this was a rainy and cold day. It was so cold that no one liked to stay outdoor for a few seconds.

this is my 2nd time to have a wedding at the beautiful Bethanie Chapel. I love this location a lot, not only because of the beautiful architecture, and I love their booking system as well. When you book this venue, you have a 4 hour session, so you don’t need to rush before and after the ceremony.

date: feb 2, 2008
ceremony: Bethanie Chapel
reception: Langham Place Hotel

Even though we couldn’t go out because of the bad weather, there ‘re so many beautiful locations inside the chapel. I was trying a new concept, inspired by another wpja award winning photographer Dino Lara

We only had a few outdoor photos — this was one of them. taken at the swimming pool of the hotel. In fact, it was still raining, and they had to hide under the tent.

  7. Hi Kingfai & Ivan,
    thanks. your words are more than I deserve. I also got a lot of inspirations from other great photographer.
    Hi CC
    this is a little bit technical, to put it simple .. when you set the white balance setting of the camera to tungsten mode, it will add some blue color to the photo

  15. Hi Ivi,
    you are lucky to have dino as your wedding photographer, he is definately one of the best wedding photographer in Asia, and I got a lot of inspiration from his creative use of lightings.

    I got to know him two years ago, when I sold some DVDs to him.
