Here are the long overdue photos from Desmond & Ching Sze’s Pre-wedding. The reason that I held back posting these photos here is because I wanted to wait till their wedding last weekend. It’s 2am here and I think I’ll probably continue to write a better blog post some time tomorrow when I’m wide awake. Enjoy the photos for now and do remember to comment!

Part II coming soon!

Hey people!

I had a fantastic weekend shooting Desmond & Ching Sze Pre-wedding in Singapore! It was a challenging day because we were sparring with the weather most of the time. You see, it started out a week prior to the pre-wedding shoot. I was observing the weather forecast and the pattern goes something like this; morning – bright and sunny, afternoon – rain, evening – beautiful evening skies. Perfect! This has been ongoing from Monday to Friday morning when I was all psyched up for the shoot on Saturday. Great, I couldn’t wait! But things took an about turn when I saw grey clouds gathering on Friday evening. Oh no! It started raining!

Sure enough, Saturday was a challenging day, grey and dull skies for most of the morning, afternoon had a hint of sunlight. We did some beautiful casual shots for the morning. I initially thought that we would have clear blue skies for Saturday like the rest of the week prior. I was so confident that I planned out a string out outdoor locations without a backup plan! Hah! BIG mistake! As we were heading out for the evening shoot, I saw the clouds gathering above us as we drove to our first venue. We had to practically race against time (and the rain clouds) for most of the shoot.

By the time we got to the first venue, it was getting really dark. I took a few shots with the couple while Andrew and Mark (who graciously assisted me for that day) were setting up the lights for me. I felt a few raindrops on my face now, and I remembered shouting to Desmond and Ching Sze, “One last shot, guys! One last shot!”, just in case you do not know, that’s my favourite sentence *wink*. The rain was getting heavier now but I insisted that we took “one last shot”. *snap* *snap* *more raindrops* OK, by now, I knew we had to leave, although we only had 30 minutes at that beautiful spot. I told the guys to pack up and head to the car. We started loading the gear into the car when I heard Desmond shouting, “It’s coming! It’s coming!”. I looked with the corner of my eye and I saw a thick grey layer of rain like a curtain moving towards us. “Quick!” We dumped everything into the car boot and jumped into the car and slammed the door shut. BOOM! The rain poured like there was no tomorrow.

This was one of the “last shots” we took before the rain won.

Definitely one of my favourite shots of the day!

Finally, I could tick off one item on my wishlist. To photograph a couple or bride/groom alone, next to a plane. Woohoo!

I had to think of other spots to shoot due to the heavy downpour. I’ll probably post some of those photos later. As the rain hampered most of my plans, I was determined to wait until I could shoot at another wonderful spot. Here is a preview of what is to come.

All in all, it was a wonderful day out with friends. The weather did make things a little difficult for me at the beginning but it all soon fade away the moment I look at the photos. Desmond & Ching Sze, thanks for being so patient with me and for putting up with all the impossible requests at times. Would love to show you more photos but that would ruin the surprise for the Ipoh Wedding in December! The rain didn’t stop us and I think, end of the day, the chili and pepper crabs did make a whole lot of difference!

Hey people! Here is the part two installment of Edmund & Jen’s Wedding! I’m glad my Canon 5D Mark II (still looking for a name for my lil’ baby)  held up to the low light challenge at Banker’s Club.

Alright people! Here is the second installment from Gerry & Helena’s Pre-wedding photos in Melbourne. Enjoy!

We saw two couples getting intimate at the corner and I got Gerry and Helena to do the same.

Gerry and Helena, wishing you all the best in your upcoming wedding. Hope you love the photos!!!

Gerry & Helena met each other many years ago through a circle of friends. Now, they are working together in a lil’ cafe down in the bustling city of Melbourne. They’ve decided to tie the knot end of the year but unfortunately, I would not be able to make it for their wedding. (My apologies Helena and Gerry, but I do hope I’ve made it up through the photos here!) The day before the pre-wedding shoot, Helena was giving me the low down of the places we would be shooting and I’ve gotta say how much I love them! They sure know what kinda places that I like to shoot in. Oh, how I love this place! Gerry & Helena brought me to this wonderful place tucked somewhere in heart of Melbourne City. It just beautiful! I’m very happy to share this set of photos with you because it’s very close to my heart. So enjoy!

More to follow very soon from my Melbourne Pre-Wedding Journey. Here’s a sneak peek from the next set of photos coming your way.

I have a feeling that I would be really packed for the rest of the week, so I thought I would schedule this update. Jun Kit & Mei Sze decided to have a casual shoot the day after the pre-wedding and we headed down to Brighton among other places to do some casual portraiture that day. The weather, again, was very kind to us. It was reported to rain with overcast clouds but thank God, at every location that we went, the sky was bright and sunny.

I’ll let the rest of the photos do the talking for themselves. Enjoy!

Jun Kit & Mei Sze are such a wonderful couple. I’m glad to know them as first my clients, and then more importantly, as friends. Jun Kit and Mei Sze it’s great to have known the both of you and we would cherish the moments we’ve spent together. I can imagine if we spent a day together, we would be talking non-stop about things that we love. Thanks again for opening your homes to us. You guys were fantabulous. We’re sorry that we can’t be your photographers on your wedding day but I am sure you guys would rock the world!

Over the course of those few days, we got to know the both of them better. So much so, that I can’t help but find it difficult at times to visualise how I could take romantic, sexy, classy photos of the both of them. Each time I have to ask myself if that’s really them. Well, I’ve decided to post this photo last because after knowing them for a few days now, I think that this last photo really describes them the best.

Have a great wedding, guys!
