Posting date: January 30th, 2012 | Category: I-do (wedding day) |  Time flies, it’s already end of jan.
virginia and daniel, one of my fav wedding last season. Again, I shot alone on the day without 2nd photographer, which gave me more freedom of the day. Having said that, don’t get me wrong, even though I love working alone, every wedding is unique and some weddings definitely require 2nd photographer for handling all the formal shots requests.

My fav shot of the day. It’s a first dance photo, I always tell my clients that dance photos are the most difficult shots to take on a wedding day. Lighting is always very dim if not completely darkness, even there are spot lights at the venue, they are usually unpredictable in terms of ligh intensity, color, or how the hotel staff operates them. What makes it even more difficult is that you [......]

Posting date: December 24th, 2009 | Category: I-do (wedding day) |  merry Christmas and happy new year.
Just a few days left for 2009 and I have 3 more weddings to go before finishing the awesome and wonderful 2009.
The happy thing is - I don’t have wedding on the new year eve and Christmas eve this year, so finally I can have “count down” with my love ones – Xandra and Shulin. What am I going to do tonight? Honestly, Xandra and I don’t like crowded places at all (Is it a joke for a wedding photographer??), so a quiet night (no work, no email) with my family is the best for me.
Another beautiful wedding to share before the Christmas – Yuki and Roni.
First time to have wedding at the American Club – beautiful location and so happy to work with my friend Evelyn from Marriage Maestros. She is fabulous, with her help, you don’t’ need to worry any details and surly [......]

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 31st, 2009 | Category: I-do (wedding day), photo shooting technique |  there is a story behind the following two photos that I ‘d like to share – a story about my photography approach.
It was the wedding of winnie and marcus, around 6:00pm, everyone was taking a rest to prepare for the cocktail. Not many guest at the cocktail area, so I took the time to take some shots of the decoration. After taking a few shots of the (blank) backdrop, I ‘d like to add some elements to it to make it more “alive”. So I set up the camera on tripod and WAIT for something to happen in front of the backdrop. In fact, I was anticipating children running around (it is not uncommon, is it?). After 1-2 min, a waiter walked across and I got the 1st shot below. I love it, better than a blank backdrop and it looked more interesting. After a few min., nothing interesting happened, [......]

Posting date: July 2nd, 2009 | Category: I-do (wedding day), photo shooting technique, video |  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 [......]

Even though I was the only ONE (and only one) photographer of the wedding, I didn’t need to do any formal / group /posing shot at all, and I could walk around and have the freedom to take all the shots I like. Feel so good of it !!!!
