SHIRLEY ZHONG - PHOTOGRAPHER
An avid fan for visual arts in any forms, she started young scribbling, expressing her observations and imaginations of the world on papers and old magazines.
Her relationship with photography started out much later, when she began participating in local subculture groups by taking photographs of her friends. As she gained more experience, she started branching out towards fashion and art that allowed her to create visuals based on both real lives and an imaginery world.
Her style was described as "artistic yet fashionable, with a dark alternative touch", which is the most obvious in her personal works. Over the years, she has collaborated with various modeling agencies based locally as well as overseas, designers from the SEA region, international makeup artists and fashion stylists.
Currently based in Singapore.
Available to travel worldwide.
