Posting date: March 18th, 2010 | Category: I-do (wedding day) | - (Comments are closed)  this is the 2nd day of the wedding of clara and thomas. All bridal pickup game, Chinese rituals, and the wedding ceremony were done on day 1, so the 2nd was pretty relaxing. We didn’t start shooting until 11:00 pm, thanks for that, lots of good sleep the night before. We started shooting at Central, thought I have done uncounted no. of shooting here, this is my 1st time to have shooting here on a Sunday morning.
Central on sunday morning is very very different. It ‘s so quiet, not many people and traffic. Though it ‘s almost middle of the day, but we could still find beautiful directional sunlight through the gaps of the buildings.
I had mentioned in my previous blog post that both clara and thomas ‘re very nice couple. Working with them is such a joyful experience. Not only are they nice to us, but they are nice [......]

Posting date: November 20th, 2009 | Category: I-do (wedding day), video | - (Comments are closed)  it is exactly one year after I took the pre-wedding photo of charis and tsui kit. since then, we became good friend of each other and I am so looking forward to their wedding day.
Honestly, I personally feel that tsui kit has a “hyperactive” problem , he just never stop, full of energy anytime, anywhere !!!
But, on the wedding day, I learn the other side of him, and it is very touching to me.
In the middle of the day, charis took me into a room and asked me to take some photos of a present that she received the day before – this is the last present she received from tsui kit as his girl friend.
What is it? This is a box full of notes, paper, letter … … Since the 1st day they met eight years ago, tsui kit believed that he ‘s going to spend the rest [......]

I shot connie and vincent ‘s wedding few weeks ago. The weather was so hot outside and we stayed inside the hotel most of the time. Having said that, peninsula is such a nice hotel that we ‘re never short of beautiful and interesting locations.
These two photos ‘re taken after the finish of the banquet. Really love the first one, [......]

Posting date: July 2nd, 2009 | Category: I-do (wedding day), photo shooting technique, video | - (Comments are closed)  still remember vivian and roger – the couple who made me cry.
many people asked me why I cried ( after shooting hundreds of wedding in last few years), I would say I was really moved by what roger said to his father at the end of the two-days wedding.
I was so close to them and could hear what he say, and that ‘s what really made me cry.
take a look at the following slideshow, not only me, everyone cried … ….
after seeing the sentimental side of the wedding, the day was also full of fun and surprises.
roger prepared a surprise to vivian before the first dance, in roger ‘s introduction video, he said ” Hi everyone, I am roger, 26, I am a teacher …. …. and I don’t know dancing …. …” What surprised everyone was that roger prepared a hip hop dance performance for vivian. No one knew [......]

same day video edit
filming and editing by Ken of Simon.The.Photo
We had a little problem playing the video that night, there was some hang up at the last 30 sec. We believe it ‘s caused by the bad burning of the DVD media. I talked about it here because, first, I ‘d like to thank Joyce and Wilson for their forgiveness of our mistake, second, I don’t like [......]
