Kelvin & Esther

Congratulations Kelvin and Esther!!

Their wedding was definitely the most cultural wedding I've had the pleasure to photograph to date. I learned so much about chinese-traditions and customs through documenting their big day, and I have to say it was definitely eye-opening! :) I'm a rather curious person you see, so all the new things I got to witness on the day was certainly candy to my eyes! A grrrreat experience!!

And below are a few of my favourite shots from the day:

This is one of the bride's good friends. She was such a joy to capture on camera because of her lovely smile! She was always laughing and had such a sunshine-filled delighted look on her face :) here she is peeping in and telling the bride the groom is on his way to pick her up!

Bridal preparation shots. Always a beautiful moment and definitely one of my favourite parts of a wedding day at any job I shoot at! This one was no exception :)

Here is Esther, on her way to the groom's house to do the tea ceremony. This is probably one of my top favourite shots of the day. Isn't she stunning! Brides like Esther make our jobs so easy! :

While the tea ceremony is normally a busy time of passing tea cups around, here is a slightly different moment during the tea ceremony where the bride and groom were holding hands for the slightest moment. I think its really sweet :)

Handing red packets to the kids. This is always a fun filled moment - kids always have a way of bringing joy into all situations. No matter how stressed a bride or groom is on the day, come this time, there is sure to be laughter!
