It was only more than a year ago that I have decided to pack my bags and leave IT consulting for good. I’m a Melbourne based, accredited professional photographer who is passionate about fashion, food and film. My humble beginnings began when I stumbled upon an exquisite vintage fashion boutique (Madam Virtue & Co.) when I laid eyes on a vintage CHANEL pouch bag. When I opened my wallet to pay for it at the counter, I remember JC asking whether I was related to a famous jeweler by the name of Woo. “No” I replied, “But I’m a photographer.” It was then, I was exclusively invited to shoot Bryan Boy (early pioneer of fashion blogging) for Madam Virtue & Co. the next day. That was how my love for fashion photography began – all because of a CHANEL bag.

I’m officially on Twitter (@heykarenwoo) and Facebook (www.facebook.com/karenwoophotographer) so feel free to follow my creative journey.
