THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR - THE PERSON BEHIND

 

William Lim Way Liam is an experienced photographer despite his young age. Started taking photographs professionally at 18 when he was pursuing his Diploma in Graphic Design, he has change under his belt, 8 years of experience in weddings, events, 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.

When he’s not snapping photos, he’ll be strumming his guitar in churches, performances, and at home. An extremely talented guitarist, he played alongside before with our Malaysia very own violinist extraordinaire, Joanne Yeoh. He also enjoys helping out with charitable organization during his free time.He conceptualized AfterBefore as a channel for his creative output as well as an opportunity to realize his pursuit of photography. He sincerely believes that photography is not just about capturing the moments but also represents a transformation from Before to After.
