For people who are not used to being photographed
I photograph weddings and the awkward, unrepeatable minutes around them. No posing marathon, no stiff line-ups. We keep it fun, and the pictures end up looking like you.
Wedding & portrait photographer · Bali · Jakarta
Selected work
Six frames. Full galleries on request.
How I work
Four things I say out loud before every shoot, so nobody has to guess what the day will feel like.
- 01
Photography should be fun
If the day feels like a chore, it shows in every frame. My job is partly to keep the mood light.
- 02
I value spontaneity and randomness
The shot list gets covered. Everything past that is whatever actually happens, which is the good part.
- 03
Your photography should be personal
No recycled poses. What we make should be unusable for anyone else's wedding.
- 04
Awkward × awesome = awksome
Afraid of being awkward in front of the camera? Good. That is the raw material.

Kind words
“Had a fun and friendly family photoshoot session with Govinda. The final results are beyond expectations. Highly recommended.”

“He never once told us to stand still and smile, and somehow those are the photos our parents printed.”

Check your date
One form, and it reaches me with everything I need to answer properly: the date, where you are, and what kind of day it is. No back-and-forth just to find out if I am free.
I reply to every enquiry within two working days.
