Ready to escape the ordinary?

Let our Hanfu photography experience take you on a journey back in time.

Indulge in an imaginative escapade to ancient China, where you’ll explore the cultural significance of traditional attire and be fully immersed in its timeless beauty.

Our personalized approach to styling and expert direction ensure that you bring home images that are one of a kind - customised to suit your unique traits.

Our Process

  • It all starts with getting to know you. Through a short questionnaire, we’ll take note of your preferences, measurements, and get a sense of your unique personality. We’ll then send you a curated selection of hanfu styles that will bring out your best, and recommend shoot locations to suit the preferred outfits.

  • Once the session details have been finalised, a deposit will be required to secure the booking. We’ll get in touch closer to the shoot date to send you more information on the schedule and how to prepare for the experience.

  • Makeup and hair will be meticulously done on set before we dress you in the chosen outfits. During the shoot, we’ll coach you on posing and work with you to capture your best angles. Sufficient time has been planned for you to get comfortable and interact with a variety of props and accessories.

  • You will receive the full-resolution colour-edited images within two to three weeks of your session. You can then select more images for fine-editing, where we apply industry standard retouching techniques to refine skin and facial features. These polished images will be presented with options for albums and fine-art prints.

What makes us different?

At Dressed up Dreams, our passion for hanfu and belief in customised service set us apart. We specialise exclusively in photographing traditional Chinese dress, and over the years, we’ve mastered the art of capturing stunning portraits for clients of all ages and body types.

Our approach is thoughtful and tailored, rooted in research and respect for historical fashion. We don’t believe in fixed themes or cookie-cutter makeup — our styling and artistic choices take inspiration from traditional aesthetics, but are tailored to enhance your natural beauty, giving each photoshoot an authentic, polished feel.

For us, hanfu is more than a costume—it’s a traditional art form. We believe that wearing it should be an experience that connects you to its cultural heritage, making your photoshoot both meaningful and unforgettable!

  • What our clients say

    “It was easy to communicate with the photographer, Sharon on what you want out of the shoot. She was casual, yet really professional throughout the photoshoot session and I enjoyed it. Sharon was really efficient with the editing too! Great photos. Highly recommended.”

  • What our clients say

    “I had the absolute pleasure of having the chance to shoot with Sharon and Yanghui at Dressed up Dreams when I was visiting Singapore last month! Although the aesthetic I wanted was different from the norm (modern fusion) Sharon was soo accomodating and thorough in researching locations and helping me pick my dress to suit me and what I wanted to achieve!”

  • What our clients say

    “Had an amazing experience doing the Hanfu photo shoot with Dressed Up Dreams. Their selection of Hanfus are very nice. The service is excellent - was planning an outdoor shoot but they were accomodating enough to change to an indoor shoot the following day due to rainy weather. Photo edits/quality is nice too. Would recommend Dressed Up Dreams to everyone!”

  • What our clients say

    “My fiance and I were in Singapore for a couple days and wanted to get a traditional photoshoot set up. Sharon was super helpful in helping us book the appointment, picking out outfits, and everything in between! Hair, makeup, and clothes were super pretty and clean. The entire experience was so much fun and the photos turned out so good! I cannot recommend this enough. It was so much fun!”

    -MEAGAN

  • What our clients say

    “Here is probably the best studio you can ever find for Chinese (hanfu 漢服) wedding photography. Sharon's works manifest finest aesthetics and authenticity, bring the gem out of our traditional outfits. The experience throughout the process is enjoyable thanks to Sharon and her friendly and professional helpers. We love it!”
