because every one of you is unique.
If you don't have any preference, it's perfectly fine as well! Just leave it to me. Let me take you to the most popular and most remarkable places like Central / Sheung Wan in Hong Kong Island or Mong Kok / Yau Ma Tei (near Temple Street) / Sham Shui Po in Kowloon.
Book a photoshoot with me and let it be the most memorable souvenir you give to yourself!
//More about me//
I am a multimedia artist, literature teacher, hardcore lover of Hong Kong, and researcher in Hong Kong Cultural Heritage (i.e. from street food to cuisines, from religions to traditional festivals, etc.) and East Asian culture.
I have been living in Hong Kong for 13 years and I care about this city deeply. I am super easy to talk with and want to make sure you enjoy the process as well as the results (photos). I work both with people who have zero experience with photos and professional models/performers. It's completely fine if you feel a bit nervous/shy in the beginning, but I'm sure it'll be a fun experience once we start chatting and walking around!
I have been making genuine friends all over the world through photography. I can't wait to meet up with you!
