Derek & Grace Wedding Day

13-Hours Marathon & Amateur Photographers

13-Hours Marathon

In this posting, I would like to mention about the last wedding that I attended - Derek and Grace.

Well, this is a chinese and christian wedding which I always enjoyed and being the official photographer, I went through a gruelling task of being on the job for 13 hours. Let me share with you how was the schedule is like:

- morning ceremony (8am to 12:30noon)

- church ceremony and wedding reception (3pm to 11:30pm)

Yes, it's hard as I had to do the wedding reception slideshow on the spot that combines both HD (high definition video) clips and photo image together. Thank God everything ends well and I ended up with over 1900 images for that day!

Amateur Photographers
I have been patient with clients who has friends or someone whom they engaged has their own photographers. I would prefer them not to be involved in the actual day as this is the most important day for each client and when these "amateurs" are excited, they will keep snapping away and blocking my way. The worst part both bride and groom are looking at separate ways while I snap. This is so ridiculous. So if any of you plan to have a "back-up" photographers, please bear in mind that if I ever miss any shots, please do not blame me for missing the shots yea...

Sam + Rowena Wedding Reception

Pre-Wedding Album

It has been awhile since I last posted my work in this web blog. I have many prospects wanted to view how the pre-wedding album looks like. Here it is... Do take note that I do not encourage or promote "photobook" as many other photographers do as I do not like the flimsy quality.

Indian Wedding Destination - Bali Island, Indonesia

Once again William G. images appeared in an international website. Go to:
http://www.indoindians.com/index.php/2010061417643/Poonam-Sagar/indian-wedding-destination-bali

Indoindians.com is the # 1 information portal for Indians in Indonesia. Its partnership program aims to provide its visitors a complete single window service for their information needs in Indonesia.

The article with two of my images was written for Indians to have their weddings in Bali Island (Indonesia), a romantic getaway island and yes, it's a wonderful place to have your wedding ceremony. I will be back again in Bali this coming October and by that time, the weather will be much cooler. The last time I was there in March, I almost melt under the hot sun! But hey, its such a wonderful place that I will always be back there every year for pre-wedding, post-wedding or actual wedding day photography!

Pre-Wedding Album

Life has been interesting lately until I have to block my schedule for the whole month of June except for two weddings which I will have been committed to. Being an actual wedding day photographer and pre-wedding photographer, I have been committed to do the best and giving the best to all my clients.

For those who doesn't know me very well, I have a few businesses which always make my time or schedule full. The month of March-April, July-August and Nov-Dec is my peak period but it will not be shown in my schedule in this web blog. If you ever step-in my office during these period, you may not be able to talk to me easily as it will be flooded with deviantart.com members.

Anyways, here's a spread page from Derek & Grace wedding album to share with all my clients, fans and friends out there in the world. Their wedding is next week and they are pretty busy preparing for their wedding now. Ken (my videographer) and I will be busy that day and for those who calls me during the wedding, please do call me back in the afternoon or leave me a SMS and I will call you back. Oh yes, I do have a studio with 5 studio flash and a dozen backdrops but I do not use them because I always capture "real" locations and that leaves me the greatest satisfaction as what you see below.
