Suellen, My Friend, Teacher, and Support Suellen is the first person that I hung out with when I first moved to United States, 11 years ago. She is an elementary teacher who lived across the street. My English was pretty bad at that time, I could barely put together a sentence. My oldest daughter, Katie, and her daughter, Macy, were very close in age to each other. She always invited Katie and me to her house and let the girls play together. We cooked, had dinner, played games, and the girls took bubble baths together. Because of all the activities that we did together, my English speaking skills ...

Gorgeous Maternity Session After The Rain
Sneak Peek! After a whole week of rain, we finally see the sun shining bright on Tuesday morning. I got to meet S family at the J.C. Raulston Arboretum for a maternity session. K is expecting her 2nd baby girl this December! I LOVE how she put together the outfit for the photoshoot. She said she didn’t know how to pose for pictures but after seeing her in front of the camera, she must have been talking about someone else! She did great and looked so natural in front of the camera. And yes, she is gorgeous and beautiful. I also got to meet the soon-to-be big sister, Miss O. She was so much fun to work with and so ...

Meet My Family!
Often times, my clients want to know more about me and my background. This post will let you get to know more about me. My name is Zoe Lam, the founder and main photographer of Zoe Zen Photography since 2007 and became Zoe Zen Photography, LLC in 2012. Due to my company name, many people confuse that my last name is “Zen”. The reason I initially chose “Zen” instead of my last name was due to the feeling and emotions photography brought me. Zen is defined many ways but the overall meaning is the concept of reaching complete focus and peace. This is what photography gifted me. Photography brought me so much joy and ...
TBT: Jason & Vickie Wedding
It was five years and six days ago, the day of Jason & Vickie’s wedding. I was the lucky one behind the camera who got to photograph this beautiful wedding at a quiet, private barn with some horses around us. The gorgeous sunlight shining through my camera lens created the perfect lighting during the ceremony. Daddy held Vickie’s hand walking down the aisle and carried her to the perfect man in her life. I would like to share some of the pictures from this special day. I can’t believe it have been five years already! Happy anniversary to Jason and Vickie! Five years down and many more to come! ...
