What drew me into wedding photography? It’s pure accident actually, photography has been my hobby for many years. As a kid, I played with my father’s Pentax SLR camera, then I asked for a compact film to play around when I was in primary school. Photography took a halt when I worked as a lecturer at a private college after I graduated. I slowly pick up photography again in the year 2006, that was with a Nikon L1, a compact camera.

Photographing landscape, scenery is my favorite then, until a friend asked me if I would like to cover his wedding. I told him that I don’t have a proper camera for the job. He borrowed me a Fuji S5500 (if I am not mistaken) – a prosumer camera. Not knowing how to use Fuji camera, I brought along my Nikon L1 with me. That’s when I fall in love with wedding photography.

Though not directly involved in the event itself, I feel oblige to capture the best and important moments of the event itself. Somehow it just come naturally in me – and I can feel emotions that runs throughout the wedding. It’s a different kind of feeling, being able to freeze the moments of the couple, and when they view the photos later, it brings back the vivid memories to them.

Sze Chung and Liew Chin (Christina)’s wedding saw me partnering with my friend Shen as usual. Shen starts off to the bride’s house while I went over to Sze Chung’s house. At his house, all the “brothers” are there already but was eagerly waiting for their “job assignment”. Seeing this, Sze Chung brought out his pre-wedding photo album for them to view. That’s when the laughter starts, according to them, the groom’s smile is something like cut and paste throughout the album. You’ll see what I mean later when you view the photos. Both the bride and groom have such a perfect smile, it just makes you smiles back without knowing it. I had fun shooting their wedding. Here are some photos to share with my readers.
