Amelia, local photographer in Penang

Style:

Documentary, relax, candid and fun.

Likes:

I like to capture people’s laughter/giggles because it makes me happy too. Practising yoga is one of my favourite things to do besides photography. Traveling keeps me constantly inspired hence I always desire to explore wild and offbeat destinations.

Recommended places:

I’ll go ahead and say it: Penang is the most picturesque city in Malaysia. From the whitewashed colonial era buildings in George Town to spectacular coastal views. We can hunt down the colourful street murals of Armenian Street and Chulia Street, soak in the artistic vibes at the abandoned Hin Company Bus Depot, take a picture with the whitewashed walls of one of Penang’s oldest Catholic churches: The Church of the Assumption, embrace the heritage of one of Penang’s oldest Chinese clans at the Khoo Kongsi, ask for blessings at the majestic Kek Lok Si Temple, wonder about life’s musings at the edge of the water at the scenic Tan Jetty, catch an alluring sunset at Batu Ferringhi Beach or stare out into the open ocean at Kerachut Beach.
