I recently shot Eric and Chew Yong's wedding and usually most of the time when I shoot weddings, it would be under the Stories.My banner hence most of the images are posted there. This time, I thought I would also add them here on my blog. Here are some of my shots from the wedding.























A big thanks to Ian Chew for helping me out on that day as well.

It has been a while since I have blogged about weddings I've shot and I definitely have a lot of photos all stored up in my hard disk at home waiting to be posted online. I think I shall go with the thinking that it is always "better late than never". Before I continue ranting about things which should have been, let me start the post up.

To be frank, it wasn't really a wedding as both Chi Wern and Chin Ling got married in Singapore the week before but they had a vow renewal session here in Malaysia so that friends and family in Malaysia will not be missed out.









His best man, flew all the way back from London to be a part of this happy occasion!







The groom's mum looking over the happy couple.



As I mentioned in the beginning, it was a renewal of vows, so the ceremony was a little different. I will let you see if you can spot the difference.







Once the entire ceremony was over, it was time for the bride and groom to head out.



Where we then proceeded to take a couple of shots before the tea ceremony.







Dinner was held on the same day as the church ceremony but there was time in between to take a break.







When you have friends helping you out as your emcees, you definitely have to expect them to play some games with you on stage.



Games like asking the groom to feel several hands and ask him to identify the bride's hand.



As well as getting the bride to feel for her husband's hair as well among other guys.





This is one of the very rare occasion where I managed to capture the cork in the frame as well. Talk about being lucky :)



The best man giving his toast, the funny thing is that I gave the 3rd toast as well! Yes, me, the photographer who is also an old childhood friend of the groom. Unfortunately there wasn't anyone there to capture me giving the toast :P





The night ended with a blast and I definitely had loads of fun shooting their wedding. It was just totally awesome! The feeling was different because there were so many familiar faces and when you know the guests, it becomes a little more personal .

Yes, I finally delivered to them their photos and their slideshows. I got loads more to post process and I got loads more to process (even during the Chinese New Year holidays). I will be heading back to Malacca from Sunday till Wednesday. Since I know that I might be quite bored there, I have decided to bring back some photos to post process as well as capture some landscape shots by the beach. Wished that I had a tripod though :P

Here are some of my favourite shots from Aik Tong and Say Wan's wedding which I shot together with Ian in December last year.















You can view more photos over here at this post at the Wedding Story's blog.

My apologies for the large photo size which doesn't fit this blog template. Perhaps I should change the template but it would definitely require a lot more work which I don't have that much time at the moment.

Have a great Chinese New Year everyone! For those of you driving back to your respective hometowns, do have a safe drive back.

About a month back, I shot Lian Hoy & Ivy's wedding here in KL. Although the both of them are based off in New Zealand, they decided to have their special day here in Malaysia which was awesome! I knew Lian Hoy way back from my old high school days and only met Ivy when I was touring about Sydney and Melbourne back in 2003. I remember the time when Lian Hoy was sliding down Mt. Buller mowing everyone down on his snowboard but now, he is an ace when it comes to riding on a snowboard.

I wish to both Lian Hoy & Ivy a successful marriage and may God continue to bless the two of you in your new journey of your life.

Here are some of the photos I took on the actual day of the wedding.



The wedding gown was really really long!









I wanted to capture the intricacies of the beautiful wedding gown and decided to process them in black & white.





The funny thing about the games was that all of "heng tais" or brothers-in-arms were all "bananas" so we couldn't understand the meaning of the Chinese characters above.



The girls made sure the doors were securely locked!



Of course the best man has to endure some of the torture, from the looks of it, he seems rather happy with it.





Of course no games is without the "test of strength" challenge.



As well as test of stomach strength!







After the tea pouring ceremony, we decided on some impromptu portrait shots in Renaissance hotel.

















These photos were the ones I used for the express slideshow and I have plenty more photos to be processed!
