This was my first time to have two consecutive weddings at four seasons hotel Hong Kong. Jacqueline & Vincent ‘s wedding was on mar 18, just one day after Apple and Po Ming. I wish I had a room there the night before, so that I could have more time to sleep and less time to travel.wedding of jacqueline & vincent 7

Jacqueline & Vincent ‘s wedding surpassed everything I had expected. The weather was perfect, the bride and groom were relaxed, and every guest was excited with them.

wedding shoes. Jacqueline ‘s shoes ‘re perfect for this kind of reflection shot. To prepare this picture, we need to have a clean glass surface (the tea bench was perfect for this case). Then, we need to move the bench next to the windows. Metered the exposure correctly for the shoes and tried to over exposed & washed out the background

When I was in Yervant ‘s Santorini workshop last month, everyone was very surprised that a typical chinese wedding can last more than 12 hours and we had to get up very very early. It can be very tired after the lunch time. Lovely bridesmaid, sorry for taking this shot of you, but I believe Jacqueline ‘s going to love it.
a candid moment
