Aubrey Mae

soft light, quiet moments.

Hi — I’m Aubrey Mae, a hobby photographer shooting portraits, editorial work and quiet travel photos on film. I chase soft light and the candid, in-between moments in places like Lisbon, Porto, Copenhagen and the Algarve — and keep my favourite frames here.

Nice to meet you

just someone who loves chasing good light

I take photos on trips, on weekends, whenever something catches my eye. No clients, no deadlines — just the fun of it.
