Currently based in Boston, Massachusetts, Natalie began her creative journey during the pandemic in 2020 by simply capturing mundane but precious moments of her family members and the small items that exist within an indoor space. In 2021, she became part of The Smart Local creative team as a photographer, videographer and editor, shooting documentaries, key opinion leaders, and brands like Zalora, Sephora, L'Oréal, BOSCH and more. 

Natalie further explored her creative identity during her three years at Boston University, leading editorial campaigns, magazine publication photoshoots, fashion show photography and meaningful collaborations between people of color. Heavily influenced by her work as Director of Photography for the all POC publication, Charcoal Magazine, Natalie hopes to tell the diverse storyworks that captures the idea of “Intersectionality,” and to invite safe spaces for complex conversations that tap on the ideas of gender, race, and sexuality.

Through the dreamy utopian-esque and ethereal editing style, her mind hopes to explore and create alternative curate dimensions that deep dives into specific episodes of life. Touching on themes like girlhood, east west collisions, breaking gender stereotypes and other multifaceted issues, she hopes that her creative works bring solace who those who see it.

In her spare time, you can find her dousing on a nice vanilla latte, writing short blibs in her journal or redyeing her hair blue. Feel free to reach out for all things creative, she would love to have conversations about topics surrounding gender and sexuality, Singaporean food and culture, the Shrek franchise, and Gorillas in the Zoo!
