it is a destiny.

two people from two different worlds – a HK born half chinese half Korean/Japanese girl and a HK guy, like to see the future of themselves, so they join a Chinese face-reading class a few years ago, at where they met each other and fell in love.

date: 4 jan, 2008
ceremony and reception: Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong

my fav photo of the day. while I was taking a shot of the ballroom, it was so lucky that Nina was just walking back to the bridal room and made it more than just a ballroom shot. I tried a new concept here which was inspired by another great wedding photographer Matt Adcock
