When I have meetings with my clients, a lot of the brides tell me their fiance doesn’t smile, doesn’t like wedding photo … ….
Peter is an exception. He enjoyed the wedding so much, and he could sing a song, read a Chinese love poem to Anissa anytime, anyplace. His expectation of wedding photos was very high as well, they ‘re the first couple to prepare a 16-page powerpoint presentation for me, with a list of photos that they like. I can still remember, on the wedding day, I brought the presentation with me and reminded me the shots.

thanks anissa and peter for inviting me as your wedding photographer.

date: 29 dec, 2007
ceremony: Yan Fook Church
reception: Eaton Hotel

my fav photo of the day – at anissa parent ‘s apartment
– an ordinary location with extraordinary sunlight

We ‘re leaving for Anissa ‘s family, when the door of the elevator opened, I found there was very beautiful light from outside and captured this moment

Did I mention that Peter loves singing a lot — he was singing to Anissa. I remembered it was a song from Jacky Cheung

another fav of the day — the long staircase is very unique for ballroom of Eaton Hotel, I took the risk to take the photo at their back and tried to include as many guests as possible. You can click on the photo to see my thinking process

Peter was making Anissa cry again

This table was their special friends from the "hong kong outstanding students’ association". They prepared an album for anissa and peter, with photos from them

    Anissa and Peter wedding has set a high standard for all of us (the OSA friends), and Simon, I’m counting on you to take a lot of nice pix on my wedding date this Dec!!
     Btw, let’s meet-up for details when your holidays over. We haven’t met since Anissa’s wedding and you haven’t met my bf yet. It would be great to meet-up and discuss our wedding in detail.
    Congratulations for having such a pretty little princess!

    Dear Simon,
    We were just back from Paris when we saw the photos you posted! What a pleasant surprise! Thanks for the great pictures that capture our sweetest memory. We really look forward to receiving the coffee book which will include the pics we like most!
    And I noticed that my friends Kat and Ling are definitely keen fans of you and your blog, haha! I’ll see you again at Ling’s wedding in HK this Dec.

    Congrats and enjoy your new family life, Simon the papa!

    Hi Simon
    YOu got some great images
    but somehow your sample at asuka books just doesnt do you credit.
    Perhaps you need to think as a photographer when you are doing your layout. 
    do it as you would your photos
    keep it up
