When people think of weddings, what comes to mind is normally a romantic day where the bride wearing a beautiful gown walks down the aisle in a fancy church. In fact, since Hong Kong is after all a Chinese society, many couples preserve many Chinese traditions in their weddings, making it even more unique. For me, I really enjoy taking pictures at traditional Chinese weddings too as the bright colours can accentuate the joy and celebratory atmosphere of the wedding. The pictures can also bring out the Chinese culture and values such as respect for the elders, which may not be so prominent in western weddings.
At Victoria and Eric’s wedding, they certainly preserved many Chinese traditions. One of the most eyecatching elements would certainly be her beautiful red qipao – there is so much elegance and beauty in this oriental setting that I wish to capture in all my photos. I’m so glad that I was able to be a part of their memorable day, and I look forward to photographing more Chinese weddings in the future!
