I love shooting babies; taking their first few pictures within the days they enter the world. Its one of the purest candid you can ever get from 'posing' them. Here, baby Jethro, 35 days old, giving me a Hawaii cheer!

a memory of pink
i like the softness of this image, and it shows the subject need not be in focus to convey the mood. This is taken from Ray & Rachel's wedding last Sunday, I try to add more images on the way!

a great gown
There are just so many things we could do for pre-wedding shots, here is one picture that we really like, taken just 5 days ago.
more pictures to share from this shoot we did later!
pre-weddings for the documentary style photog
There used to be this hype of photojournalist type of documenting a wedding. It is a buzz 2 years ago and everyone one wants to catch on the bandwagon. However most of the work I see has a blend of traditional (posed) and shooting the wedding as it happens.
For me, I was so blessed to be 2nd shoot under a great mentor and friend and his work gave me a great insight into what photo-journal is all about. Its not so about shooting without any eye contact of your subjects or trying to trigger your shutter at every corner, but rather is to define a moment in time that holds significant to subject matter.
Still confused? Put in simply, the defining of moments, like my photography, I love to show viewers the thick of the action, the tip of a great expression or the point of the action.
However when we actual day photographers want to recreate the same style for pre-weddings, mostly we take a different role.
We direct and give instructions on creating the pictures, and aid the couples with their poses, for me giving them a scene to ponder and act.
