Karen Sherwood
Karen grew up in Australia, in the seaside city of
Warrnambool (she won’t take offence if you’ve
never heard of it!). After a blissful childhood of
beach, books, imagination and travel – including
stints in the UK and US – she attended university
in Melbourne. Unsure of what one does with
a degree in international relations and medieval history, she then went
backpacking until a cash shortage saw her working at an investment
management firm in London. Whilst there, she interviewed the dashing British
analyst who later became her husband. A travel-obsessive with a penchant
for moving house, Karen jumped at the chance to accompany him to Hong
Kong. Plans for the future include a second child, a publishable novel and
finally winning an argument with her four-year-old.
Melanie Adamson
Melanie grew up just outside of Toronto, where
her passion for photography began at the tender
age of ten and has not waned since. In 2001, a
move to Hong Kong allowed her to pursue her
dream job on a full-time basis and building her
own studio became a reality. She loves to capture
families, bumps, babies, teens and everything in between.
Melanie is also passionate about travel and she takes advantage of every
opportunity to see the world and capture her unique perspective of it from
behind the lens. With 60 countries on the passport, she is heading towards her
goal of visiting 100 countries. Melanie and her husband have two daughters,
ages ten and 12, and they continue to be her source of inspiration every day.
