A warm welcome

Hello and congratulations on your up coming wedding!

Thank you for visiting my website. From all the photos and posts you've already read, I'm sure you can tell my passion and appreciation for weddings. What I love about photographing a wedding is being able to witness the joy and the amalgamation of two lives.

My belief and approach is simple. In a humble sense, I will document your wedding in the manner of a journalist trying to tell a story that will become history. My emphasis is, unobtrusively, fitting myself into your shoes and together we create an everlasting storybook that you can connect with.

If you have questions or just want to chat, feel free to contact me.

Happy Wedding Planning!

The ingredients in these tea are usually lotus seed and dates, which implies “Together for a hundred years” and “Having many children”. Parents and elderly usually (although not set in stone) to give red pocket and gifts to the new couple.

Here are a few of my favourite photos from the past year
