Many would call their photo session before wedding an engagement photo session. However, in many Asian countries, they call it Pre-Wedding photo session. The bride to be would dress in a bridal gown and the groom to be would wear suits. Whereas in engagement photos, both would dress casual or smart casual. Either way, the most important is to show love while enjoying the photo session.

Nicole and Leon will get married in China. They want to have photos taken in Perth to bring it back to their home to show everyone the characteristics of the city. We travelled from Fremantle, to UWA/Blue Shed and to Swan Valley. To capture the popular Perth sceneries that they would keep in memories. All the best to your wedding and marriage life Nicole and Leon.

Kirsty and Chris and their lovely companies had some fun time out at the wood. Many laughters and love and  sunshine for me to capture.

It’s another Shek O engagement session. This time we came up with a little fun with a chalkboard that Karen and Brian have prepared. With the fine sunshine, we were able to get the backlit photos again. Save the date! 27th Feb 2011.

The weather was unstable, it has been raining for few days before the photo session. We worried because the photo session have already postponed once. The day turned out very lovely with scattered clouds to cool off the burning sun. The woods also covered up the path, so it was an enjoyable walk. It took us 20 minutes to get to the first location to start the photo shoot. The place was so green, the air was fresh. Plenty of good lights for the photo session. Hope Angela and Eric enjoyed the session and I can’t wait for their wedding day.

To be honest, I’m not a good writer nor a good speakers. But I’ll love to share my thoughts and experience with anyone who cares about wedding photographs. Anyone including couples who are getting married or photographers who are serious about wedding photography.

Here’s a chance for me to do that at Vianei Wedding. My trusted wedding gown vendor who always show support with my work. I’m honored to present a talk at their shop. Here’s the detail with a brief agenda of the talk.

After the talk, there will be Q&A and open discussion. If you feel your wedding photos are one of the most important element of your wedding. Then join a session for free to prepare and find out how to find the right wedding photographer.

It was a really humid day in Hong Kong. We know spring is here when it is 99% humidity and I don’t think 100% humidity makes any difference. It was hot, sticky and sweaty. To be honest I hate it so much because I’m a sweaty person and especially I need to go out for photo shoot. But hey I love what I do, and I don’t care what kind of weather it is. As long I have a camera on my hand, I will work hard to find good photos.

With this kind of weather, the photo session made Jess and Jake a bit exhausted. We had to walk around the Soho area in Central for some photo spots. The area is up and down hills, so as soon as we started walking up hills, we were sweating already. Nevertheless, we went to a few locations in Soho. Played with the swings, walk through some old streets and then took a rest at a famous food stall.

This e-session was planned by Jess as a surprise for Jake. Jake came from Perth to Hong Kong for holiday and Jess wanted to get Jake a birthday present. At the end Jess couldn’t keep the secret as Jake found out about me. It was a really a lovely idea and I hope they enjoyed the moment with the e-session.

Perth still have plenty of sunshine and even burning hot if you stays too long without shades. But I love it so much, because the weather is perfect to go out for some photo shoot. This trip back to Perth gave me a chance to work with my friend Chris to bring this lovely couple out for a photo shoot. The couple got married on the day I arrived and Chris was on the job for their wedding photos. So this session was a post-wedding photos that Chris invited them and here we have the results!

Thanks so much for Mariko and Brad. Bless you all.
