Noriko & Oliver had a beautiful wedding at the pool side "Plateau" of Grand Hyatt  on July 1st –  one of my favorite wedding locations. All the guests ‘re their closest friends and flied all the way from Europe & Japan to cerebrate their wedding

We had a 1 hr. location shooting at the Executive Floor & Plateau of Grand Hyatt. I always love the idea of location shooting on wedding day, as the newly wed could escape from the crowd and enjoy a quiet moment between them.
A romantic moment

No setup, no pose … … They ‘re really enjoying the moment. All I need to do is pressing the shutter to capture this beautiful moment
So beautiful !!

    Simon,
    You always surprise me with some great new pics, whenever I check your blog. Well this time it is not an exceptio, and do you still rememeber that i was just about to decide "Plateau" for the wedding dinner venue but I kept worrying that the pics. would turn out not to be so good because of the "Glass" wall surrounding might caused reflection when using flash at night and I finally gave up the venue and was desparately looking for an alternative as replacement. However, your pics. took on Noriko and Oliver`s wedding were so great and very romantic as well. I have now just realize that it is the "people" who creates the "mood" and not just the venue that matter the most.
     I have to say that you have changed,,,I mean change for the better and have noticed you have made a lot of improvement and progress…Keep up your good works and more importantly your passion in taking wedding photos….Well done! Ganbarimasu!
