Family Photographer in Hong Kong | Locations Across the City
outdoor family photography sessions across Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, the New Territories, and outlying islands.
As a family photographer in Hong Kong, I work across the entire city: from Central and Sheung Wan to Sai Kung, Stanley, Repulse Bay, and Lantau Island.
After nearly twenty years photographing families here, I’ve learned that great family photos aren’t about perfect locations; they’re about choosing places where everyone is relaxed and there is a bit of space to explore.
This section shows the main areas where I regularly hold family photography sessions across Hong Kong.
One thing I always tell families: the location is 10% of the photo, max. Your family is the other 90%. Pick something easy for everyone, save your energy for the photos!

Central & Mid-Levels
As a Central and Mid-Levels family photographer, I have a huge number of locations to choose from on the north side of Hong Kong Island: Pottinger Street steps, Hollywood Road, The Botanical Gardens, Hong Kong Park, Stone Nullah Lane, the Asia Society grounds in Admiralty, the new Wan Chai Waterfront park.
Urban jungles to massive green spaces, all a few minutes apart.
Stanley
Murray House, the waterfront pier, ancient temples, dramatic rocks, and quiet laneways — all within a short walk of each other.
As a South Side family photographer, Stanley is one of my most-used locations: perfect for after-school sessions, and super-friendly for pet photography. Bring the dog.
Kowloon
Most families think beaches or skyline. Kowloon Park rarely comes up as a first choice. That's a mistake. Chinese pavilions, tropical gardens, a flamingo pond, a hedge maze, great light whether sunny or overcast, and kids respond to the unhurried weekday morning energy.
Add in TST waterfront, West Kowloon Cultural District, and the urban jungles of Mongkok. Take a trip to the 'Dark Side'!
Repulse Bay Beach
Most families picture sand and sea. There's that, but also a Tin Hau Temple, a pier, and a promenade north toward Deep Water Bay — enough variety that no two sessions ever look the same.
As a South Side family photographer I've been shooting Repulse Bay for nearly twenty years. Take the promenade toward Deep Water Bay and shoot on the rocks.
Sai Kung & New Territories
Sai Kung is a popular spot for Hong Kong expat family photos, but the New Territories family photographer has an incredible number of photography locations.
Tao Fong Shan in Sha Tin, Beas River Club, Clear Water Bay, Penfold Park, and the Tai Po waterfront. I'm always open to new locations!
Discovery Bay & Lantau
Discovery Bay's car-free promenade, village atmosphere and quiet beaches are perfect for relaxed sessions.
Add in the options of Mui Wo, Disneyland and Tung Chung and there is no shortage of locations. Perfect for families based on Lantau, or anyone wanting something genuinely different from a Discovery Bay Hong Kong family photoshoot.
At Home Family Session
Some of the best sessions I've ever shot have been at home — kids on their own turf, parents (and grandparents) relaxed, no commute and pet photo friendly.
As an in-home family photographer in Hong Kong, I find these sessions often produce the most natural images of all. A great escape from the Sunday crowds.
