It was a great pleasure shooting the gorgeous wedding of Fiona & Johnny at InterContinental last month. Fiona was absolutely stunning and photogenic. Can’t wait to share with you some of the images here.

Makeup artist of the day was Bart Ko, and videography was done by Tart Yau.

Enjoy!

Happy bride and her bridesmaids:

Many news reporters that night:

Congratulations!

Photography Seminar @ the Hong Kong Law Society

March 28, 2012

It’s a great pleasure sharing photography tips amongst members of the Hong Kong Law Society today! Didn’t expect that the feedback was that great – the seminar was already fully booked only after a few days of announcement. Also got some great questions and sharing from members. So glad that photography is such a popular hobby in the legal profession. What a pity that we didn’t have enough time for detailed discussions and more actual shooting practice by members. We hope to be able to arrange a “Part II’ session soon. Stay tuned!

Many thanks to Sansu for her help acting as shooting model:

the wedding of Macy & Freddy

March 23, 2012

Shooting for Macy was like shooting a magazine cover. She was so photogenic! And so did the handsome groom Freddy. It was a beautiful and gorgeous wedding! And Freddy I really admire your innovative Fedex idea (no spoilers here).

The happy day was kicked off at Peninsula, whilst the touching ceremony and banquet was held at the W Hotel. The video team Brian Tam did a wonderful job, and all the beauty essence of Macy was brought out by makeup artist Fion Lai @ Eternal Blessing.

Enjoy some of my fav images below. Congrats Macy & Freddy!

Wedding Magazine Award 2012

March 22, 2012

Wedding Magazine Award Ceremony 2012 was held last week at The Grand Stage. It’s my great honour to receive Best Style Wedding Photography Award 2012. Indeed, I am the winner of this award for three consecutive years. So, what is “best style” ? I think the answer is very objective. Different people have different views on a shooting style.

Throughout all these years I have been asking myself – what is my style? Finding a unique style is a long journey to a photographer. Luckily, up to this point of time, at the very least, I can describe my own wedding shooting style.

In gist, I am trying to show the natural and elegant beauty of my subjects.

There are styles that I like and dislike.

For what I like:

I LIKE focusing you as my subjects.

I LIKE candid shots and natural posing.

I LIKE genuine smile.

I LIKE real connection between subjects.

I LIKE natural and pleasing lighting and skin tone.

I LIKE elegant mood.

I LIKE invisible photoshop.

I LIKE timeless images.

I LIKE new shooting challenges.

I LIKE shooting for you, not for any awards.

On the other hand,

I DISLIKE fake facial expression.

I DISLIKE stiff posture.

I DISLIKE harsh lighting and unnecessary lighting effect.

I DISLIKE excessive photoshop.

I DISLIKE asking my subjects to pretend to be someone else.

I DISLIKE images that do not give a feel or meaning.

I DISLIKE shooting the same image again and again.

…

That’s all for the moment. You should be able to look into a photographer’s mind by seeing his work anyway, right?

A medley of some fav weddings in Nov & Dec 2011

March 9, 2012

When tidying up our wedding images taken in the busy November and December last year, I note that there are some of my favourite weddings that I wanted to share with you here but didn’t have the chance to do so. New work keeps coming in, and we expect that we will get busier than ever. If I don’t write on those previous weddings now, it would become even more difficult to do so later. Given the number of those fav weddings, this time perhaps I will do it in a “medley” way. Enjoy!
