Every action represents a transformation from Before to After.
An award winning photographer, William Lim Way Liam started taking photographs professionally at 18 when he was pursuing his Diploma in Graphic Design. He has changed under his belt, 12 years of experience in wedding, event, documentation and portrait photography. He believes photographing people does not exist by itself, but should be combined with good hairstyling & make-up, attire and settings of the location. He is the ideal photographer that will go the extra mile for a perfect shot.
Eccentric to the core, he always reinvents himself and his work. At an event or wedding, you’ll be impressed with his speed in capturing the most spontaneous of moments. He is swift in moving amongst the crowd, and you’ll barely notice him, except when he starts being his friendly self, interacting with your guests and taking group photos. Although graduated from Curtin University, Australia in Design Photography, he credits his skills to years of trial and error as well as experimenting with different methods. His commitment towards photography was evident when he enrolled in professional hair & make-up course to understand other areas of photography better.
He conceptualized AfterBefore as a channel for his creative output as well as an opportunity to realize his pursuit of art and design. He sincerely believes that every action represents a transformation from Before to After.
