Junxiang + Shuyun union

Gilbert — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 07:50:50 +0000

I could see the joy in Shuyun’s eyes when she looked at me. She sees my joy in weddings and the kind of mood that I surrounded myself in whenever I find a moment to capture and be in the thick of the action to document their beautiful day. Its always a great privilege to access to your lives and capture this important moment that you and your family will cherish forever. It may be cliche from my lips, but I do hold this thought deep in my heart and always wanted to remind everyone to clam down and enjoy the process, the hustle & bustle, and the underlying aspect of each tradition that is played out. I got an awesome reception from the banquet manager at Mandarin Orchard hotel! We had a 10 minute dinner but our team were served by no less than 4 staff who were avery attentive to our needs. Junxiang the ever clam and quietly confident groom, excludes a glowing smile and almost ever time I looked at him! Its was a very warm and joyous feeling, enjoy the coverage!

Cecily + Hock Leng wedding celebrations

Gilbert — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 07:25:14 +0000

There are the first day highlights of Cecily & Hock Leng intimate, loud and warm wedding celebrations at the Jade Restaurant @ The Fullerton Hotel! We started our day at the Fullerton Hotel as we await Hock Leng to pick up the bride! We were reprimanded by the nearby hotel guests on our noise level but that did not dampen our spirits one bit. After negotiations, the couple were finally united and we proceed around for prayers, tea ceremony and luncheon. Hock Leng was jubilant after their wedding vows and pump his fist into the air with gusto! The families held a cosy dinner with very warm relatives who took turns toasting and a company of very close friends made the night very memorable. its was an awesome start for us as we gotten almost entire team involved in the shoot!

Post Wedding celebrations @ Post Bar

Gilbert — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 06:36:38 +0000

We were at the Post bar @ Fullerton Hotel to celebrate Hock Leng & Cecily’s post wedding celebrations with their close friends and business associates. The dim ambience sets a perfect mood for their party, which was perfectly crafted by Denise and Sylvia of Idea Inn! Wedding guests were treated to corpus amount of alcohol, which seem to me the main course of the night! For the technical notes, Its was really tough to stay away from the spotlight yet be close enough to be in the thick of the action. Focusing was a stain to my gear and we had to set our lights away from the camera to get a moodful effect. Luckily Jimmy was adventurous and we create this set of fun, yet personal images. Please enjoy our coverage!

Tze Ying + Alvin = Pure Bliss

Pure bliss was the word when Alvin laid his eyes on his bride Tze Ying after all the gatecrashing session he and his bros went though. Both were so delighted that its was finally their day! I spent the entire morning surrounded by friends and relatives showering their attention on the couple. I felt so personally connected and involved alongside Zech from Substance Films what our “Alvin” was joining the club. There is always added pleasure shooting someone you know and i use this to my advantage and made my images even more intimate. Enjoy the coverage as we await the evening coverage from Sam!

Shanghai Night with Neil & Kimarie

Gilbert — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 03:35:46 +0000

Its was an observation from Gwen & Jonathan’s wedding earlier the year I spotted this loving couple that led us an opportunity to document Neil & Kimarie’s wedding celebrations alongside with Mimi from Wedding Acts! It was an robust group with everyone dressed up in their shanghai theme best and enjoying a great time at Ming Jiang. We started our day at Hyatt Hotel where Neil picks Kimarie up and after the tea ceremony was performed, we made our way to St Teressa for a couple blessing. The evening was the highlight of the day where colourful feathers, jewel coloured cocktail dresses, cigars and fake moustaches accented the night! Enjoy our coverage!

WeiKang & Cheryl visited me almost a year ago and shared with us their intent of their union and made us very excited and happy for them! Its was partly so as we have documented Cheryl’s Sister Charlotte slightly 2 years ago and it was one exciting wedding! We had great fun and managed to snare lots of coverage for their wedding as well. It was also a bigger wedding whereby Weikang’s as well as Cheryl’s Dads had invited thier “kampong”, old friends and neighbours that seen the couple grow since young. The gate crushing is rather funny as it involves both sexes from both sides and everyone was very game and humour was the theme. Please enjoy our coverage! Gowns by Silhouette, Makeup by Gin Tan
