We are the night

The photography series “We Are the Night” is a vivid exploration of Hong Kong after dark. Known for its neon signs, bustling streets, and vibrant cityscapes, Hong Kong transforms at night into a visual playground of reflections, light, and colour. This project set out to capture the unique energy of the city when the sun goes down and the skyline comes alive.

Every frame in We Are the Night tells a story through colour. From glowing reds and electric blues to shimmering pinks reflected in windows and off car bonnets. The series is an ode to the city’s dynamic spirit. Reflections in windows and glass surfaces added layers to the images, creating dreamlike compositions that highlight both the chaos and beauty of urban life.

Hong Kong is a city that never truly sleeps, and this series sought to showcase its personality beyond daylight. Crowded markets, quiet alleys, and towering skyscrapers all became canvases for light, creating striking contrasts and cinematic moods. Shooting at night presented challenges, but it also revealed a world of detail and atmosphere that can’t be experienced in daylight.
