Allen and Amy’s wedding

This is my first time shooting a wedding in Malaysia. While there were some minor differences in wedding customs, the excitement and jubilee were just as infectious. Allen is my cousin, and it was my first time meeting his long-time girlfriend Amy. It was a real joy to catch up with extended family after so long too.

It has been a while since I touched my aging camera (proof of how amateurish I am), but it was fun looking at the world through the viewfinder once again. Here is to say congratulations, and all the very best wishes to Allen and Amy in the years to come!

It is always hard to select just a few photos…

Eunice + Melvin’s wedding

What makes a good wedding? There were no white Mercedes convertibles parked outside the church. No Christian Louboutin stilettos in the dressing room. No Tiffany & Co. diamonds on the altar. The location was not an exotic paradise in Bali. The hands were not immaculately manicured; they showed signs of hard work. There was no front put up to impress, and the people who turned up you could relate to everyday.

This is an honest girl being wed to an honest boy. All the very best for Melvin and Eunice. Thanks for letting me be part of this joyous celebration.

Here is a small selection of photos…

Eunice + Melvin’s pre-wedding photoshoot

We took these photos over two consecutive weekends, immediately before rushing to do YK & HT’s photoshoots. My work and personal life turned into ruins that month (yes, that bad!).

But it was good fun. I was glad to be the one dressed casually when we were walking on the busy streets of Melbourne with a hundred by-passers glancing at us!

I was more liberal in the tinting of these photos as Eunice liked photos with “ambient” pastel highlight and shadow hues. Many photos are non-standard size too, just to be artsy. This is not a style I normally go for; in fact sometimes I think I have allergies with them… But tell me what you think.

Here we are, a small humble selection:
