Leo Yu- the Master of Light

Leo Yu – an established, well-celebrated name in the Hong Kong photography industry. An active man in the advertising and entertainment industry, Leo founded the Blue Hydrant photographic studio in 1993 – a base and atelier where he dedicates his energies into capturing images of devotion, as well as juggling with a hectic schedule whereby he produces creative photo shoots for his often high-profile advertising, fashion and celebrity clients. Leo has since won himself a well-earned reputation, as well as international awards and honors.

Like a magician who amazes with his tricks of light and shadow, Leo has, throughout the years, mastered a state-of-the-art skill in the use of light, such that he has developed a signature style whereby one can literally feel his passion for life in his work. He finds himself equally devoted to the practicalities of projecting the desired, optimal message for his commercial clients, as well as always putting a piece of himself – his optimism especially, into his work, such that what is presented is always commercial and yet full of character.
