DOCUMENTING LIFE’S BEST
At House of Philemon, we aspire to document your life’s best, where memories and milestones will be captured in its most authentic form — all while having a good time! All you need to do is turn up, be yourself, and leave the rest to us.
WHILE THERE ARE NUMEROUS PHOTOGRAPHY STUDIOS OUT THERE, HERE’S WHAT SETS US APART:
effortless authenticity
We capture what you would expect, but look out for so much more — secret laughters, knowing looks, hushed whispers — we believe that these raw moments are what makes your story yours, and know you would fondly look back on them in years to come.
experienced team
We understand that photoshoots may be a novel experience for you, and that can sometimes be overwhelming. If it is your big day, there would already be much on your mind.
We have had the privilege of capturing pre-wedding highlights, actual-day weddings, first birthday celebrations, amongst many others — and intricately understand the hopes and challenges that come with each. We innately notice the details that the average eye may miss so you can be rest assured that the best of your day will be thoroughly captured, and your mind can be set at ease.
enduring memories
Planning and preparing for your special day has surely been effortful, so memories on the day of must be preserved. The fact is that after the day is over, it is the special moments in your heart and in your photos that remain. The shots that we capture will enable future generations to wholly relive the day with you, and feel like it was only just yesterday that love and laughter was shared.
easy time
We know that it is not every day that you would have photographers documenting your life, and understand if you may feel apprehensive at first. Our style of shooting will put you at ease, and our team will soon feel like long-time friends. No stuffiness, no awkwardness, just an all-round good time for you.
eclectic style
We draw inspiration from the every day moments of life, but nostalgia captured in film is what excites our team and sets us apart. If that excites you too, you can trust us to work our magic to spin your modern-day digital images to have a timeless film-like aesthetic. If film is not your thing, not to worry — we have a range of colour grading styles for you to choose what suits you best.
THE HOUSE OF PHILEMON TEAM IS LED BY JON.
HERE’S A LITTLE ABOUT HIM:
“Greetings! I am Jon, and I am the Principal Photographer at House of Philemon. I am passionate about documenting life’s best, with authenticity and connection at the heart of how I shoot. Fun fact, my folks tell me that I would have one of those old school handheld video cameras with me everywhere I went, from as young as the age of 3! While I am trained in Graphic Design, documenting life has always come naturally to me — whether shooting streetscapes on my travels, or everyday life in Singapore.
Shooting with House of Philemon has been fulfilling, and I hope to meet many more of you on this journey. When I am not photographing, I enjoy seeking out novel experiences — new food (especially anything spicy and sour), new music (from retro beats to the latest hits from TikTok), and new ways of storytelling (mostly always inspired by my favourite filmmaker Wong Kar Wai).”
