Trees, my medicine // Victoria BC Fine Art Wedding Photographer

March 17, 2013 by Lin Chen Photography

” Trees are poems that earth writes upon the sky… “ I believe trees have spirits~ They whisper to us , shelter us, and sometimes playfully move through us…When we are blue, trees keep us company like no other. In the darkest moments, I would wander in the woods, seeking for serenity and peace. Your stillness speaks to me. Yes you have stood on this earth for so long, have seen the clouds leaving behind little traces of summer ~ […]

Rainy day, by the singing sea // Victoria BC Fine Art Wedding Photographer

March 15, 2013 by Lin Chen Photography

Does the rain ever make you frown? … don’t be. It sings, the rain drops sings on the surface of the sea if you listen. So just go, bring your brightest, happiest umbrella and just go. Lucky me, living on a island, breath the ocean air. On a rainy day, I love to take my pink umbrella with me, jumping through the rocks by the beach, listen, watch the waves and paint with my camera. Lucky me Here to share […]

Masala Chai or Coffee ? // Victoria BC Fine Art Wedding Photographer

March 6, 2013 by Lin Chen Photography

One thing I grew to love and can’t stop loving after 10 days in India is the legendary Masala Chai. The street corner chai has been a absolute must with the rising sun, almost first thing if you are lucky enough.The sweetness and creaminess is god sent. If one day I pack my bag across the pacific to live in India, chai would be one of the reason. No doubt about it. So as legend has it, over 9000 years […]

Indian Ocean // Victoria BC Fine Art Wedding Photographer

February 28, 2013 by Lin Chen Photography

“Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson How does Ocean makes you feel ? Does it take your pain away. Does it make you feel small. Does it set you free!?It’s tremendous power embraces you, dilute your overactive mindless thinking~ endless waves, tides , white glimpse of happiness. “The Indian Ocean has a different smell” Jen says. I tried to smell it. It certainly is not like the cold, salty Pacific. Indian […]

Color of India // Victoria BC Fine Art Wedding Photographer

February 25, 2013 by Lin Chen Photography

What makes your heart sing? love, adventure, nature, hot chocolate in a winter day by the ocean? Travel is my thing. Always have been , always will be! undeniable, on the top of my travel list. INDIA. It’s been in my dreams many many times. The color, the scent, the faces and above all the obscure burst of randomness, dizzying intensity of religion and culture. My days in India were way too short, barely scratched the surface of it all. […]

A humble ophanage in southern India – a story of loss and love // Victoria BC Fine Art Wedding Photographer

February 19, 2013 by Lin Chen Photography

“Love heals people– both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.” -Karl Menninger It was in the Lonely Planet guide book, we discovered couple of orphanages near by the seaside village – Mamallapuram in South India. Growing up as the only child in a happy family in Metropolitan Shanghai, I have been blessed with love and attention as a kid. The idea of visiting a local orphanage surfaced and we hired a auto rickshaw to get […]

Bei & Jeremy // Victoria BC Fine Art Wedding Photographer

February 18, 2013 by Lin Chen Photography

“Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but looking in the same direction together.” It’s so true in this amazing couple. Both left home at a young age to pursue higher education overseas. Both returned to their hometown in China as young entrepreneurs devoted to the Childhood Education. When two souls have the same passion and drive towards a common goal, an intense bond forms within months…. How do I know so much about them? Let’s be honest […]

Cheri,open heart // Victoria BC Fine Art Wedding Photographer

January 13, 2013 by Lin Chen Photography

Cheri is a wild Sagittarius soul. We connect on so many level- the love of adventures, people, travel and speak up when injustice rises. Above all we both love boldly and deeply every single time! Doesn’t matter if we ended up to be broken pieces, and keep cracking inside. As human, the most satisfying thing is to connect with another human. We are all afraid of being alone on this earth for the brief time we are here. When we […]
