Posting date: June 26th, 2011 | Category: engagement (pre-wedding) |  the weather was not very stable recently, a lot of clients asked me the same question: “if the weather is not good, is there any indoor location that is good for photo shooting?” Honestly, other than shooting inside studio or hotel, I really have no idea of any public indoor location that is good for shooting under rain. Let me know if you know any of this place.
Even though I had shoot under very bad weather conditions before, but I really prefer to shoot under sunshine as there is too much pressure on the couple and it is difficult to protect the equipments when shooting under rain.
Cindy and Bennalt asked me the same question a few days before their prewedding session because the weather forecast was really bad. It turned out that it rained the whole day, and luckily, they made the decision to book a room inside the 1881 heritage [......]

Posting date: May 18th, 2011 | Category: engagement (pre-wedding) |  if you follow my blog for a long time, you should know that I am pretty much a woman photographer. i would say more than 80% of my photos focus on the bride only, even my wedding day photo, the approach is documenting everything happening around the bride.
you may not agree, but I always think that wedding is all about the bride, nothing else.
having said that, it’s surprising that, I have several clients recently that the groom really like playing an “active role” in the photos. Sometimes I really feel that the guy has more concern of his outlook and appearance than the bride does. hahahaha…….. And Jonathan is definitely one of them. This is a good thing for sure ….. ….. at least I can feel that he is very serious about the quality of the wedding photos, doesn’t like other guys that just help the brides pay the [......]

Posting date: March 5th, 2011 | Category: I-do (wedding day), weddings |  a lot of clients and photographers asked me, “why are all your clients look so pretty and beautiful?”
I always tell them, my clients are neither models nor celebrities, and most of them are just average persons. However, every girl in her wedding gown should be the happiest and the most beautiful girl in the world on her wedding day. So it is always the responsibility of the photographer to capture the best picture for the bride. There are so many ways to make a person look good in a photo (at the same time, there are lots of other way to make a person look bad), and every WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER should spend time learning all these technique (And I am still learning !!!!).
After having said all these, what if we have some really good looking clients? this is exactly the case for Kristy and Wilson!!! They are such a good [......]

Posting date: December 16th, 2010 | Category: engagement (pre-wedding) |  as both faye and matthew ‘re working aboard, I didn’t meet them until they ‘re back to hong kong two weeks before the pre-wedding photo session. I still remembered they asked matthew ’s father and sister to visit my studio and help them to decide if I am the right photographer for them . Glad that their families love my photos as well, or I don’t have the chance to take the photos of this beautiful couple.
When I first meet Faye and Matthew, I said to myself “OMG, this is such a beautiful lady, lucky me again…..” But faye kept saying to me that she ’s very very nervous as she feel that she ’s not a photogenic person and all her photos don’t look good before. in fact, she ’s so nervous that she couldn’t sleep the night before the photo session.
So, is faye photogenic or not, let the photo tell [......]

Posting date: January 21st, 2010 | Category: I-do (wedding day) |  I believe I am a lucky wedding photographer – always have very nice client, friendly wedding parties and families, beautiful and gorgeous brides at beautiful locations
As you know, in Hong Kong, we have two big fireworks show over the Victoria harbour every year (one is on the 2nd day of Chinese new year, the other is on the 1st of Oct National Day).
In 2009, we had three fireworks show because of the 2009 Asian games opening on Dec 6th.
nothing ‘s luckier than the year of 2009, I had outdoor weddings in two of the fireworks shows and was able to watch the show very close at a very comfortable location. Jennifer and Fan ‘s wedding ‘s one of the two. The couple came from Shanghai to have their wedding in Hong Kong, with only their best friends and close families ‘re invited.

Posting date: May 13th, 2009 | Category: engagement (pre-wedding) |  Though fiona loves the location of Student Hall of HKU so much, neither ben nor she studied in HKU before. you can imagine it is very difficult for them to go inside to take wedding photo
However, with her strong determination and lots of preparation works, we finally get a permission to go inside.
location: HKU and the U-hall, Stanley Market, Central
makeup artist: Man Chan of Miracle (her recent interview by esdlife)
the winding stair that she loves a lot
BTW, Canly helped me to take some behind the scene videos on the day, I have put them onto my facebook fans page, Don’t forget to become my fans if you haven’t joined yet.
