This month is a month of Bar Mitzvah for me, I have a total of five bar mitzvah ceremonies and parties to shoot. The first one is James ‘s on last Sunday. I am so happy to see Fiona ‘s family again, I love them so much !!!

The theme of the evening was "Fire and Crystal", the whole ballroom of AMC was partitioned into two areas – "Fire" and "Crystal". When I asked Fiona who is the decoration company, I was so surprised when she told me that she didn’t hire any decoration or event company and she designed all by herself — amazing !!!!!

the celebration — James and Father dancing on the table !!!! So excited !!!! It was lucky that I could capture this pic — once they started to do that, you ‘d be in the middle of the crowd and you couldn’t move at all. [......]

I shot the wedding of Angie and Martin last Saturday at AMC.

As they already had the ceremony at Thailand a few months ago, we had plenty of time in the morning and our original plan was having outdoor location shooting from 9:00 am – 3:00 pm. However, as the weather was very bad, we decided to cancel it finally

When I arrive at Aberdeen Marina Club (AMC) in the afternoon, it was still raining. But we decided to go out for a while. It ‘s interesting to include the umbrella as part of the pic

On 21 Oct, I had the pleasure of photographing Gwen and Ian ‘s wedding at the Bethanie Chapel. Watching two people very much in love made the day very beautiful. This is my first time to shoot a wedding at Bethanie, it is a very nice location for wedding.

My fav of the day. I love taking picture of putting on the veil. Not only it looks beautiful, it also marks the change of a lady into a bride

I absolutely love shooting Christina & Alan ‘s wedding on Feb 11 at the Aberdeen Marina Club (AMC).

I love this shot. We did this shot very fast. Here was a bar just opposite to the ball room, but didn’t belong to their banquet and it ‘s still open to other guests. I found the light very good here, so I asked the staff of the bar if I could take a few photos here for two minutes. So we need to do everything quick. I used a video light for lighting instead of flash. We could use flash to do similar light, but it might take longer time to setup. The color of the video light also matched the available light very well
