Guiding couples to relive their love-filled moments through organic, emotive and editorial photography.

 

Art and creative expression have remained a constant in my life, but it took some time for my purpose to take shape.

In college, it was fine art and soft sculptures; then, it was graphic and exhibit design. It wasn’t until I experienced the indescribable feeling of shooting weddings that I became enamored with capturing emotions as a medium.

The extrovert in me thrived in these people (and love) filled settings—that feeling remains as strong as ever as I work with creatives and couples in bringing their stories to life.

The Story of Unique Lapin

I mean it when I say I really am a hopeless romantic.

Would you believe me if I told you my now husband and I moved to Paris for a year after dating for only three months?

Call us eternal optimists when it comes to love (or even crazy!), but

having that unconcentrated time together in a foreign place has forever laid the foundation of love for me.

My name nods to our adventure in the City of Light and my husband’s zodiac sign of the rabbit and its translation in French—lapin. It serves as a reminder of that feeling that continues to live in me and the one I aim to bring to every couple I meet.

Today, you can find me in Brooklyn raising my two daughters alongside my husband, Jeff. After becoming a mother, I realized the importance of bottling moments for families to look back on now more than ever. The first wedding I shot after maternity leave, I was overcome with a wave of emotions when I saw the first father-daughter dance.

I’ll forever be a romantic at heart. Love for me has always been this unhindered, beautiful through-line.

As a Korean with a half-Jewish and Japanese husband, the people, cultures, and places I experience and connect with around the world are what make my work so emotional vulnerable, and real. It’s the culmination of all of these organic moments of people being people that light me up.

 

Things I really love…

The smell of the air the day after it rains.

Listening (and perhaps dancing) to John Coltrane.

Ice cream and a dirty martini…but three olives, please.

Drinking icy cold drinks in super cold weather—I know.

The sound of stepping on fresh snow.

Watching deer and wild turkey from our Highmount Haus in Upstate New York.

When a wooden chopstick breaks perfectly. Yes!

Travel, but who doesn’t?!
