Posting date: September 16th, 2009 | Category: I-do (wedding day) | - (Comments are closed)  The peak season is ON, can’t imagine that it starts so soon. Thanks for all your support, bookings from September to March are completely FULL now (no more new client can be accepted). I hope that I can keep updating this blog during this peak season, and share more and more great photos with all of you !!!!
As schedule in Sept and Oct is very tight, I ‘ll stop meeting new client during this period and priority will be given to all the existing client. Meeting will be resumed in Nov.
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, [......]

What a great party , and It looked like everyone was having a blast. Lots of surprise, performance, and emotion, can’t imagine how much time Hugo ‘s mother Belinda has spent preparing the party.
Here are the photos of this awesome party! Congratulations Hugo !!!

Posting date: August 29th, 2009 | Category: barmitzvah, personal, photo shooting technique | - (Comments are closed)  I was enjoying the “holiday” in last few weeks and very lazy updating the blog.
with only a few photo sessions in august, I had more free time to clean up the photo editing and album backlogs. Apart from it, really enjoyed the extra time I had with shulin. We went to different playgroups (little gym, ballet junior …. …) or went to swimming everyday – this was such a wonderful time (you can see some photos and video on my facebook fans page) !!!!
Before writing this blog, I was packing my equipments to prepare the photo session tomorrow – the bar mitzvah party of hugo. This is the kick-off of the peak season and my schedule was fully packed before the Chinese new year. Hopefully, I can update the blog more frequently in this season … …
In this and the next few posts, I ‘d like to share some photo [......]

Posting date: June 2nd, 2009 | Category: I-do (wedding day) | - (Comments are closed)  Bethanie – a very popular location for wedding. During peak season, we could go there 3 or 4 times a month. However, I still love this place a lot.
1) it is really a beautiful place, and has lots of photo opportunity both inside and outdoor
2) compared to to other catholic church, we can have more time and flexibility. Recently, I had a very very bad experience at the Catholic Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception – it was a rainy day and it rained so bad after the ceremony. Even thought there is no other wedding or event after my clients ‘ ceremony, we ‘re all forced to go outside …
3) It is not uncommon to have wedding after wedding for other catholic church.
4) If you have time, you can have a very nice cocktail at the studio at the roof (you can take a look at andrea and ken [......]

Posting date: March 25th, 2009 | Category: engagement (pre-wedding) | - (Comments are closed)  I am back !!!! such a long long time not updating the blog !!!!
charis and tsui-kit, the craziest and most energetic couple ever !!!! Never stopped shouting, running around, doing funny face and climbing (yes, climbing!!!) … … I strongly believe they both suffer from “hyperactive” problem !!!!! The later the day, the more energetic they were, they never felt tired.
The day after the session, Tsui Kit called me and said “Hey Simon, we had so much fun yesterday, let’s have another post-wedding photo session after our wedding in nov (2009)”, even though I knew he ‘s kidding, I talked to myself 『唔好掛！你地太勁啦，我頂你地唔住呀！』
location: Shek O, the Peak, Hong Kong University Student Hall, Central
makeup artist: polly of faces
my fav photo of the day, I love taking photo of Charis, she gets beautiful face. And look like one TV actress (OK, you name it !!!) This was taken at the HKU student [......]

Posting date: February 28th, 2009 | Category: engagement (pre-wedding), My Blogs, personal | - (Comments are closed)  This was a busy week since last Friday – with 3 pre-weddings and 3 weddings – a kick-off of the busy March coming ahead.
the weather was not very good recently – very wet and foggy most of the time, that made all the clients of the pre-wedding session very nervous before the photo shooting day. However, it turned out that we had beautiful weather in last 3 sessions – we got beautiful sunset at Sam Mun Tsai (三門仔) for ada and joe, wonderful sunlight at Shek O (and a very very clear sky at the peak) for calise and michael, and today, another beautiful sunset at the Stanley Military Cemetery for gigi and victor.
We ‘re lucky, aren’t we ???
the beautiful view at the stanley military cemetery today !!!!
Stay tuned … … will try to update the photos of all these sessions very soon. Had [......]

Posting date: February 4th, 2009 | Category: engagement (pre-wedding), personal | - (Comments are closed)  I seldom talk about my team members in this blog, but I ‘d like to start to introduce them to you one by one this month. The first member of this series: Canly.
Canly joined my team since last Sept as a contracted lighting assistant.
I started to recruit this position for the peak season last year, and when I received Canly ‘s application, I already thought she ‘s the right person!!! when I met her at the coffee shop, she was such a cheerful and happy person that I think there is no another person better than her. And my decision ‘s right !!! Without her help, I couldn’t create so many beautiful photos in last few months. Not only she has a very pleasant character, but she is very dedicated to in all weddings as well.
How dedicated is she? Take a look at following pics at the e-session of susan [......]

Posting date: January 22nd, 2009 | Category: engagement (pre-wedding) | - (Comments are closed)  a quick update: I was very sick and the cough was very bad these two days. I got 5 clients meeting yesterday, and felt very sorry that I kept coughing most of the time, and really couldn’t speak too much. Thanks for all the clients’ forgiveness (Verena, Katherine, Eva, Michelle, Bosco). One more shooting on coming Friday before the Chinese New Year holiday, hope can get well soon.
Another nice session in Oct that I ‘d like to share with you. Beautiful bride, nice couple – nothing can be better. We started the day at Park Island, this is my 2nd time to have shooting here. A very nice place, but too difficult to get there as we could only go there by their shuttle bus or ferry (remember, we had a lot of photo and lighting equipments to carry)
date: Oct 14, 2008
locations: Park Island, Stanley Market, Central (night shot)
make-up artist: [......]
