Can't bear to look

No, I don't mean this batch of photos are ugly. In fact, I love this photo shoot a lot because it's another wonderful couple who are easy to work with and who devote their attention wholeheartedly into it. It was a post-wedding shoot and one that was three years after the wedding! I really admire their desire to have a piece of nice memory that they didn't get to possess years ago, and I am honoured that I am the one who helped them fulfil this dream.

Elorn is very funny because after the photo shoot, when it was time to collect the photos, she was so nervous that she couldn't bear to look at herself in the pictures. Sounds paradoxical, but I guess it's how I, as a student felt when I collected my "A" level results. I worked hard for two years (did I really?) and when it was time for the moment of truth, I couldn't bear to see what letters were printed on that result slip.

I don't know yet how they feel now, but I thought they passed with flying colours.

Here's Mini-Me

We do have many similarities.
Some say he's as cute as me. He's a glutton. He always cries to get sympathy.
And we're always fighting each other to get mummy's attention.

A Wedding in Singapore

A week after the wedding in HK, Ambrose and Wendy flew back to Singapore for their church wedding. Well, I actually shot Ambrose's brother, Ernie's wedding a couple of years earlier (the one which I had to fly to Sabah for). Theirs was also a church wedding held similarly at St Teresa's and then followed by a luncheon.

Frankly speaking, I didn't even once talk to Ambrose during the brother's wedding because he came across as one of those well-mannered and soft-spoken (UK-educated) gentlemen whom I am always consciously avoiding lest my ill-chosen words embarrass myself. At that wedding, Wendy wasn't around so I thought Ambrose was a young and eligible bachelor.

So it came as a surprise when I received a call from him, asking about wedding photography.
In the end, I talked to him at one lunch meeting more than I have ever talked to Ernie for the entire time I have known him. We had fun doing the pre-wedding, the HK wedding, and now the Singapore wedding. It helped that Wendy was a livewire and a bunch of fun.














Ernie and Adeline, stealing a moment to do a maternity shoot of sorts.


Little Jonah (son of Ernie and Adeline) during the wedding speech......no, just kidding. He's simply exhausted after the adrenalin rush since morning.





For the two consecutive weddings held at Dempsey Hill, both ended in a torrential downpour. This time there was flashes of lightning and thunder too. Once, when my flash went off, the two kids immediately covered their ears, thinking the thunder was following up.


That was me in the picture fooling around. It was Ambrose's idea. Picture by Ernie.

A Wedding in HK

It was a fruitful trip to Hong Kong last month.
I bought a bicycle frame, watched Liverpool thrashed Man U 4-1 at Old Trafford, and also shot a wedding.
No, just kidding, Ambrose and Wendy. I had lots of fun shooting your wedding, and the bicycle frame was just the icing on the cake.

This is not the first time I shot a wedding involving HK girls, but it was my first time shooting a wedding in HK. These girls are crazy when it comes to the games. I was really honoured to be their pre-wedding photographer and wedding photographer (for both HK and Singapore). They are easy to work with, and they really enjoyed their wedding like one, or rather two big parties.
Basically, it was "Hahahahaha"------------------ and the wedding ended.
For now.
There is a Singapore leg to come. Stay tuned.
