Rachel grew up in Singapore from a background in media and advertising. Having shot on both film and digital, she seeks to explore the fine line between the narrative and commercial world.
As one of the few female cinematographers in Singapore, Rachel’s graduation short film HAN won her the Laszlo Kovac Golden Tadpole in the Student Etude Competition at the Camerimage Festival in 2016, a unique international festival devoted to cinematography in Poland. In 2017, after being awarded the IMDA scholarship, she gained admission into two prestigious international film schools – the National Film and TV School (NFTS), U.K. and the American Film Institute Conservatory (AFI), U.S.A. to do her Masters in Cinematography, choosing the former.
She now moves between Singapore and London and she hopes to be able to lend her voice in more works as an image-maker.
