I had to print a few! 📸🖼️ There’s something magical about holding a photograph you created in your own hands. Seeing the colors, feeling the paper. We spend so much time creating beautiful images just to let them get lost in a digital camera roll. Photographs deserve to be printed, held, framed, and remembered! If you shoot with me you have to get a print too! 😂 #kchhunphotography #nycphotographer #photographyprints #photography #eventphotographers

Took a day trip to New York City! One of the best cities in the world! I already miss it and want to be back again. 😂🗽📸✨ Did a photoshoot with the incredible Megumi Maria! A beautiful soul, model, actress, and TV host. It was such an amazing day exploring, creating art, and sharing stories. Photography has a beautiful way of bringing people from different walks of life together. Grateful for these moments, new friendships, and the opportunity to capture memories. I’m excited where my camera will take me next. Thank you, Megumi, for an unforgettable day in NYC! I feel so inspired. Until our next creative adventure! 🇺🇸🇯🇵🇰🇭❤️ Model: @megumimaria Assist: @oussa__56 #newyorkphotoshoot #nycstreetphotography #picoftoday #editorialphotography

One of those moments I’ll carry with me forever. ✨ I’m incredibly proud and grateful to be part of this unforgettable moment at New York Fashion Week. Being surrounded by so much creativity, artistry, and talent reminds me why I fell in love with fashion in the first place. Most of all, I’m proud to see Cambodian talent represented on a global stage. 🇰🇭✨ It means so much to witness a Cambodian designer @sokhangtaing bringing our creativity, culture, and artistry to the world. This is more than just fashion, it’s a moment of representation, pride, and a reminder that Cambodian talent belongs on every stage. Proud to be Cambodian. Proud to be part of this moment. And forever grateful for the memories. ❤️🇰🇭 Designs by: @almee.lii Model: @melia.cstn @destinyseymour_ Photographer: @oussa__56 Location: @artheartsfashion #NYFW #NewYorkFashionWeek #CambodianDesigner #CambodianTalent #CambodianFashion Representation FashionWeek ProudlyCambodian

Khmer fashion brand Almée Couture debuted its Spring/Summer 2027 collection this week at the 2026 New York Fashion Week. Almée Couture is a Cambodian luxury couture house founded in 2024 by Taing Sokhang. Its mission is to merge Cambodian heritage with modern artistry, celebrating craftsmanship and cultural storytelling rooted in Khmer tradition while pushing contemporary design. This isn’t the first time Sokhang has presented a collection at NYFW. In January 2026, she made history as the first Cambodian fashion designer to present at NYFW. Her debut collection, “Spirit of the Forgotten,” closed the show and explored themes of time, eternity, rebirth, loss, and ancestral memory. The collection was also dedicated to her father, who passed away shortly after she arrived in New York. This year, she continues where she left off, once again representing Cambodia on the global stage of New York Fashion Week. A slew of Khmer photographers, models, and production assistants were also involved in making it all happen. When it comes to fashion, Cambodia is often associated with fast fashion and the garment industry. But, Sokhang challenges that narrative by creating pieces that tell the story of our resilient culture and taking up space as a muse for us all. To show the world — and us — that we can and do belong on the global stage. Congratulations to Sokhang and the entire team on a successful showing! Brand: @almee.lii

STILL THINKING ABOUT LAST SATURDAY!!! Our first debut pop up in the wild @sycamorebklyn 🔥 we can’t wait for our next ones in June!! (6/20 and 6/28) we had so much fun serving and sharing Khmer dishes with the community! Our menu highlighted some flavors which are specific to my hometown Kampot - Kampot dried shrimp and the famous Kampot peppers! Seeing eyes light up and glisten when folks taste flavors I grew up with filled me with such joy! I started @nins.bk as a way to connect with friends and family through Khmer food and now 5 months later we are here 🥹 I am so proud of the way we are growing and deeply grateful to everyone who has been a part of our journey! 🇰🇭❤️ See you again on Saturday June 20th!! 📸: @oussa__56 @mariaofthebear #nycpopup #khmerfood #foodpopup #brooklyneats #cambodianfood

✨From surviving to thriving. We are becoming.✨ That was the theme of the first ever @khmerdiasporaconference organized by Dr. Christine Su @khmergenerations. Here are clips from interviews I captured over this magical weekend of connection and inspiration. Never have I walked into a room not knowing anyone (except some online) and felt so at home. I went there to be in community and left with a full heart. To be in rooms filled with artists, writers, intellectuals, leaders, the very people the Khmer Rouge targeted, was empowering. Thank you @ani_v @oussa__56 @lidamix @lthach27 @beyondthemekong @one.naga @pichchendabaopoet for agreeing to share a bit about yourselves. Even though it was 3 days, I didn’t connect with as many people as I’d hoped. I’m grateful to have met so many incredible people not named here though. You can find the full mini interviews in the latest episode of Khmer Voices, available on your favourite podcast app!

I’ve been reading everyone’s reflections from the Khmer Diaspora Conference. The photos. The gratitude. The connections. I felt all of that too. But I didn’t want it to end there. So I followed up. Thank you notes. Messages. Meeting up in Bryant Park. Video calls. Emails of support. Sharing photos. Commenting. Reaching back out. Leaving the door open. I also wrote about what moved me. About Pou Leth Oun. About Taste of the Land film. My way of holding onto what I felt before it faded. None of this was complicated. But none of it was automatic either. Community doesn’t sustain itself because we had a meaningful weekend. It sustains because someone follows up. I’ve tried to build community before. It doesn’t always stick. But that doesn’t mean we stop trying. If we’re talking about the next 50 years, it won’t be shaped by one conference. It will be shaped by what we do after we go home. One message. One follow-up. One conversation at a time. That’s how I’m trying to keep it alive. If we haven’t connected yet, my door is open 🤍 #KhmerDiaspora #KhmerCommunity #KeepItAlive #CommunityBuilding #KhmerAgain 📝 Longer musing on my Substack: After the Conference. 🔗 in bio

2 words: holy. SHIT!!! I can't express enough how much I genuinely enjoyed being at the Khmer Diaspora Conference with everyone. It felt like I just found all my lost siblings and family. The way that I instantly clicked with everyone I met and the way that everyone else did... like so many others within the Khmer community, I don't think I've ever felt this much at home, safe, celebrated, accepted and loved for who I am within the Khmer community up until this conference. It was soo lovely to meet you all; @beyondthemekong, @mealeacollection, @ms.ratha, @thekhmercollective, @oussa__56, @sa_pi_ra, @clprojectclt, @maobeckett_resetresilient, @ddcheth, @khmervoices, @sinasam_public, @pyjammah, @calaalowell, and so many more of you I can't fit here. Every conversation I had and witnessed at the conference, I felt honored and seen. Honored to be with others who've been down the path I walk, with others like me in so many ways that I didn't know were out there. To let alone be connected with ALL of you 🥹 There was laughter, grief, tears, and every other deep emotion that accompanies the weight of being Khmer. It felt like we all came together to collectively acknowledge this weight we all felt we carried alone, and together we embraced ourselves and each other as brethren. It felt like no matter what walk of life we all come from, we were all accepted and seen for who we were. Previously, I had so much doubt if I would even be accepted and included because of my experiences of judgment and shame growing up whenever it came to the Khmer community that I found that many of us share. But meeting everyone at the con, I truly felt like I lost a layer of something that held me back. I really sincerely felt like I have just finally found... home. With every single person I met. With all of you. Thank you for touching me in a way that I'd always yearned for as a 2nd gen Khmer kid. You all have shown me that we all really do have a place in being Khmer no matter how or what we are. Thank you @khmerdiasporaconference for this unforgettable event, you're truly the best. Thanks @sam_hy_1977 for picking my logo for 2nd place and thank you everyone who came & bought my art 💗
