Agnel & Renee opted for a different look for their pre-wedding portraits. They wanted vintage, grunge and high fashion so we decided to have their shoot at a workshop and by the railway tracks. We had to play with different lighting setups to create the high fashion and dynamic look. It was a fun, exciting and something out of the ordinary for us. Enjoy the pics below.
Sze was messing around with his film cameras as well…here are some shots.
Bands : Unabashed, Army of Three, Under Headlights, FourLetterStory, Altered Frequency, Largest Rabbits on Tour
Love the B&W film results here. The contrast and grains reminds me all the old rock concert photos that I have seen of Hendrix, The Doors, Led Zep, Joplin, etc. Shots are taken with Ilford Delta 3200 film on a Nikon F5 camera.
“….and they lived happily ever after….”. We were privilege to document the ending of the well-known fairytale where Jack & Jill finally got married and they lived happily ever after.
Garden weddings in Malaysia can be a risky decision as the weather here can be quite unpredictable. Even with a good weather, most of the time it is a little too hot and humid for comfort. As for Jack and Jill, they were blessed with great weather as it started to drizzle before the wedding. It has been raining everyday, especially during the evenings but God held back the rain and the clouds sheltered the crowd from the heat.
We had an amazing time documenting their wedding. We even had Sze documenting the entire wedding on film! Talk about old skool, with his toilet converted as a temporary dark room for his film processing. Check out the previous link on some film photos he uploaded.
Enjoy the same-day edit slideshow and the pictures below
Images shot with35mm and 120 format Kodak Tri-x 400, Fuji Neopan 400, Fuji Pro 160S, Ilford Delta 3200 (Why film?? Because it feels different from digital images, because it’s more challenging, because we can?Â
Here’s the slideshow and some featured still shots
This was one of our 1st few shoots in January 2010. Sern Yi and Michelle got married in the Sunway Convention Center. It was a super fun coverage and we manage to slot on a short portrait center with scenes right smack in the middle of Sunway Pyramid shopping center. We got them to stand with mannequins in front of a shop display . We also had the privilege to meet Daniel who was Michelle’s brother who’s another fellow photographer www.danselphotography.com
We were all super excited about this shoot for Hansen and Elona. It was a beautiful place with beautiful light. Super weather and the day ended with an outdoor tea ceremony. Also check out the beautiful Bentley for wedding car.
We’ve been slow for blog updates for us. Finally catching up with back logs.
This was a simple portrait shoot we did for Hansen and Elona in Melbourne a few months back before their wedding day. We are in love with the sun, the sky and the weather in Melbourne.
We are still getting huge backlog from blog entries. Working hard this week to catch up with it. Here are some highlights from Albert and Rachel’s amazing wedding day. Ceremony was held in St. Peter’s in Bangsar. You can see in alot of the photos both Albert and Rachel dancing. That’s because they are amazing dancers
We also manage to fit in a short portrait session for them in the afternoon. It was shot in the Taylor’s Lakeside Campus. I believe that we were the 1st ever to do any sort of portrait in the campus
We will be having a booth in the Cyberview Lodge Resort & Spa Wedding Fair on the 6th June 2010. Feel free to pop by to visit us and other great vendors
There will be lucky draw and prizes for early birds.
Here’s a quick post of Samuel & Jin Ming’s wedding that we covered. Samuel and Jin Ming, both who have been living overseas have decided to have their wedding back in Malaysia with their relatives and friends. It was a simple yet intimate wedding. Here are some shots from that day.
Both Kenneth and Jaclyn were my highschool buddies and their wedding has allowed me to reconnect with many friends that I’ve lost touched with. As Jaclyn’s Dad was a teacher in our school, the dinner felt almost like an alumni night, as a portion of the guests in the dinner reception were my school teachers and friends. During the day, I was off the hook of being one of the ‘heng tai’ since I was their photographer. It was just ‘fun’ to be able just to watch the ‘heng tais’ being tortured while I’m there laughing away. It was a great and fun time.
Here are some photos that we would love to share …
We were all geared up for the portrait session and were hoping real hard that there would be great light with good weather. Well, the opposite came to pass. It was raining cats and dogs just before we started. What a session to begin with! No light, wet ground, limited time…and we have a portrait shoot with 3 ladies. We waited for the rain to stop and started off shooting in the shelter with the remaining time we have left.
It was the time where I also tested the Pocket Wizards FlexTT5. I’m relief that it worked as it should for the range I needed. I had the worst combination of flashes, the 580exII and the 430ex which RF interference was known to limit the new Pocket Wizard’s range severely. In most of the shots, I had my 580exII mounted on a softbox as my main light while the 430ex provided the kick light. The range extension method listed in Pocket Wizard’s website did help to extend my range, especially with my 430ex being the furthest from my camera.
Here are some of my fav shots from that day.
Make-up artist : Rachel Chun
There was a slight hint of a warm sunset during the end of day. For the two shots below, I had the main light gelled with a a full cut CTB and my white balance set to 10,000K to accentuate the sunset in the background.
We have not been updating the blog as frequent as we should as we have been rushing for deadlines. Here are some pictures of Alvin & Jessica’s wedding which was held in January. This time round, we had some fun with portraits taken in a fire station. Special thanks to our Bomba team for granting us the special privilege even without prior notice .
It was a pleasure to meet Paul & Dinah again, this time round as their photographers for their AD wedding. Though both of them are residing in Melbourne, they have decided to exchange their vows in Malaysia so that their relatives and friends are able to be a part of their joyous occasion. We didn’t have any torturing games for the groom’s buddies this time round, lucky for them . Both of them decided to ‘unveil’ themselves only during the final moments when Dinah walked down the church aisle with Dad.
Special thanks to John from FOS for second-shooting with me. Do check out their pre-wedding portraits which we covered several months earlier too at http://www.creativeclicks.com.my/blog/?p=1913
Here are some shots from that day.
The flare came from the jeweleries that they were peeping at
I am still on a pursuit on shooting more film this year.
Here are some random shots of Darren’s dog Coco the hyper beagle.
Shots are taken with a Nikon F5 on Fuji ISO200 Film. the F5 is still an amazing camera after all these years. The AF is still spot on for a camera after so many years. This camera comes with 8fps. It’s even faster than some of the ‘other’ full frame cameras out there today . Alot of people out there says that the F5 is the last of the Ultimate Film Camera.
From the earlier sneak peaks of the photos in B&W film, here are some digital shots Ken & Joy’s wedding . It was a simple yet intimate wedding. We had some time to bring both Ken & Joy for an outdoor portrait session as their schedule was relatively relaxed, considering how tight it can be to have both church ceremony and the chinese culture practices during the same day. Here are some favourites from the day.
For the past several weeks, we have been really packed with multiple shoots hence the delayed blog update. Here’s a quick post of a wedding that we recently covered. Stay tune for more wedding blog entries soon!
