Words of Kindness
I deeply cherish all the friendships forged over the past 12 years. Thank you for treating me like a friend
Having Hong Ray photograph our wedding was one of the greatest parts of the whole process. From the very beginning, he was kind and considerate, working with us through all of the details. He was a complete professional and also made us feel comfortable, like we had been friends for a long time. On the day of our wedding, Hong Ray was a calm yet strong presence. He captured all of the big moments, taking beautiful shots that highlighted exactly what you want in a wedding photographer. But he also captured all of the moments of our wedding that were unique and intimate, never overlooking the magic of a small moment. We feel that this is what truly solidifies our happiness in choosing Hong Ray. He captured the spirit of our wedding day and put together photographs that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We are so happy to have been able to work with him!!
As Erica’s mom I was thrilled when she found @hongrayphotography. I was thankful that their day would be photographed in a special way. The photos are@amazing and her dad@and I could not be happier with how everything turned out. You helped us feel a part of the day on the day and now enjoying the photos. Thank you so much!
When we first saw Hong Ray's works, we knew that he was the type of photographer we wanted for our special day. We wouldn't wanna miss out having him to be our photographer and our decision to have him as our photographer was indeed one of the best choices we ever made. On the actual day of our wedding, Hong ray was very punctual. He naturally makes us feel at ease because he knew what were the best moments to capture without us knowing. This is one of the many talents he has. We just received the photos today and we are extremely pleased and delighted as the photos turned out really brilliant and natural. Looking through the photos really brings back fond memories of our special day. Working alongside with him during our wedding prep was seamless. We loved his sincerity and commitment in his works and how he goes the extra mile to ensure that everything was in order before our big day. In a nutshell, we would say that he is very friendly, very reliable and very professional. Will highly recommend to any couples out there wanting to do a wedding photoshoot! Thanks Hong Ray!
Humble, Professional and Passionate My husband and I got to know about Hong Rui through my husband's friend as he was the wedding photographer for her wedding. We really liked how natural and soft/dreamy his photographs looked and we knew that he was the guy we wanted to engage as our AD photographer. He captures the essence of the event extremely well and all our friends and family loved the pictures he took. 🙂 During the AD, we did not have to worry about the photography at all, as we left everything into his hands and to just let him do what he does best. My husband and I are really awkward in front of cameras but the photos which he took made us look otherwise hahaha. I suppose our ages being relatively near each other made it easier for us to communicate with him as well! Hong Rui is definitely passionate about his work, remains humble and takes it upon himself to improve his skills further. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who is looking for a photographer for their events 🙂 Thank you for helping us capture the beautiful moments during our big day Hong Rui! ^^
{Our adventure} Finding time to do things together has always been our struggle ever since I started work. So that's taught us to really treasure and look forward to every single moment we have together. One such special moment was captured by Hongray, a photographer who turned our engagement photoshoot into an adventure! We're not a couple who feels comfy being intimate with one another under a camera lens, but Hongray was not at all judgemental with us noobies during the photoshoot. He was patient and accommodating throughout the entire experience. He didn't give us direct instructions, instead he guided us on how to be ourselves without letting his presence unnerve us. Furthermore, I absolutely LOVES how he's able to capture the candid and genuine emotions of that moment. All my favourite candid shots have been captured by him, no seriously. I can't find a better photographer for such shots, maybe because we feel so comfortable with him around. He's become a friend, not just a photographer
Hong Ray was such a joy to work with. Despite both my partner and I having very busy schedules, he ensured that we will actually find a suitable date to make the shoot happen! I enjoyed how he tried to make my partner and I talk to each other during the shoot as we were both feeling considerably awkward. But after a few funny moments, we finally eased into it and it definitely showed through the photos. Hong Ray was also very creative in choosing a theme and location so if you are open to choices, you should trust his decision. Although I have to admit I was a bit hesitant cos it was in farm, looking at the photos made me feel super contented!!! Friendly, thoughtful, and creative, I would recommend him with 5 stars!
Hongray is one dedicated young man who's really passionate about what he's doing, and it shines through in his work. We love how his photos capture emotions perfectly. Whenever we feel like reliving our big day, all we have to do is to look through the photos :') Hongray was recommended to us by my husband's sister & cousin, who were both impressed by his work. We're so glad that we went ahead with their recommendation, and now we can't wait to recommend him to our friends & relatives too!
l knew hongray through instagram when searching through pre-wedding shoots. l fell in love with hongray's shooting style at first sight. It's natural yet elegant. Soon l contacted hongray and booked my pre-wedding shoot session. On the actual day,hongray did his best to make sure my boyfriend and me as comfortable as we can be. He even went for the extra mile buying us snacks and drinks. My boyfriend planned a secret marriage proposal on that day without hongray knowing either. It was out of a sudden seriously. However,hongray demonstrated his excellent shooting skills even though he was not mentally and physically prepared too. The proposal shoots turned out really fantastic. Hongray even edited the proposal shoots during that night and sent to us next day morning. We felt really grateful for your hard work. Thank you hongray for capturing the most beautiful day in our life...
The 1st time I found Hongray in IG, I immediately in love with his shots! Hongray is a wonderful, easy-goin and super friendly photographer I have ever met. We would not hesitate to recommend to any one about him. My fiance and I were initially very worried about our pre-wedding photos and shoots and how they'd turn out as we are both not the most comfortable in front of a camera. We were very stiffs until we met Hongray! He made us so comfortable and helped us with some conversation to capture the perfect amount of candid photos and even included some very funny ones that sum up our relationship perfectly. Oh! Not forgetting he's not just amazing but he took care of us and brought some drinks and snacks in case we went hungry. Haha.. thanks for the chocolate! The only problem we have encountered is trying to choose our favourites, because there are just so many amazing shots. Thank you so much Hongray!
I got to know Hong Ray when I was a bridesmaid at my friend's wedding, and I did not hesitate to engage him for my own. Hong Ray was our photographer for both our pre-wedding shoot and actual day. My husband and I love his spontaneous personality, sincerity and him taking the effort to research on different interesting places for our shoot. Hong Ray is excellent at capturing raw emotions through candid shots, and we love his style because his photos always look natural, not posey at all. My husband and I received loads of compliments from our guests on the photos. We'd definitely recommend Hong Ray to anyone who's looking for a wedding photographer
It was a fun time with Hong Ray exploring places that were off the beaten track; some of which were interesting finds. Hong Ray also helps you feel comfortable through the shots with his ideas and creativity. We also did some quirky poses! Particularly, we liked that he came prepared with sparkles which really led us to enjoy the moment while bringing out our playful emotions! The photos turned out really vibrant and natural and we really liked the vibes. We really enjoyed getting our photos taken by Hong Ray!
I had the pleasure of working with Hongray on my wedding day. His professionalism and talent are second to none. He's so easy to work with and his photos are amazing. It's evident that he knows how to handle any situation thrown at him, very flexible and able to make us feel completely at ease! He goes above and beyond to capture sensational images. Received a lot of compliments from friends after seeing his work too! I feel beyond privileged and would recommend him to anyone and everyone! Keep up the amazing work Hongray!

My Husband and I really enjoyed the whole pws process. The whole experience was really comfortable and did not feel a bit awkward at all. Thank you for bringing us and exploring places we did not know exist in singapore. We have also received good reviews from our friends when we showed them the pictures too. Also, he was really thoughtful to bring snacks and drinks despite carrying the heavy camera gears along with him. Definitely excellent service, experience and pocket friendly! We definitely engage him again for future occasions and introduce him to our friends!

We engaged Hongray’s photography service for our actual day wedding in November 2018. If you’re looking for someone to capture the emotions of the day, he is the person to go to. Hongray stands out as a humble, sincere guy who tells wonderful stories through his lenses. Amidst all that actual day wedding frenzy, he managed to capture so many special moments that we did not even notice on the day itself, only to make our hearts swell with warmth when we look back at them months later. He is also super versatile and easy to work with considering he had to fight for good angles with three other videographers present that day, just to capture those amazing shots. All in all, very pleased and grateful for his work. Highly recommend!
We met Hong Ray at his studio for the very first time to look at his portfolio as well as discuss about our ideas and expectations of our wedding photos. The whole progress was fun and comfortable, with no hard sell and pressure. He is willing to listen to ideas and our preferences. We engaged him for our AD wedding photographer. And he was the only one we engaged (not bothered to hire any videographer) ! You can imagine how much trust we have in him to deliver pictures that captures the heart and soul of our very special day! His style is very different from the other photographers that we met. Before the AD, he asked us to prepare a document which includes the pictures of any one important in our lives who's attending the wedding - so that he can remembers who to capture during the AD.

I 1st saw HongRay’s work in a wedding show. After looking through his work and talking to him, I know that he’s the PG that I would like to have for both my casual shoot and wedding AD. I’m really impressed by his ability to capture the genuine emotions of people that matters to me. His pictures will definitely allow me to remember those precious moments shared with my family and friends on the actual day. He also makes us feel really comfortable throughout the day. During the adventure shoot, it rained halfway, though it’s just 3hr, he did not purposely push through it just to complete the work, instead he offered to do a separate 1hr shoot for us in another location of our choice. And one of my favourite photos came from that shoot. His dedication to his work is admirable, and with his commitment to produce good work, he wouldn’t disappoint. He not only took nice photos for us, most importantly he created nice memories for both my Husband and I by bringing us to the less visited places in Singapore. I would definitely recommend him to anyone, and that I’m confident he will get the job done well!
We were deeply impressed by Hong Ray 's mesmerising works. He took such great pre-wed pictures that you wouldn't know that those places existed in Singapore. We took up a cycling pre-wedding package and a actual day wedding package. The cycle pre-wedding shoot landed us in Bukit Timah on a hot and humid weekday afternoon and to our surprise, he prepared snacks, 100 plus and portable fans for us to combat the heat. Kudos to his service and preparations! Furthermore, we were supposed to take pictures near a large tree which was now overgrown with knee-high weeds and bushes. To make it easy for us to walk over, he used his bicycle to clear a walking path just like how people do bush-clearing. His impeccable service which makes you appreciate and endear him to your heart even more. Needless to say, his enthusiasm and authencity shine through both during the actual wedding day photos and the collection of the photos. The actual wedding day photos came off mesmerising. The photos were so on-point, capturing the deep emotions that our parents conveyed,the sadness of seeing one's child leave their side and forming their own families, which even we ourselves missed out. During the collection of the photos, the general expectations would be one of a transactional exchange: you have a look at your photos and if it's okay, just proceed to pay for it and leave. Fortunately, Hong Ray does not makes it that way. It's done in a very soothing ambience, whereby you can slowly look through your pictures and even chat with him about the photos, the actual wedding day events and even about your personal life. Furthermore, the photos were given to us in a personalised wooden box with your wedding details in it which makes you greatly appreciative of his efforts. If you would like just a good photographer, I am sure there are alot of choices out there. But if you want a personalised photographer who could well become your friend, is meticulous to details, authentic, professional and enthusiastic, there wouldn't be a better choice than Hong Ray.
Engaged Hong Ray for my casual pre wedding shots and AD and totally love the photos! For the pre-wedding shots, the photos are very artisitc yet natural, and we used them as part of our home deco. During the shoot, Hong Ray was helpful in guiding us to be more natural by asking us to recall our memories. He also has certain knick knack in finding artisitic angles. Hong ray's forte is in capturing raw emotions. Why we decided to engage him was because I actually cried looking at some of this previous portfolio. So much feels!!! While my family, friends and myself didn't get too emotional on my AD, Hong Ray managed to capture quite a fair bit of joyfulness in the photos. It's very commical and I felt so happy looking al all the photos. Would highly recommend Hong Ray too all brides and grooms. In fact 2 of my sisters are already engaging him for their special days!
Hong Ray is an extremely fun and bubbly photographer who made the shoot extremely enjoyable. We got to know Hong Ray through instagram when he dm-ed me, asking if we were interested in taking a few shots. Since we were given a rare opportunity, we agreed and exchanged contact numbers. Hong Ray was very patient and accommodating as he planned carefully when to meet up when we were both free. During the shoot, even though we were inexperienced and not used to being shot professionally, Hong Ray did not make things awkward and tried to make us loosen up ny prompting us to just be ourselves and taking candid photos. He also guided us by making us think about our happy moments as a couple to make us smile blissfully. We are extremely thankful and grateful for this opportunity for the photoshoot. The photos were extremely beautiful and we really love them together with the whole experience. It is definitely something we will remember for life as we look back at these photos.
My husband and I got to know about Hong Rui through my husband's friend as he was the wedding photographer for her wedding.

I found Hong ray through a recommendation in Facebook. When I saw his pictures, I just couldn't stop myself from looking at them. I love the colour and warmth in it. As I saw my wedding pictures, I felt that he stopped those moments in a picture, and they are just so genuine and beautiful. What impressed me the most was how much effort he put into our only 3 hours session. It felt like we were his first customer. My friend who drove us during the wedding day even commented - Wah, first time I saw a photographer leaves last… Hong Ray brought a lot of fairy lights and he set it up on his own. So after we were done, he still needs to clear up everything by himself. Overall, I'd say he's one of the best decision I made for my wedding! Will totally recommend him!!
We chose Hong Ray as our wedding photographer because his photos had a good heartwarming vibe to it. And it was a choice well made- the photos were stunning! Professionalism aside, I believe it was also because of his jovial & happy personality that he was able to draw out the best moods from us. Lots of fun and laughter working with him. highly recommend!
Hi Hong Ray Thank you again for a brilliant day and was great meeting you!! Thank you for all your hard work today and being so patient with us! We definitely enjoyed every moment of it. Thanks for making Niall come out of his comfort zone and actually take pictures for a change. We can't thank you enough for doing this kind gesture for us. Keep in touch, and let us know if you'd like to explore Perth or chill out! Enjoy the cold weather 🙂
I met with Hong Ray this evening to view and collect my wedding photos. I must say, the actual photos turned out way better than I expected! Hong Ray was a joy to work with on my wedding day. He is humble, down-to-earth, and really puts his heart into capturing beautiful moments (it's evident from his photos). He captured a lot of heartfelt, emotional, and candid moments... I was pleasantly surprised to see some of the shots as I was not aware that he was taking them at all. If you're a wedding couple looking for someone with a true passion for photography, I would highly recommend Hong Ray to you! Thanks, Hong Ray for the amazing shots! 🙂
