engagement session - vivian and km
April 29th, 2008 at 11:37 pm (engagement)
This was a very exciting photo session — vivian and km brought me to some of the places that I never been to before, so you ‘re going to see some pre-wedding photos very different from what I ‘ve shown you before.
hand in hand, walked in the countryside under the warm sunlight … … what a beautiful day. sometime they whispered, sometime they played and laughed. Really enjoy following two lovers walking around.
Date: Dec 13, 07
yes, as there is a new place, let’s have a quiz and guess where the locations are — if you know the answer, please leave your guess in the comment section
When we arrived there, I found it quite difficult for photos at first. It ’s in the middle of the day, we had direct sunlight overhead, not many area in shade. Need to adapt a little to change the way I shoot
in the forest … … 
my fav photo of the day — the color, the tree, the bridge, the sunlight behind and the dancing vivian — all worked together in this photo 
what a view !!!!! 
with such a beautiful view in front, guess what they are talking
It ’s a joy for me to be their photographer 
and lots of fun as well 
km ’s so great that he always made vivian smile throughout the day 
Though I had another version of the this photo in which we only see vivian alone with the flying veil, I like this version better — the inclusion of km made the photo more interesting !!!! 
another indoor location 
third location — my fav place 
I really enjoyed looking at them at this moment. a simple but timeless photo 
vivian, let’s put some sand onto km 
another amazing couple — ready for anything in front of the camera 
at the tram station in Central 
another fav place for me 
I used a 500 mm reflective lens for this pic. It ’s so difficult to use — it doesn’t have auto focus, the viewfinder ’s so dark and I was so far away from them. vivian and km, thanks for helping me to work out this photo.

BINGO.
It is so billiant of (all of) you !!!!!
though it has opened for over 1 year, this is my 1st time to be there.
Not an easy place for photo, you see a lot of trees, but you can’t walk inside and the area is so open without any shade.

Hi michelle,
the tree is not in white color, this is an infrared photo which create a very different view from human eye.

Fantastic!
I really cannot imagine the upper photos are taken in Hong Kong. So great!!!
How much does it cost for a one-day pre-wedding photo shooting? Actually, I plan to take the pre-wedding pics in Jan 2009.
