WELCOME!

It never cease to amaze me when someone stays in the same place and I took the same picture over and over and it would be different, every single frame. Photography is so wonderful, so powerful, so amazing. It makes me happy, and it keeps me happy. It is a magical world.

Hi, my name is Ai Ling and I am a photographer in Minnesota. This blog is where you will see my most recent work and a little bit on what's going on in my life.

The heart of my photography is the people, and the honest interactions I can capture. It is so much more than just a click of the shutter - it's the smiles, the tears, the laughs, the little moments in lives that mean the most. Seeing the big smiles on peoples' faces when they look at the photographs makes my heart sing. That's what I want to devote my life to.

Feel free to come in, look around and leave me a message (you know us photographers love comments!).

Have an awesome day!

Cheers,
Ai Ling

I recently met up with My Choi, creator and founder of PaperThick Ink to do some product photography for her website. My also happens to be one of my 2009 brides. So when My asked me to shoot her paper goods I was more than honored to!

My had some amazing paper for me to shoot so I took to the task of keeping with the tone of the pieces she had produced. Still photography does not have to be boring — shooting inanimate objects allow you to really be creative. The possibilities are endless. With the PaperThick Ink suites we played around and had a blast experimenting with different looks.

As much as I admire Ansel Adams, I never fancied myself a landscape photographer. I took my new 14-24mm lens out for a spin and got these images. They turned out pretty decent, in my opinion. : )

I love my converse. I really do.

Six minutes exposure star trails. Fish eye lens on a full frame D3… sweet!

Midnight. The moon over Lake Superior. 30 seconds exposure.

I am just thankful I didn’t get pneumonia and die because I thought I was being so cool by taking these shots out on the balcony, barefoot and only in my pajamas.
I know I know. I am cool like that.
