Julian & Jessie

December period was perhaps my busiest month. I had a couple of weddings all during the first part of December before my long break towards the end of the year. Julian & Jessie's was the first and what a nice and cosy wedding to start of a busy month.

Chew Yan & Jing Jie

This is really one of those days where we had extreme ends of the weather. It started sweltering hot in the morning and ended up raining cats and dogs so much so that we almost had to cancel the second part of our shoot. Thankfully, the rain stopped just enough for us to get all the shots we wanted.

Shao Fung & Stephanie

This is probably one of the grandest and most elaborate wedding setup I've ever seen at the Capella. Simply so much details and so many things to shoot so much so that we didn't know where to start when we first saw it. One might say this is really a good problem to have.

Lomography Belair

The 2 cameras I was using to showcase the Belair medium format camera during the Belair Launch yesterday (10 Jan 2013) at the Lomography Gallery Store Singapore.

Daryl & Elona

This is my first actual day wedding in Singapore after a lot of travelling during September & October period and I must say it feels good to be back. I did Daryl & Elona's pre-wedding shoot sometime in early October, so this was really a continuation from where we left out.

Esmond & Xin Mei's FineArt prints

Another set of photo frames ready for collection. I simply love the classic thick black frames. They never go out of style. Printed on archival grade Hahnemühle Photo Rag fine art paper.

Esmond & Xin Mei / Nagano & Tokyo

This would be my maiden trip to Nagano and I really hope to be back some time soon. Nestled at the south of Kanto region and just a mere 1 hour Shinkansen ride away from Tokyo station, Nagano is just a stone's throw away from urban Tokyo with so much to offer. You have everything here - gorgeous backdrops, countryside tranquility, a slice of its rich history and old world charm that reminded me so much of Miyazaki's animated films. But above all, I have many people to thank for without them, this shoot wouldn't have been possible. Daniel, my photographer friend based in Nagano has been instrumental in helping me with the location scouting. He knew exactly what I wanted. And also Maho and Ayako for being so patient with us and sticking out with us throughout the entire shoot in Nagano. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful folks at Edohara Pension who have been so accommodating during our stay there. Like how Esmond puts it, "Just when you thought they have done all they could have done, they surprise you with yet another gesture of hospitality time and time again". In fact, that's how I would sum up my trip.
