“The love of a family is life’s greatest blessing”. This is especially true for Amanda. She has always maintained a warm and intimate relationship with her family, and it was on this important day that she felt the most love and support from them. You can feel the warm, loving atmosphere when you see the families of the bride and the groom share their joyful laughter and tears of happiness while celebrating the most memorable day of their loved ones.  It is these heartfelt emotions that wedding photos are meant to capture, and this has always been my motto.

When it comes to photography, the most important thing is not about earning money. It is about your passion to help people turn their happiest moments into works of art that will last forever. Amanda was originally referred to another photographer who charged a lot, yet upon meeting him, she realized he had neither the enthusiasm nor passion in the job. This is why she hired me as her wedding photographer in the end, as she could feel the happiness of the moment just by looking at my work. What an honour it is to have people appreciate my work! This feeling is much more rewarding than cold hard cash!

The wedding reception was held at Island Shangri-La, which is a popular venue for taking wedding photos because of its beautiful interior design. I have always suggested my clients to have their wedding portraits taken inside the hotel instead of outside, as there is just something special about hotel lighting that creates such a romantic atmosphere that accentuates the beautiful wedding gown. It also saves the couple the time and energy from going around finding a nice spot outside! More importantly, as the wedding is held inside the hotel, isn’t it more meaningful to have your portrait taken in the wonderful place where all the magic happens?

Time really flies. I still remember when I first met Lucosa where she invited me to shoot her portrait.  From shooting her portrait to taking her graduation pictures, who knew nearly ten years later, she would give me the opportunity to capture the most important moment of her life: her wedding.  It is a great honour to know that Lucosa entrusted me with the great responsibility of encapsulating all her most beautiful memories, and it is a pleasure to have known her not only as a client, but as a dear friend.

Although Lucosa and Ken’s wedding was in a rush, with only ten minutes for me to have their wedding pictures taken at their hotel, we were still able to capture the wonderful moment in a manner of minutes. As always, quality is better than quantity!

Apart from being a beautiful bride, Lucosa is also a very gifted painting designer. As a person who has no talent in drawing, I was especially amazed by her unique hand-painted dolls. You can take a look at her work at http://www.lucosawong.com.

+It was my first time at the Catholic Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. What a monumental and stunning place!

+

+

+

+Unfortunately it was raining that day, so we took the opportunity after the ceremony to take their wedding portrait outside the cathedral.

Being enquired by many couples: ‘Any recommended scenic spots in HK are good for the pre-wedding photo?’ My answer is: ‘instead of those photo-taking hotspots, how about consider the places which having special meanings to you both. I always believe that every place has its own ultimate areas.  No matter where do you choose, good pics can also be captured.  The key points are the skill of handling the lighting set up and precisely to capture the face expression of the couple. One of my clients -Winnie & Patrick had chosen a place which I’ve never taken pre-wedding photo before.

Venue was a bridge at Shatin Central Park(沙田中央公園), believe that you should have a “wowed” response about that. Yes, it’s a very common place for all of us, but it’s such meaningful for Winnie & Patrick. Patrick told me that they left many footprints there when returning home after dating before.  Even though the path is short, but they’ve talked in that couple minutes, it was such a precious moment.
