The end of 2009 with the beginning of Melissa & Ashwin

Monday, February 8th, 2010

A beautiful and blessed year, 2009 ended with a packed and busy schedule with covering couple like Melissa and Ashwin over the entire month. I got to know Ashwin exactly 11 years ago in a leadership camp back in college days. I was one of the representative of the student councilors of KDU Penang and Ashwin was a rep picked by the School of Hotel & Tourism. The 7 hours of bus ride back from Skudai, Johore went through like a breeze. The journey to Johore was at quiet and when our journey back, we couldn’t keep our mouths shut after bonding with everyone, which some we still keep in contact until today. I still remember Daniel missed the trip because he had 2 bowls of soup “kambing” (lamb) and was down with fever and nose bleed.

Melissa and Ashwin got to know each other through work and…. (yes you make assumptions of the rest. Shari made detailed explanation about how they met). Melissa can make really good soups and Ashwin was pretty much my partner in crime in all our food adventures. The day came and I was honored to be asked to be the main photographer for his big day, covering 5 events. For the record, he is the single customer that has booked me exclusively for his entire wedding event… (no one has beat his record so far). One marriage proposal shoot, one registration shoot, one Indian engagement shoot, one chinese ceremony actual day wedding shoot & the wedding dinner.

To a fruitful beginning *wink wink*.. and thanks for having the trust to engage me for an exclusive coverage for your wedding. Here are some of the pictures taken from the Indian ceremony only. I’m rushing to finish another few shoots taken previously. More updates to come…

And the rest of the regular blog stalkers, sorry about the silent treatment for the past few months! hehe..

Counting my lucky stars.. (post #1)

In the course of my short photography career (began in 2005 that is), I’ve been pretty lucky to have the opportunity to shoot a wide range of people. I have also been very privileged enough to be called upon more than once to cover my own company events covering people who have changed how the electronic world is today.

Family members young and old alike, couples in wedding reception, hundreds of portraits for members of Trinity Penang, bishop & pastors and even one time a monk (in Tracy & Jimmy’s wedding in Tawau, Sabah), CEOs, company directors, some very influential authors and dignitaries. Well, here’s my recent and proud additional to the list..

and Dato’ Kok Wee Kiat.

Our Prime Minister was supposed to be there but could not make it because of an overseas assignment. Thank you everyone who have made it possible. You know who you are.
