Our love story { Chee Meng & Poh Choo}

I couldn’t think of any more romantic day throughout the year than to celebrate your wedding anniversary with your best half on the Christmas day every year. That’s exactly what Chee Meng & Poh Choo are creating and to start their new chapter of their married life on 25 December 2011 with Christmas mood – Joy. Now the groom has no excuse to forget his wedding anniversary and the arrangement of celebration with his wife.  The bride lives very far and it was the longest trip I’ve ever followed from the bride house to groom house, the journey took 1 hour but didn’t felt like one cause I’m just as excited as the bride to capture this very important moment of their new chapter of life. It was a warm hearted, full of christmas holiday spirit throughout the wedding day & night ceremony : ) Merry Christmas, Ho ho ho !

P.S. Love the little girl loves imitating the adults yelling her lungs out “Yum Sing” with her glass of water , she is so adorable : )

 

Shobana love story {Pre wedding}

Putrajaya – Looking at my watch, my client won’t be arriving shortly so I thought give my car tyre some air at the petrol station and marks the beginning of chaos throughout that day, almost. One of my car back tyre went flat during the process of adding air , weird isn’t it? The four knots tighten on that flat tyre are so tight from the last car mechanic at car service. I’ve tried to loosen the knots using the came-with-the-car purchase-useless cross tool with my full strength but still failed. Scrapped off a small chunk of skin on one of my finger during the process. Luckily its the finger on the left hand, not my shooting right hand. My clothes are soaked up with sweats when my client arrived. Left my car at the petrol station and hopped in my client’s car for the shoot of the day. My shoe bottom came off and I had to borrow my client’s extra pair of sport shoe in his car. Fortunately the shoe sizes matches my feet. The shooting went on smoothly which is something I’m most grateful for that day. It only starts raining towards the end of the shooting. The rain turned heavier by the time I got back to the petrol station feeling all alone waiting the car mechanic called earlier to arrive. Waited almost an hour and get being yelled at when I make a reminder call to the the car mechanic if he’s arriving any time soon. I didn’t want to fight back with him cause I need his man to fixed my car’s tyre. An hour later they showed up, he left one of his man with me and they have better tools as it takes them less than 10 minutes finishing changing the tyre. I really need to get one of their tools at ACE hardware shop one of these days. Last and final, I couldn’t have the burger whicht was advertised in the TV commercial that makes you shines like a celebrity at the KFC outlet because the middle aged woman in front of me not only took her entire 15 -20 minutes ordering her food but also snatched the last Double Zinger burger from me. Talk about tough love on a day, this is certainly one of them. However, I’m glad I kept my head cool not to be bothered by this chain reactions of unfortunate mini-series one leading to another and finished what I came out for that day which is capturing the love story of my clients. Besides, I’m just grateful that The All Mighty above was mercy enough and gave me the daylight needed for the shoot before it turned into a wet cacophony. Thank you : )

Stanley Tan + Joyce Soh love story {AWD}

Fast and Furious, Lady Gaga, Angry Bird, Performer in Chinese Opera mask disguise, Queens of karaoke, all the elements during Stanley & Joyce wedding day! What a wedding. It’s my good friend’s brother’s wedding and I’m glad being offered to shoot his brother’s wedding at Jenjarom. Before this, I only knew the famous chinese temple in Jenjarom which is always crowded every year during Chinese New Year without fail. Now I learned a lot of Chinese lives there and their food are really cheap and delicious, only RM3 for a Pan Mee, you can’t get that in KL. In a Chinese wedding, the “game” before the groom gets to fetch his lady away always fascinates me. It shows you how far the “brothers” would go for their friend-groom successfully meeting his bride in the final stage. I still couldn’t forget the image of one of groom’s “brother” has to eat the fruit hanging around …you know where..with eyes covered, I can’t imagine myself doing it. No, I can’t.

At the end of the wedding, everyone has a lot of fun during the dinner session. Especially the part where Lady Gaga entertaining the crowds. She or he is really good in entertaining the crowds. I remember seeing some of the male guest kissed / dance / hugged her despite She’s actually “He”.  It was a fun wedding.

 

Li Pei + Teck Chee love story {AWD}

 

Talk about early morning, this has to be one of the earliest morning I woke up to the walking dead zombie look of myself in the mirror and I’m glad it’s much a different side of story when I arrived at my client – bride’s house. I must say Li Pei looked really stunning in her wedding gown/dresses. The timing was rather rushed during the actual wedding day of Li pei & Tech Chee due to a long 2 hour traffic jam when bride was picked up to groom’s house. Despite this little surprises in the morning, we’re all glad that everything went accordingly and smoothly.

Assistant shooter to Louis Pang

Louis Pang, a wedding photographer based in Sabah that has made many photographer inspired with his achievement not only in Malaysia, but internationally. Despite of his long list of awards achievements in the wedding photography industry, it could be sometime intimidating with the speculating thoughts of “Is he friendly in person?”, “Is he an easy person and approachable?”, “Will I get scold by him today assisting him?”. Yes,  I am fortunate to assist him on several wedding shoots of his client and during those occasions I’m glad I came to know him as a very approachable and down to earth character person. I am glad when I was asked to be his second shooter for his client’s wedding this weekend which was held at Mentakab, Pahang. It’s a very rewarding experience for me spending time with him over the weekends because able to learned so much from him not only on this business but also the right attitude towards the business. The great personality of humbleness he portrayed himself as a well known professional photographer in this industry truly inspired me in a lot of ways including achieve better results in my work in near future. What a great way celebrating my September birthday over the weekend : )
