Andrea + Christoph
July 1, 2010 | Filed Under Prewedding/Engagement Sessions | 3 Comments
While I was in Mexico shooting for Paola and Karsten’s wedding, I have the great opportunity to meet their friends, Andrea and Christoph who had a casual portraiture session with me. It was their first time having photos taken by a professional photographer and they were asking for opinions what should they wear. It was really an honor to be able to help them out. And as for posing, I often tell my clients to be as casual and comfortable so that they look more natural in front of my camera. We had some fun shoots and the colors of building in Mexico really put an ease for me in looking for nice locations. Oh yeah, and I almost forgot, Andrea and Christoph decided to hire me to shoot for their wedding coming September in Munich, Germany. It was another honor to me as they brought their initial wedding date forward so that I could be there to document their wedding. Thanks guys and I can’t wait to be there during Octoberfest in September! Before that, let us feast on some of their photos taken in Queretaro, Mexico.
While we were shooting, this Mexican kid just stood there looking at them…
They were quite stiff at first in front of camera but after a while, they got notti…or was it I told them to… 
loved this!!!
having fun with Christoph’s iphone!
laugh guys, just crack up and laugh!!!
loved your blue eyes, Andrea and will be seeing them again in September!! Can’t wait for it, and it is actually one week before my own wedding,
Siew Mun + Siew Yen = Stylish and Stunning

I have knew both Siew Yen and Siew Mun since two years back when I shot their friend’s wedding. Siew Yen is also a photography hobbyist and she wanted something stylish for her prewedding photos. I asked around and managed to find this train yard in Klang (which is also a common playground for other photographers) which was very suitable for the shoot. It was a very hot and sunny session and most of us got sunburnt during that session. I would like to thank Veralyne for showing me to that place and also friends of Siew Mun and Siew Yen who were there to help. Also much thanks to Hanna Liew for her profesional make up artist job even though she is pregnant and have to ride the train with us. Here are some of the photos that were taken that day:
A playful shoot to start with for this post
Got this lovely lace umbrella from Mexico and thanks to Siew Yen for displaying such patience with me on this pose, 
Siew Mun in his stunning wedding suit…
Yes, this is my fav…stunning!
After the hot session in the morning, we continued some casual portraits in a carpark at the place I stayed (used to be).
They are so in love…
I will be shooting their wedding next weekend! Can’t wait for it,
ZA proposed!!!

I have been lagging in posting blogs, I know…I am still a wedding photographer and still shooting wedding, if you are doubtful, . In this post of mine, I would like to share what I have been busy with, which is preparing for my own wedding. It would not be a huge one, but something which is intimate and warm spend with our close family and friends.
Before anything else, this was what happened during the proposal which took place last year. Few good friends of mine, Adam, Kenneth, Anna-Rina and Jon were there to document this memorable moment for us – me and my fiancee, Amelyn. I am very grateful for their help and encouragement. The photos below were what was shot by the gang back then, and we loved it a lot.
Awaiting her flight back from Singapore…
Anna-Rina as the videographer…
Jon Low, who just flew back from Australia, joining us, thanks bro!
Adam Ong, who initiated the proposal, thanks bro for your guts!
And Kenneth Tan (photo taken from video clip), and he won the one-two-juss between Adam, thanks bro for the photos.
And me with the handmade butterfly shaped proposal ring…
When Amelyn walked out from the arrival gate, there was when Adam shouted her name and proposed! Look at her surprise reaction.
Still figuring who this boy was…Amelyn have only met Adam once…
Loved how Adam reacted in this photo….and Amelyn was frantically trying to get in touch with me…
and I think I just got on my knees and did I say Will you marry me before putting on that ring? oops….
Loved these set of photos….
yes, we are both big laughers…
We both loved this photo a lot…
This year I am very thankful that I have a lovely wife, have moved into a lovely warmth house, preparing for our wedding ceremony in Bali, shooting overseas wedding, and also local weddings which I still and am adore doing it, met new friends, have the encouragement from my family, and passed my Masters! Yippee, I am really really thankful.
Herein, I am posting a video where I did a second propose to Amelyn, where I sang (off tune Making Memories of Us) to her and playing guitar at the same time which I sucked at it and learned less than 10 days. Thanks to Edmund Lee for his crash course…
