We met as two creatives chasing our own paths, a filmmaker and a photographer who happened to see the world in similar ways. What started with a shared love of storytelling grew into a partnership in life and work. Travel, art, and building projects together became the flow of our days. Zen & Bae grew out of that rhythm, not as a brand but as a story of what it means to create and grow together.

Klaye is the creator of The Change System, a platform focused on mindfulness, awareness, and building a life with intention. A filmmaker, photographer, and storyteller, he has spent years exploring how creativity and self-awareness shape the way we live and grow. His work blends practical insight with real-world experience, and is reflected in his book, Change Happens Now.
Zen & Bae is bigger than the two of us. It is the idea that in any relationship, each of us has the chance to be both the calm and the love for one another. When someone asks who is Zen and who is Bae, the answer is simple: we both are. Anyone who resonates with that philosophy is part of the story. Zen & Bae is a collective, a community of people who believe in love, travel, creativity, and the everyday work of building a life together.
