A few fun facts about myself.
![with my parents](wes-with-parents.jpg)
I'm second generation Taiwanese-American, and my Mandarin name is "邱凡遠" which means "far from ordinary." I love bikepacking and rockclimbing, I have two cats named Byakko and Tofu, I like a nice strong soju, my favorite food is Taiwanese beef noodle soup, and I had to get stitches on my head
...once, thankfully.
I also love to photograph priceless, split-second moments. Check out some special memories that I had so much fun capturing.
“What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.” - Karl Lagerfeld
