after posting several sets of Wedding day photos, I think it’s time for posting pre wedding this time.

simple, elegant and timeless — nothing better than these three words to describe the style of their wedding photos. I always believe that it is essential that we not only capture the beauty and happiness of the couple, but also tell you the character of the couple in the photos as well

the shooting started at the Disney hotel, a very good choice by made jerry. the decoration and setup there fits their style perfectly. the sofa, the window light from balcony, the curtain, and the mirror are all I need to capture good photos. the shooting then followed by Kin Tin and Stanley Market. Ida likes the Tree house at Kim Tin a lot, so we spent quite a lot of time there. The branches of the tree gave a very [......]

the second I started taking photos at Vivian and Kenneth ‘s wedding in the morning, I was very sure it was going to be a beautiful wedding. I am a lucky photographer that I am always surrounded by beautiful couples and happy families, and most of the weddings I have are simple and elegant, the style that I love most .

This week I decided to choose a portrait photo as the featured shot.  This shot was taken during the 1 hour free time before the ceremony at 5:30 pm.  The light is soft and low, very good for taking portrait. Not only we have a beautiful bride Vivian, but also lots of details in the shot as well …. …. we have the beautiful wedding gown, lovely hair style (good job by MUA Bart Ko).  Love this kind of shot very much, simple and clean, and the high key [......]

I believe nothing better than having your wedding ceremony at your own home, and that ‘s why tweety and billian chose to have their wedding  at their new home. Though it was raining the whole day, they decided to stick with the original plan and have the outdoor ceremony at the garden outside. Their optimistic and cheerful characters were rewarded finally and it was a great surprise that the rain stopped just before the ceremony.

my fav of the day. wow !!!! What a gorgeous bride !!!!!!! there is a statement that I reminded myself in every wedding … … “am I doing the best for the bride?” when others look at my photos, the best compliment for me is “the bride looks gorgeous” or “I remember this bride on your blog”. I can tell you that it is the [......]

when clients discuss with me about my photography style, we always have the following conclusions

when we have a bride as beautiful as an angel, we don’t need photoshop nor HDR effect in your photos … ..

when we have a happy couple, we don’t need to bother where and which location to take photos as the couple will shine … …

when we have beautiful dress and beautiful hair styling, why do so many photographers make the couple so small in the photos that we see nothing about the couple at all

when we have good lighting and the available light is so beautiful, why bother taking out the flash from the bag, come on! light is everywhere if you can see it.

so what is my style…..

my principle is always “simple is the best”,  and people and lighting are the most important components in my photo.

If I tell you that Fei is the most caring and gentle groom in my photos,  there shouldn’t be any argue of that. Fei is the kind of groom that always stand next to his beautiful bride, always has his hands holding her tight, and kiss her wholeheartedly. I always say that I am woman photographer and my photo is all about the bride, having said that, my job would be always easier to have a groom like Fei in all the wedding !!!

After seeing their photos below, If I say Linda is the most happiest bride, there should be no objection of it … … …

(words from Abby and Kenny)

“Happiness rests on people and happenings, not locations,” – this has been revolving in my mind since the engagement shooting. We are indeed fortunate to have the encouragement and support from friends and exceptional, big-hearted people all along, sunny and gloomy days the same way.

Simon, your sense of fun and adventure was contagious and has touched our hearts. We still remember that you stood in the middle of the pond to take pictures of us standing on the bridge while all of a sudden the water just gushed out behind you – which left us screaming right at the set…

Never would Abby have thought of being asked to sit on Kenny’s shoulder right in the middle of Stanley Main Street but with an exuberant, totally fired up photographer – why not taking his suggestion and simply enjoy the moment? (But we did [......]

能相擁到白頭,一起偕老 … … nicole.simpson

(guest post by Nicole and Simpson)

Fun Fun Fun ……We got the best team in the world at our wedding (i.e. teams of Simon, Ken, Man Chan, and Flora Kai). These people are not just showing their “professional” but also showing their “passion and heart” of helping us to accomplish our dream. Thank you everyone.

I have been chasing “simon.the.photo” since 2008, as I have to do information searching for my best cousin’s wedding. Then, I become a die heart fans for you, Simon. Even I am not getting marriage; I still keep on browsing his website.

Until my wedding, due to our budget, we tried to search all over Hong Kong to find the replacement. SORRY. There is no one. Simpson said that “I can handle it, please reserve Simon now”. Luckily, we got you, Simon. Since Simon is the master of Hong Kong, before our wedding [......]

Whenever you ‘re close to me, you`re like the sun … … emily.george

If you ‘ve followed my blog for a period of time, you should know that I like to take photos on beach.  Working on beach is always a joyful and exciting experience and the resulting photos are always my favorite. Having said that, because of the rainly and cold weather in last two months, my clients seldom choose it for prewedding photo location in last season. So when emily decided to go to beach, I was looking forward to it very much, and after discussing with her regarding the photo style she likes, I was glad that the style she likes is exactly what I like.
