My dear friend Smith asked me to capture photos of his nephew’s 1 month old party.
It was hosted in a rather interesting place, BrewBakers, first time i had jugs of beer during a child’s 满月(1st Month). No worries alcohol was strictly for adults only! A section was blocked off for this event. There was lots of kids , it’s always fun to photograph them when they are playing, they completely ignore you and let you photograph them.

Give me the ball!

ballon got stuck on my head!

Oh My God!

It was really great fun and i enjoyed myself.
Will see jordon again at his 1 year old birthday! See you soon!

Nah it wasn’t a real bridal, it was the photos from a short outdoor shoot from the actual day itself. We got some real nice photos so it deserves it’s own entry!

My Favoruite shot of the day

Didn't know this would have turned out so well since it was blazing hot and this was the last shot here.

Ok... There wasn't a breeze we flipped the veil.

The Groom is only a prop in this photo.....

It was a pity that we didn’t do a bridal shoot while i was in New York , i guess the results would have been even more fantastic.

A Year has passed since Photographing their Wedding over in the USA, they had another wedding event for the bride’s family in Singapore.
This time around the man from the States had to do Gate Crashing! A whole new experience for the groom.

Morning Preperation

Gate Crashing!

It's not a real cake but i like the design

They look so much in bliss!

They have a series of outdoor photos which i feel deserve it’s own entry, which i will post at a later time.

It was a Sweet and Simple affair. Morning gatecrashing and wedding lunch @ Raffles Hotel. They had a touching speech during their lunch, tears were dropped, even i was teary….. Another reason why i love weddings.

Volkswagen Classic as bridal car! Nice!

What do i love about Photographing food is the option to consume it later!

Owner/Chef Fabio of La Braceria Pizza and Grill asked me to photograph his Italian Cuisines and his restaurant at Greendale Ave. As i was not a expert on Italian, nor i can say i’m a expert in any form of food, i learn many things about the types of food and their characteristics about it. Contrary to most popular believe most of the food came out cooked 100% , what you see is what you get, so i had no problem chomping down on some of the dishes in between while the next dish was being prepared. For Photographic reasons some came out almost raw e.g. Steaks , our dear chef will take it back to the grill to finish off the cooking so greedy me can consume it.

Grilled Mushrooms

Restaurant Interior

If you find the Photos Appetizing maybe you can drop by his place for dinner or lunch.

They came from Indonesia to Singapore for wedding purchases and though why not take some pictures while we were there.
Adam and Lilies contacted me to do a simple Pre Wedding shoot for them. Even thou Adam couldn’t speak a word of English we managed to get some fantastic photos.

Bali, a place with rich and unique culture. A great background for Photography with it’s beaches and cliff scenery.
Great place to lay back and forget about your worries. Sadly we were on a tight schedule and before i actually get to do anything i was on the way back to Singapore.

Let’s kick off with a beach scene comes with a free horse too.

Some Rocky action… Lots of rocks and nature to play with.

The local restarunts are friendly and more than willing to let you take pictures inside.

Looking forward to my next location. Hongkong at the end of year.

Finally I have a bit more time to uploaded this. I have been super busy with assignments, sorry about that.

Ryan is my friend’s bro-in-law where I happened to capture the few wedding of his sisters, it’s like seeing a child grow up that kind of happiness for him, as their “Family” wedding photographer, it’s my honour indeed. Right now there is only 1 sister left for me to capture her wedding, I am completed! hehe
